Problems with bed bugs aren’t confined only to beds. They can appear near beds, but they also can invade furniture, carpeting, and luggage, making it difficult to find them to do bed bug treatment effectively.
At Absolute Pest Control, we have nearly four decades of experience helping people in the Albany area eliminate all kinds of pests, including bed bugs. Our technicians pride themselves on the professional level of service they deliver for our customers. You can count on us for both residential and commercial services.
Examining Your Home: Where To Look For Bed Bugs
Learning how to check for bed bugs is important in trying to catch the infestation as early as possible. If you wait until the signs of these pests are extremely obvious, you may have a huge population of these insects already inside your Albany home, making it very difficult to eliminate them.
Places where these insects may hide include:
-
Seams of mattress
-
Seams of box spring
-
Crevices on bed frame
-
Behind outlet covers
-
Deep carpeting
-
Folds in curtains
-
Seams of chairs
-
Seams of couches
Understand that in the early days of a bed bug infestation, you may not see the actual insects. They are good at hiding. If you even suspect that you have bed bugs, reach out to our team at Absolute Pest Control for an inspection, so we can start working on the problem as early as possible.
Bites And Rashes: Symptoms Of A Bed Bug Invasion
Some early signs of bed bugs include signs of tiny bites on your skin that are itchy and red. You also may have some blood spots on your bedding.
If you have an allergic reaction to the bed bug bites, you may notice swelling in the area. You may have several bites close to each other on your skin. They may appear in a line on the skin.
When these tiny insects bite you, you rarely feel it. Don’t expect that you will wake up because you feel a bite. You just see the bites the next morning.
