Bed bugs, in their mature form, are about the size of a grain of rice. They are wider at the belly and wear a reddish-brown exoskeleton, which they will shed periodically during adulthood. They are a type of parasite, which feeds on human and animal blood at night, but they will hide away during the lighter daytime hours. Among their favorite hiding spots are the crevices of your mattress.
Though able to be seen with the naked eye, these little critters are very apt at concealing themselves. They will crawl between the mattress and box spring, behind the headboard, into dresser drawers, or even make their way into your pillow. Because they are very resilient and can live many months without a food source, bed bugs are very difficult to get rid of without the help of trained New Jersey bed bug control specialists such as Ross Environmental Solutions.
Many people have come to believe that memory foam mattresses are the way to go, in order to avoid an infestation of the dreaded bed bugs. However, that might not be the case. While many memory foam manufactures do make claims regarding the ability of the product to keep pests, such as dust mites and bed bugs away, the truth of the matter is that they are not as capable as advertised.
It is true that pest and termite control services New Jersey are not likely to find these insects buried within the foam that you sleep on, but that doesnt mean that they cant get to you while you sleep. Bed bugs do not generally live within the mattress regardless of which type you own. Instead, they stay on the surface, just hidden out of view and away from the light of day. They are just as likely to crawl beneath the memory foam mattress and remain there until you are sleeping cozily.
Rather than relying on the style of your mattress defending against an invasion of bed bugs, just keep your eyes open. Generally, these insects make their way into your home by hitching a ride on your luggage. They are frequently picked up in hotel and motel rooms. So, the next time you stay away overnight, check the bed before you lie down. Pull back sheets and comforters, so you can easily inspect the mattress. Look through the seams and any quilted areas. Lift it and look beneath it, as well. It is also a good idea to inspect dresser and bedside table drawers. Though bed bugs are fairly evident if they are around, they also leave other signs of their existence behind, including their shed exoskeletons, blood, and fecal deposits.
While the memory foam mattress might not save you from the visiting critters, some varieties of mattress do offer a particular benefit. Most mattresses have a quilted design in them, providing more area of the bugs to hide in. However, many memory foam mattresses have a perfectly flat surface, which makes it much easier to spot the pests and their baggage. So, if you were looking for another good reason to invest in the comfort of memory foam, then that might be the perfect thing to consider. If you have or suspect you have bed bugs in your home, contact Ross Environmental, your New Jersey bed bug removal experts right away.
