A female bed bug can lay up to 5 eggs a day and 500 over the course of a complete lifecycle. It only takes a matter of weeks for a few bugs contained to a single bed to multiply into a full-blown infestation. Most infestations begin in a single bedroom and quickly spread outwards into surrounding furniture and other areas of the house. With bed bugs, a singular bug is already a problem and immediate action is the only way to stop it from becoming a much more difficult one.

Any metropolitan centre carries a greater risk of the harbouring and transference of insect populations. Bed bugs thrive anywhere there is high population density and a lack of understanding or concern for their existence. A large portion of individuals (one in three) dont show any signs of bed bug bites, which makes the insect's detection all the more unlikely. When infestations are allowed to develop freely, their potential transference from unit to unit or person to person increases significantly.

In the early stages of an infestation, it's highly likely that there are only a few and more commonly, a solitary adult specimen. Finding a single bug can be difficult for both residents and trained professionals alike. They are so we have invested extensive research and time into creating inspection methods that simply have not been paralleled. If you've been waking up with bites marks and are unsure what's causing them,contact us to schedule an inspection.

Throwing out any furniture (unless for cosmetic purposes) is not only unnecessary but in some cases counter-intuitive. Bed bugs do not penetrate into fabrics or burrow, they remain on the surfaces of any objects they have infested. This does not mean getting rid of a bed bug problem isnt difficult in cases where there are folds and crevasses that allow for more intricate shelters. Using a protective cover can be beneficial but unless warranted we tend to stray away from their use as it simply acts as another surface for the bugs to live on. We use the most advanced residual spray in conjunction with various other control techniques to erase any concern of concealed bugs, as their movement out of these hiding places will result in continued control on contact.

Though it is possible for bed bugs to infest numerous materials and objects within your home,it is highly unlikely that an infestation has initially taken place outside direct sleeping or living quarters. Beds, couches and other furniture are the initial points of contact for any bed bug population as they are the most practical "homes"for their continued survival. Other furniture and objects tend to be infested only after the population on the the beds and other furniture has crossed a critical threshold. Our treatment will systematically exterminate, all bugs and eggs, regardless of where they might located in your home.
