There is nothing
more annoying than waking up to bites all over your body and finding out that
you need to call in a bedbug pest management service right away. While you're scratching
and reaching for the phone, you're wondering how you could have possibly got
these bedbugs in the first place.
Bedbugs are wanderers and can travel into
your home in many ways. If you've been traveling recently there's a good chance
that you could have brought them home in your suitcase. If you live in an
apartment, condo or townhouse they may have crept through small openings in the
walls to invade your private space. Bedbugs are notoriously sneaky critters and
will stop at nothing to get where they want and hide the rest of the time.
Calling in the professionals
Most pest management companies have
emergency services available just for this type of situation. Many people that
find a pest problem want to get rid of it immediately and don't want to wait
days for an appointment to be scheduled. When you call up the company you can
let them know that you need the problem resolved right away and they'll be able
to tell by your frantic tone of voice that you are serious about it.
When the pest control crew is dispatched
they will usually arrive at your home with a sniffer dog. These dogs have been
trained to sniff out bedbugs where the human eye can't see them. Bugs like
these enjoy hiding in tiny cracks in walls, beds, baseboards and you name it. Anywhere
actually in the home is fair game for these bugs that wait until it's dark to
start their mad scramble for food.
These dogs are a blessing in disguise. In
recent years they have been able to help with the bedbug issue so that it can
get eradicated often in only one visit. It wasn't too long ago that bedbug
companies would have to come a few times into the home to make sure that all
the bugs were gone. The employees simply couldn't track them all down using the
naked eye only.
Nowadays most companies use a heating
process to get rid of these bugs so that you don't have to worry about chemical
overload in your bedroom. High heat can kill the bedbugs and their eggs so that
you don't have to worry about sleeping in a room full of toxins and you can be
pretty sure that once these professionals leave your home you won't be seeing
any more bedbugs again soon.
