Youve got bed bugs? Weve got answers.

According to the news, bed bugs are everywhere.

Click onto a news website, watch the news on TV or pick up a newspaper, and youre likely to see or hear a message delivered in tones that are fraught with fear: Bed bugs are back! Theyre everywhere! What can we do?

The funny thing is, for several decades when parents would put the kids to bed, they would say things like Sleep tight, and dont let the bed bugs bite. Aside from entomologists and pest professionals, very few people knew what bed bugs were, or if they even existed. Today, we all know. These appleseed-sized, blood-sucking insects have come roaring back, and people are worried frightened, even.

Bed bugs (Cimex lectularius) largely disappeared from developed parts of the world in the 1940s, mostly because pesticides knocked them out. Since then, two things happened: Bed bugs, over time, acquired a resistance to pesticides, and international travel made it possible for bed bugs to hitchhike from parts of the world where they had not been eradicated to here in America.

Bed Bugs are excellent hitchhikers, too. Not only can they travel around the world, but theyre very good at moving from place to place from a hotel room to your bedroom, or from that used piece of furniture you picked up at a garage sale to the rest of your house. Once bed bugs get inside your home, they begin multiplying; one female bed bug will lay one to five eggs a day, or an average of 120 eggs in its life. Upon hatching, those juvenile bugs, or nymphs, will reach adulthood in three weeks, seeking out blood meals from you and your family, while youre sleeping, by zeroing in on the carbon dioxide you exhale and laying eggs, lots of them. Even without doing the math, its easy to see how this can turn into a big problem in short order.

Bed bugs? Just say, Clark, we need you!

Fortunately, theres a solution for your bed bug problems. Clark Pest Control has a highly trained force of technicians armed with the knowledge, skill, tools, and determination to restore your peace of mind around bed bugs. We begin with a meticulous inspection of your premises. We look everywhere that bed bugs might be lurking. Once we find bed bugs or evidence of their activity such as cast-off skins from molts, or blood spotting on mattresses well bring our arsenal of anti-bed bug weapons to bear on the target pest and all of its hideouts, so that you can sleep soundly again.

Youve heard that old saying, If you cant stand the heat, get out of the kitchen? Bed bugs cant stand the heat specifically once it rises above 120o F. Clark technicians will bring industrial powered heaters that will raise the temperature, room by room, enough to kill bed bugs and their eggs. Before we bring the heat, well make sure that everything that needs to be exposed to heat is opened up or positioned properly so that treatment will be most effective, turning a room upside down to ensure the heat goes where it needs to go. Our strategically placed heating units will be monitored continuously to make sure the room is hot enough to finish the job, and well have someone on-site to make sure the job is performed correctly. After we complete the service, we can provide documentation that will show exactly what actions we took.

Does Your Apartment Have Bed Bugs?

A couple of weeks ago I had dozens of bites showing up on my arms and legs. I have sensitive skin, so I switched laundry detergent thinking that I was somehow having a reaction to the soap but then I saw a tiny little bug thats where my bed bug problem all started.

When I approached my landlord about treating the apartment complex, he refused and immediately tried to hold me responsible for treating my apartment for bed bugs. I didnt think that was right. Luckily my professor referred me to the RPA and explained that the best option would be to start with a formal complaint. So, I did. (Problem is now solved!!)

I wanted to create a post to help other tenants suffering with a bed bug infested Apartment: (so heres my experience)

Do you have bed bugs?

Look for signs to determine if you have bed bugs. Everyone reacts differently to their bites. I found some research that indicated that some people have little to no reaction to bed bug bites (lucky for them).

Below is our Bed Bugs Control Frequently Asked Questions. If you do not find the question and answer you are looking for please dont hesitate to call us and we will answer all your questions on Bed Bugs Extermination.

Are bed bugs real? Yes. Bed bugs which were once eradicated in the United States have been around in other countries. They are back because they are very adept at piggybacking onto travelers and can go around the world in less than a day.

Do only dirty people get bed bugs? Bed Bugs can be found in all types of homes and hotels. Five star hotels are just as likely to get bed bugs as a one star. The cleanliness of the hotel or home has no bearing on whether or not bed bugs will infest.

How did I get them? Most people get bed bugs from travel. When staying in a hotel or home that is infested bed bugs will invade luggage or clothing to ride home with the host. Other ways that they can get in include, house guests bringing them, or bringing in used or infested furniture.

I hear about heat treatment for bed bugs do they work? They are effective in the short term at killing bed bugs, but heat does not always eliminate 100% of the pests and without a chemical treatment they can be likely to come back. We have found that chemical treatments are the most effective overall treatment for these pests in both the short and long term.

