If you’ve started getting that itchy feeling that something’s been eating you, it might be time to check for bed bugs. An adult bed bug is about 1/5 inch long and 1/8 inch wide, reddish brown to mahogany in color, with flat oval shaped-body. Bed bugs feed on the blood of humans and pets. After feeding, the bug’s body enlarges, becoming longer and much less flattened.
At The Bug Man Inc., we know the value of a good night’s sleep, which can be almost impossible to get if you have a bed bug infestation. We can help. And, contrary to what you may have heard, you don’t have to throw out your mattress.
Nearly eradicated by the 1940s, bed bugs staged one of the most successful comebacks in history in the 1990s, first gaining footholds in coastal states, and then migrating throughout the U.S.. Bed bugs are hardy creatures, able to withstand temperature extremes of near 10 degrees Fahrenheit to 105 degrees, and they can live without feeding for as long as one year.
The good news is while bed bugs may be tough and hard to kill, you can get rid of bed bugs by calling The Bug Man. We’ll send a bed bug removal specialist right away to help you enjoy a good night’s sleep.
