BED BUG CONTROL
Signs of a Bed Bug Infestation
You might already know you have a bed bug infestation, but here are a few of the most common signs bed bug exterminators look for.
Bite Marks
Although bite marks from bed bugs aren’t often seen, some people experience hives or blistering at the bite site.
Fecal Spots
Fecal spots are seen as small, dark, sand-like droppings that occur in patches around and especially beneath nests.
Blood Smears
You may see blood smears on sheets and pillowcases.
Nasty Odor
Bed bugs can be detected by their characteristic smell of rotting raspberries.
What You Need to Know About Bed Bugs
- Bed bugs are most active between 5 and 6 a.m.
- Bed bugs can also quickly spread to different rooms and even vehicles as they hitch a ride on a human host, clothing, or bedding.
- Adult bed bugs are light brown to reddish-brown, flattened, oval-shaped and have no hind wings.
- Bed bugs have segmented abdomens with microscopic hairs that give them a banded appearance.
- Adults grow to 4–5 mm in length (just over 3/16 inch) and 1.5–3 mm wide.
- Newly hatched nymphs are translucent, lighter in color and become browner as they molt and reach maturity.
- A bed bug of any age that has just consumed a blood meal will appear to have a bright red translucent abdomen; this color will fade to brown over the next several hours and within two days will become opaque and black as the insect digests its meal.
- Bed bugs may be mistaken for other insects, such as booklice, small cockroaches, or carpet beetles, however when warm and active, their movements are more ant-like, and they emit a characteristically disagreeable odor when crushed.

One of the more effective and efficient treatments for a bed bug infestation is the dual pronged approach that FUMIGLO Pest Control uses. First, spray safe and effective insecticide in typical bed bug traffic areas, then apply insecticide dust to removed outlets and other hiding spots for the bugs. This process is repeated one week later.
