That’s why it’s important to eradicate an infestation as soon as it’s detected.

What Are Bed Bugs?

Bed bugs are small, wingless parasitic insects that feed exclusively on the blood of warm-blooded animals. And unfortunately for us, humans are their favorite snack. Bed bugs can be mahogany or red-brown in color, although nymphs are nearly colorless. They’re flat and ovular when unfed and look swollen and elongated after a meal. Bed bugs also have six legs and antennae, and can be found virtually anywhere in the U.S.

These blood-sucking pests can live for months without feeding, and they love to travel. To wit, bed bugs are often brought home after visiting a hotel, college dorm, retail shop, cruise ship, hospital, nursing home, taxi, bus, train, or airplane. They can even be picked up in otherwise vacant buildings. This is why it’s important to hire an experienced professional ASAP if you believe bed bugs have invaded your property.

What Are Three Signs of A Bed Bug Infestation?

There are several signs you can look out for that can help you determine whether or not you have a bed bug infestation in your home. These include bed bug bites, spotting them, or noticing brown or reddish spots. We discuss each of these three bed bug signs in more detail below. If you notice any of these signs, we highly suggest that you call our bed bug exterminator professionals here at Horizon Pest Control, to get the situation inspected and taken care of for you in no time.

1. Bed Bug Bites

Bites are the most commonly reported sign of a bed bug infestation. Bed bug bites often appear in zigzag lines or straight rows on exposed skin, leaving behind red, itchy welts. These creatures are nocturnal, so you’ll most likely notice the bites in the morning after a night’s rest. Anytime you wake up with red welts, you’ll want to check for bed bugs immediately.

2. You Spot Them

Bed bug eggs, nymphs, and adults are all visible to the human eye. Fully-grown, bed bugs are about the size of a lentil and can double in size after feeding. These pests are often found in couches and bed frames, but they might also show up in stuffed animals, purses, suitcases, shoes, curtains, carpeting, and even items like bedside lamps. If their food source is nearby, they’re likely hiding within close proximity.

3. Brown or Reddish Spots

Additionally, bed bugs will leave behind small brownish or reddish dots on bed linens and mattresses. These spots are actually tiny blood stains. You might also notice a musty odor like that of a wet towel. This strong scent is caused by bed bug pheromones.

What Causes Bed Bugs in NJ?

Bed bugs are small, flat parasites that feed on the blood of humans and animals while they sleep. They can be very difficult to detect, meaning they can quickly multiply and take up residence in a home or other living space if not controlled. But where do bed bugs come from? The most common way bed bugs get into your house is through secondhand furniture, bedding, luggage, and clothing brought from other places.

That is why bed bug control service from an experienced bed bug exterminator is essential for homeowners to effectively keep bed bugs away. A reliable bed bug removal specialist has knowledge and training in detecting where bed bugs are hiding and which treatments are best for eliminating them.
