Bed Bugs: Are They In Your Home?

Bed bugs: critters that can make your skin crawl upon hearing the words. Unfortunately what most people do not realize is how common they can be or the damage they can do to your skin and health.

Bed Bug Life Cycle

Bed bugs can live anywhere from hotels and homes, to office buildings, buses, movie theatres, and retail stores. There are no limits for these bugs, as long as humans are there – they can be too. They will live for several months without feeding, lingering in furniture, suitcases, purses, or boxes of clothes until they find their next host. They can survive from nearly freezing temperatures up to 50º C (122º F), making them extremely versatile and resistant to “DIY” measures. Bed bugs also fairly smart creatures, hiding during daylight hours in areas such as mattress edges, electrical face-plates, closet corners, under furniture, laundry piles, or even picture frames. During the night they are drawn out from their hiding spots, attracted to the carbon dioxide we exhale. Feasting solely on blood, we are their buffets without knowing as their meals are quick and painless. However this can also lead to damage to our skin and health, leaving welts and rashes or passing on pathogens from previous hosts.

Your best bet to fight against these nasty critters is hiring professionals! Let Stutters’ expert team assess your situation and take care of all the important details so you can have peace of mind.
