Worried About Bed Bugs?

Bed bugs are small, flat, oval insects that were thought to be a pest problem of the past. Unfortunately, we are now experiencing a widespread recurrence of bed bugs in Hawaii, all across the United States and abroad. The most significant factors that explains their return is the increase in international travel and the decrease in the availability of effective pesticides, such as DDT. Often unknowingly introduced into a property on luggage after a trip, on clothing, in used furniture and even directly on people, bed bugs are posing a real challenge for property owners and managers in Honolulu and for all Oahuand Big Island.

At Sandwich Isle Pest Solutions, we understand that a bed bug infestation and the resulting bed bug bites can cause unhappy guests, bad publicity, lost room revenue, loss of property, costly pesticide treatments and client lawsuits.

Bed bug bite treatment tips – Bed Bug Treatment Site

Posted on January 4, 2014 by Pest Controller Click Here For Article

As if having bed bugs in your bed isnt bad enough, having them bite you while youre sleeping just adds insult to injury. Bed bug bites, depending on the individual person, can be very painful and irritating. For some people, they might not even know they were bitten. If you are one of those unlucky individuals that react strongly to bed bug bites, there are a few bed bug bite treatment options.

Before you treat a bed bug bite, be sure the bite is from an actual bed bug. Unfortunately, bed bugs are not the only bugs that can get in your bed and bite you. Bed bug bites look much like bites from other insects such as mosquitoesand fleas. You will generally find bites on one area of your body. The bites will generally be red and of various sizes.

One way to confirm the bites are from bed bugs is to check your bed, bedsheets and pillows for signs of bed bugs. Detecting bed bugs in your bed will help you confirm the bites are in fact from bed bugs.

Here are a few bed bug bite pictures to help with your identification:

In most bed bug bite cases, over the counter medications work great for bed bug bite treatment. These options are inexpensive and effective.

Hydro-cortisone creams are highly effective for most people bitten by bed bugs. Just follow the directions on the bottle and apply as directed. Hydro-cortisone relives itching and swelling.

Bed bug bites – What do they look like? – THERMAL REMEDIATION …

Posted on January 4, 2014 by Pest Controller Click Here For Article

What do bed bug bites look likeand how can you initially be totally sure that the bites in question didnt come from another source, like fleas or spiders?

Bed bugs bites are often mistaken for other insect bites and rashes. Compared to other insect bites, bed bug bites usually form a linear or circular pattern on the exposed areas of the skin when sleeping such as legs, arms, neck, hand and face. Other insect bites such as mosquito and flea bites usually come in random. However, flea bites are usually seen on the ankles, wrists and behind the knees. Spider and mosquito bites are larger in size compared to bed bug bites and they swell quickly compared to the latter.

Bedbug bites vary dramatically between individuals.Some people do not respond at the start of an infestation and it may take many bites to get a response. Some people never get a bite response.If you wait till you get bites the problem may already be more advanced than you would care to imagine.

Bed bugs will not bite through materials so covering up will help avoid bites although exposed limbs and face may become an easy target.Experts believed that multiple bites in a pattern are caused by a disturbance in the feeding sequence of the insect. This happens when the victim moves or rolls over when the insect is sucking blood. It can also mean that the neighboring veins were easily accessed by the bed bugs. Studies show that bed bugs are attracted to carbon dioxide and body heat which makes humans their most susceptible victims.

When bed bug bites, they release an anti-coagulant to prevent an interruption in the bodys natural essence. The bugs also release anesthesia that numbs the skin when they suck blood from it. In just 3-5 minutes, bed bugs can already acquire their full meal. Bed bug bites are usually raised welts or small flat bites that can bring extreme redness and itchiness to the skin. However, there are bed bug bites that appear whitish or pinkish in color. It is important NOT to scratch the bites. They will fade and pass unless you scratch and damage the skin in which case secondary infection is common.

Treatment for bed bug bites:

One of the best ways to treat bed bug bites is to wash it in running lukewarm water for at least a minute using an antibacterial soap.Apopular treatment for bed bug bites is baking soda and water formed into a paste, that you then smear on the bites and let dry. Instructions are below.

1) Make sure to wash the bed bug bites with soap and water.

Bed bugs do not discriminate

Bed bugs do not discriminate

They may be associated with dirt and filth, but bed bugs do not show any type of discrimination.

Bed bugs have been found in the nicest homes and the fanciest hotels. In fact, they will set up home anywhere there are food sources, and those food sources are humans and pets.

Dr. Elisabeth Giedt, director of Continuing Education, Extension and Community Engagement at the Center for Veterinary Health Sciences at Oklahoma State University, said bed bugs can be found just about anywhere.

As you travel during the holiday season and other times during the year, always be on the lookout for these pesky creatures, Giedt said. Keep in mind bed bugs dont live on people or pets. They live in the environment and feed on you and your pets. Although theyre annoying and their bites can cause itching and skin irritation, they arent known to transmit diseases.

While bed bugs do not spend as much time on your pets as fleas, ticks, lice and mites, they still bite your pets. And your pet can serve as a taxi and bring them into your home. From there the pesky creatures can find their way to your pets bedding, as well as your own.

Look for signs of bed bugs along mattress seams, along baseboards, seams of clothing, behind bedframes, in curtains and your pets bedding. Giedt said if you find yourself in the midst of a bed bug infestation, contact a professional pest management service to help you develop a plan to get the bed bugs out of your home.

As far as your pet is concerned, you wont have to throw out Rovers bedding or stuffed toys. Launder the animals bedding in the hottest temperature setting, preferably at a minimum of 120 degrees Fahrenheit, she said. Set the dryer on the medium/high or high setting. If the materials cant be washed, but can be put in the dryer, put them in the dryer on medium to high heat for about 20 minutes. If the pets bedding has holes or tears, consider getting rid of it and replacing it with something new.

When looking for a bed bug preventive, such as what you use for fleas and ticks, make sure the label indicates it is intended for bed bugs. If bed bugs are not listed, the product may not be effective. Using the wrong pesticide, or using it incorrectly to treat for bed bugs, can make you and your pet sick.

Bed bugs can be difficult to eradicate, so its important to work with a professional. Its likely the treatment plan will include more than one visit, Giedt said. Bed bugs are tough critters, but if you stay diligent you can get them out of your home.
