    How professional pest control companies get rid of bed bugs

    Bed bugs are a common problem faced by homeowners, apartment dwellers, and hotel patrons alike. These pesky pests can cause sleepless nights and anxiety as they feed on human blood while their victim’s sleep. Fortunately, pest control companies have many methods for bed bug detection and elimination that can help get rid of these unwelcome guests once and for all. Here we’ll discuss how exactly pest control companies find and kill bed bugs.

    The first step in getting rid of bed bugs is to properly identify them.

    Bed bugs are small (around the size of an apple seed) reddish-brown insects that hide during the day in cracks or crevices around beds, furniture, mattresses, carpets or baseboards. They come out at night to feed on sleeping humans through tiny bites that go unnoticed until later when rashes or itchy welts may appear on your skin where you were bitten.

    If you suspect you have a bed bug infestation in your home or business premises then calling a professional pest control company is highly recommended. Only experienced technicians will be able to accurately diagnose the issue correctly before proceeding with treatment options such as heat treatments or chemical sprays/powders/dusts which could potentially make matters worse if used incorrectly without proper knowledge about what type of insect is present inside your living space(s).

    Once identified correctly – either through visual inspections from trained exterminators using special tools such as:

    ·      magnifying glasses & flashlights

    ·      trapping devices like sticky traps

    ·      canine scent detection dogs

    ·      thermal imaging scans

    ·      gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GCMS)

    ·      DNA testing kits

    Once bed bugs are confirmed and infestation’s size has been determined, solutions can then be applied accordingly depending upon how severe the infestation has become over time due to factors like presence of food sources near areas where eggs might’ve been laid previously etc..

    One popular solution amongst pest control companies today involves applying targeted heat treatments which involve raising temperatures up high enough within certain rooms so that any hiding adult bed bugs die off quickly due to extreme conditions created, whilst also ensuring other surrounding items remain unharmed. This is achieved by controlling humidity levels carefully throughout this process via specially designed equipment made just for this purpose (i.e. fans/heaters).

    Another method includes using chemical formulations such as sprays/powders/dust applications. These act against adult life-stages of bed bugs only, but do not provide protection against future potential re-invasion since eggs are not killed by chemicals. Only appropriate temperature ranges will be effective in killing bed bug eggs. Chemical is also not highly effective for difficult infestations – especially ones rooted deep into mattress seams & fabrics where larvae tend to congregate oftentimes making chemical treatment difficult even after multiple attempts.

    Finally, there’s always physical eradication techniques available too including steam cleaning carpets & upholstery plus manually removing visible nymph casings found along edges around beds.

    Keep in mind physical removal of bed bugs should only ever be done under direct supervision from certified professionals who know exactly what signs to look for. This is because improper handling could actually spread infestation further instead of helping contain it!

    In conclusion, there are several ways pest control companies use to detect and eliminate bed bugs from private homes and businesses efficiently. However, one must always remember prevention methods must always take priority above everything else because fighting already established infestations require much more effort than preventing one from occurring, so don’t forget cover basic precautions like regularly washing linens (& curtains!) weekly warm water cycle settings + hot drying afterwards setting temperature above 50 Celsius where possible.
