Finding bed bugs on your property is one of the most unsettling experiences as a homeowner. It’s no wonder that they are one of the most dreaded pests—they are tiny and gross, they multiply quickly, and they leave us with itchy, bumpy bite marks as we sleep. Bed bugs are infamous for their ability to hide out of sight until their population grows innumerably. What’s worse, everyone is liable for bed bug problems, no matter how clean your home is—this is why you should always know who to call for bed bug removal.
At D’s Pest Control, we guarantee that our treatment will completely wipe out your bed bug infestation. Our bed bug exterminators will also teach you how to avoid infestations going forward. We dedicate ourselves to a holistic approach to help our customers live pest-free lives with long-lasting solutions.
Do You Have a Bed Bug Infestation?
Bed bug infestations often go unnoticed until the infestation gets out of hand. So, how can you tell if you have a bed bug infestation? The number one sign of bed bugs is waking up with small, red, itchy bites on skin that you leave exposed at night. These bites are often grouped together, so they can be mistaken for a rash. If you suspect that you have bed bugs in your home, look around your mattress, baseboards, carpets, and electrical outlets for eggs, shed skin, and active bed bugs. You might also find dark brown spots of blood stains or bed bug feces.
The Importance of Professional Bed Bug Control
DIY bed bug removal strategies can work to eliminate portions of your bed bug infestation, but taking out an entire population of them requires more technical treatment plans. Because bed bugs are nocturnal and remain hidden away for most of the day, it can be hard to tell what corners of your home the infestation extends to. Mattresses, upholstered furniture, rugs and carpets, baseboards and siding, and even power outlets can host bed bugs. Hiring a professional bed bug exterminator is the only way to be confident that all of the bed bugs in your home have been addressed.

Why Use a Bed Bug Exterminator?
Getting help from a bed bug exterminator is the difference between false hope and total control. There are a handful of DIY bed bug pest control methods that are purported to work to get rid of bed bugs for good, but these strategies fail to address the entire home as a site of infestation. With professional bed bug treatments, entire populations of bed bugs can be eliminated using entirely safe and non-toxic procedures. It is always the safe option for your family, your home, and your belongings to enlist the help of a professional bed bug control company.