After treatment, how long until they are completely gone? Generally the problem is mostly eliminated after the first treatment. We make a mandatory follow up part of the service to go back through the most heavily infested areas and make 100% sure that the problem is eliminated.

Can I keep my mattress after the treatment for bed bugs? If a mattress is infested with Bed Bugs, we recommend that the mattress be removed and thrown away. If that is not a practical solution, then a specific Bed Bug mattress encasement should be used on both the mattress and box springs. If the encasement is not designed for Bed Bugs, they can slip through crevices or zippers with ease. We can supply these for you at an additional charge.

What can I do to keep from getting bed bugs? Inspect your hotel room before you move your stuff in. Pull back the sheets and look at the mattress for bugs, eggs, or stains from their feces that look like rust spots. Check the headboards and nightstand drawers. Never buy or pick up a used mattress, and if necessary inspect furniture or other items brought into your home before entering.

What do I need to do to prepare for a bed bug treatment? See our what to expect page for a full breakdown of what needs to be done to prepare as well as what the service will entail.

Bed Bugs Pictures

Posted on August 10, 2015 by admin Click Here For Article

Visitors from around the world have been sending us bed bugs pictures to help them identify their creepy crawler and over the last 6 years have accumulated an impressive collection we present some of those images below in a slideshow you can control.

You can study all the images you like and still may not find bed bugs, the trick is, knowing what signs to look for, such as the black dots on the mattress which could indicate bed bug fecal matter; they poop your blood which darkens when dried making it look like ink stains on the mattress.

LARGEST COLLECTION OF BED BUG PICTURES! Below is our slideshow of bed bug pictures from around the world. If you pause the show by clicking on a picture, youll be able to advance the filmstrip and select the thumbnail of the image you would like to view or you can just sit back and let it run, its up to you.

Another clue to look for is the sticky white rice looking material which are really eggs. Some of the best pictures of these bedbugs in their natural habitat are the four below which is exactly what you want to look for!

In this close up picture you can clearly see the whole lifecycle, from the eggs, to the bed bug shell casings, to the adult and shells.

What a cute picture of these two bed bugs living the life! The big one shed his shell while the other looks toward the eggs.

Another cure picture of bugs but the little little one appears to be shy and trying to hide. Notice the different sized shells, tells an entire story and helps give an idea of how long they have been hiding out there.

This image is a great example of what youll look for when trying to spot an infestation. Simply lift up the mattress out of the frame and if you see something that looks like this, then you need to act, and fast! Send us a photo if you do!

Bed bug encasements for mattresses and box springs

Posted on August 10, 2015 by admin Click Here For Article

If you have bed bugs, many pest management professionals and entomologists recommend encasing your mattresses in high-quality encasements that are designed and tested to keep bed bugs in or out. If you do not yet have bed bugs, bed bugencasements may be a good preventive measure for keeping bed bugs out of your box springs and mattress.

The use of bed bug encasements is not without controversy. We are aware of several highly respected UK bed bug experts (namely Richard Naylor of the University of Sheffield and David Cain of Bed-bugs.co.uk), who dont recommend encasing mattresses. However, at this writing (8/2011), I cant think of any North American PCOs or entomologists who generally recommend against bed bug encasements.

The design of beds may play into this: keep in mind that UK beds tend not to have US-style box springs, and that box springs are notorious for harboring bed bugs. And British-style divan beds tend to have wheels attached, which makes them impossible to encase.

The argument for encasement use:

The argument against bed bug encasements:

Click the following link to read discussions tagged as being about encasements on our forums.

My own sense gathered from the input of various experts is that the vulnerability of North American-style box springs means they should be securely encased. (As youll see below, some experts recommend this be done with mattress encasements, which may be better-designed in some cases than those marketed as box spring encasements.)

And while using a mattress encasement does not prevent you from getting bed bugs in your home, if kept intact, it will keep them on the encasement surface and prevent bed bugs from harboring on and leaving fecal stains on the mattress itself and the staining in particular is something many people would like to avoid, especially on a nice or newer mattress.

If your pest management professional does recommend encasement use for your box springs and/or mattresses, make sure you are using ones which have been independently tested to keep bed bugs in or out (more on that below), make sure they are installed correctly and carefully, and inspect them regularly and carefully for tears.

On the other hand, if your pest management professional does not agree with the use of bed bug encasements, and they seem to know what theyre doing, then I would recommend you follow their protocols.
