Bed Bug Control in Columbia, MD

Bed bugs are tiny insects that can hide easily in mattress crevices and bedding, coming out at night to feed on your skin. The bites can cause everything from inflammation and itchiness to allergic reactions, not to mention a poor night of sleep. Because they are so small, they can be difficult to find and eliminate completely, especially if the infestation is not discovered quickly.

Our bed bug control services are available throughout Columbia and the surrounding areas. For over 30 years, we have been offering quality pest control services, providing effective elimination of rodents, ants, bees, spiders, and more.

How to Determine If You Have a Bed Bug Problem

Bed bugs can be difficult to spot, especially if the infestation is relatively young. Most commonly, they will appear as small, dark red, pepper-like particles in the crevices and seams of mattresses or bedding. More likely, you will notice you have a bed bug problem when you start receiving bites while you are sleeping. They often appear close together in a row, and they can resemble mosquito bites.

What Causes Bed Bug Problems?

Bed bugs can travel from one place to another in luggage, clothes, shoes, bedding, or just about anywhere. They can be found even in the cleanest motel rooms, and they can quickly travel up to 20 feet, making it easy for them to spread under the cover of darkness. Bed bugs are commonly found in:

• Hotels
• Dorms
• Hospitals
• Airplanes
• Trains
• Buses
• Furniture stores
• Theaters
• Dressing rooms
• And more…

It only takes a few to start an infestation, even in a home that is cleaned fastidiously and often.

How to Prevent Bed Bug Problems

Because of their size, a bed bug problem can be hard to prevent. Here are a few tips that can reduce your chances of an infestation or slow an existing one:

• Install bed bug resistant mattress and furniture covers
• Remove unnecessary clutter from bedrooms and closets
• Wash linens frequently at high temperatures
• Vacuum frequently, especially near bedding and furniture
• If you notice bed bugs, do not change rooms, because it may help them spread

If an infestation does occur, contact a professional quickly to minimize its effects.
