Good night, sleep tight, dont let the bed bugs bite. Youve heard the adage, right? While this may seem cute, bed bugs are not the product of fairy tales and happy endings. No, these parasitic insects actually feed on blood from humans and warm-blooded animals to survive. Like ticks, bed bugs are flat, circular, and reddish-brown in color. They are also quite tiny which makes finding them even harder.
Bed bugs arent exclusive to where you lay your head to sleep. They can be found almost anywhere including offices, grocery stores, hotels, and gyms. Theyre also pretty crafty and have been known to hide in luggage, clothing, and even on your body. They wait for the perfect chance to strike, often as you sleep, and can multiply quickly in optimal conditions.
Avid travelers should be particularly cautious with bed bugs as they run the risk of spreading possible infestations to other locations. Heres what to do:
Once inside your home, it can be difficult to control a bed bug infestation. Contact your local Orkin professional to schedule an inspection and customize a plan thats right for you. Using our integrated A.IM. protection approach to Assess your home, Implement solutions, and Monitor future problems, bed bugs wont know what hit them.
