Vancouver Bed Bug Removal & Control – Onsite Pest Control

Bedbugs are parasites that have the potential to infest houses and especially things such as beds and mattresses. They feed on human blood and their bite usually leaves a large, reddish and itchy wheal. In Vancouver, the best way to avoid bed bugs is to never introduce second-hand furniture in to your home that hasnt been thoroughly inspected.

Bed bugs are small, wingless insects that are found all over the world. They are a nocturnal parasite. This means they rest during the day time and become active at night. However, it is important to remember that bed bugs are highly opportunistic parasites because they can bite even during the day if they need to feed. They primarily feed on the blood of humans and usually hide in beddings or on mattresses. This gives them quick access to their preferred source of food.

Bed bugs have highly evolved mouth parts that can pierce through the human skin. Quite a large number of people dont respond to their bites because they are relatively painless. However, other bites can result in itchiness and red swelling.

Even though bed bugs have the ability to harbour diseases in their bodies, transmission of these diseases is highly improbable. They are also not dangerous unless the individual happens to be allergic to their bite. Having bed bugs is usually a stressing factor for most people in Vancouver and their bites tend to be highly irritating.
