Bedbug Information

What are Bedbugs ?

Bedbugs can be dark yellow, red or brown. Adults are around 5mm long.

Bedbugs can hide in many places, including on bed frames, mattresses, clothing, furniture, behind pictures and under loose wallpaper.

Signs of bedbugs include:


  • Bites – often on areas exposed while sleeping, like the face, neck and arms
  • Spots of blood on your bedding – from the bites or from squashing a bedbug
  • Small brown spots on bedding or furniture (bedbug poo)

Treatments and Preparation
 
We have now seen horror scenarios where people were diagnosed with ecsema only to be found upon inspection, to be a severe case of bedbugs. Bites on bites on bites. A few thousand on the bed between the matress and box spring. 

Never mind taking care of them yourselves. 

Most of our customers tried for months and spent several hundred of pounds on home "cures" only to still have to call us in and then spend several more.

Preparation

Prep exactly how we say. Do exactly what we ask. Any failures in getting rid of them is the customer not doing as we asked. 
Doesn't matter what way it is done, chemical, heat, or freeze, we can get rid of them but we need customers to cooperate. 

They are extremely disruptive to one's life. Lack of sleep. Stigma. Cost. Having your house tossed and torn apart, living out of bags and sometimes having to get rid of furniture and getting new. 

Just remember, they come in through the front door on people or in things. Most likely second hand things from an infested place. They bite in threes mostly, we call it breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and at night. 

You can inspect your own bed, they are not invisible. And not everyone reacts to the bites. Two sleeping in a bed, one might not react, the other be a mess. Both are getting bit, only one is reacting.

Bedbug Bites

Bedbug bites typically occur on the face, neck, hands or arms. They're typically found in straight lines across the skin.

The bites are not usually painful, and if you've not been bitten by bedbugs before, you may not have any symptoms.

If you have been bitten before, you may develop itchy red bumps that can last for several days.

Bedbug bites can be red and itchy. They're often in a line or cluster.

Some people have a reaction to the bites. They can be very itchy and there may be painful swelling.

A severe allergic reaction (anaphylaxis) is also possible but rare.

How you can treat bedbug bites

Bedbug bites usually clear up on their own in a week or so.

Things you can do include:

putting something cool, like a clean, damp cloth, on the affected area to help with the itching and any swelling
keeping the affected area clean
Do not scratch the bites to avoid getting an infection
