Feeding habits

Bedbugs are obligatory hematophagous (bloodsucking) insects. Most species only feed on humans when other prey are unavailable. They are normally out at night just before dawn, with a peak feeding period of about an hour before sunrise, but have been observed feeding during the day. Bedbugs are attracted to their hosts primarily by carbon dioxide, secondarily by warmth, and also by certain chemicals. They reach a detected host by crawling, or sometimes dropping from a height.

A bedbug pierces the skin of its host with two hollow feeding tubes. With one tube it injects its saliva, which contains anticoagulants and anesthetics, while with the other it withdraws the blood of its host. After feeding for about five minutes, the bug returns to its hiding place.

Although bedbugs can live for a year without feeding, they normally try to feed every five to ten days. When it's cold, bedbugs can live for about a year; at temperatures more conducive to activity and feeding, about 5 months.

At the 57th Annual Meeting of the Entomological Society of America in 2009, it was reported that newer generations of pesticide-resistant bedbugs in Virginia could survive only two months without feeding.

Predators

Natural enemies of bedbugs include the masked hunter (AKA "masked bedbug hunter"), cockroaches, ants, spiders, mites, and centipedes. The Pharaoh ant's (Monomorium pharaonis) venom is lethal to bedbugs. Rodents eat bedbugs, but bats do not, due to their distaste for the bedbug alarm pheromone, which is released when they are attacked. Biological control is not very practical for eliminating bedbugs from human dwellings.

News reports of bed bugs are on the rise. The Flathead County Health Office says its seen an increase in questions about the pests. Bed bugs are notoriously difficult to get rid of, and even if you can manage to kill them, their eggs can lie dormant for months before hatching. Pest controllers also report an increase in calls about them.I used to do, lets say 10 years ago, wed do only 1 or 2 a year, says Gary Stetson of American Pest Control. In the last 18 months, Im doing 1 to 3 a month. Thats 50 percent at least, maybe 60 percent more than 5 years ago.

Were told bed bugs dont spread disease like fleas, but just are still considered a public health issue because they itch, and scratching them can lead to infection.If you suspect you have them, wash your sheets and curtains and vacuum your carpet. You can also try over-the-counter pesticides, but professional pest control usually has the most success against them.

In research performed by the University of Florida, NESDCA-certified canines averaged a 98% accuracy rate in detecting the odor of live bed bugs and viable eggs in a controlled hotel room experiment. Human visual inspections are estimated to be only 17 to 30% accurate.

Bed bugs can hide under carpets, in baseboards, inside mattresses and box springs, in electronics, and behind walls--areas that are virtually impossible for a human to inspect without dismantling the room's contents.

* Click here to see the University of Florida's recent research publication: "Ability of Bed Bug - Detecting Canines to Locate Live Bed Bugs and Viable Bed Bug Eggs."

We'll save you time and money!

Our canine teams can search an average-sized room in just two to three minutes without damage to furnishings or disruption. Since areas of possible infestation can be pinpointed, this can eliminate the need to treat the entire premises.

Follow-up inspections can verify if treatment was successful!

Pesticide applications are rarely 100% effective after the first application. Since our canines are trained to detect only the odor of live bed bugs, the remains of a previous infestation (old evidence) will not cause our dogs to falsely alert.

Let K9 Scent Detection partner with you to protect your reputation!

We can also work with your current pest management company to increase detection accuracy. Our canine team can detect the presence of the odor of even a single bed bug. Remember, early detection is essential!

The likelihood of bed bugs infesting an office, car, terminal, bus or light rail is very low?

It is important to remember the difference between an infestation and a sighting. Bed bugs may be spotted wherever people go, but they breed where people are sleeping or are inactive throughout the night. So places like offices, schools, and vehicles are not supportive environments for them to infest. If they are sighted in one of these areas, they are likely to die in a short time and a true infestation is highly unlikely to develop.

The city of Phoenix can respond to bed bug sightings on city-owned property. Heres where to go with bed bug problems:
