Bed Bug Warning Signs Everyone Ought To Know

Waking up with bites on your body is not a clear sign of bed bugs. Now, if these bite marks run in a straight line or zig-zag pattern, it makes them more likely to be from these pests. Keep in mind with this that not everyone reacts the same to bed bug bites. Some people have no reaction at all. If you want to spot these pests inside your home, you will have to look for all of the signs they leave behind.

Common signs of bed bugs in Reno include blood stains on your bed, specs of reddish-black fecal droppings around your home, shed skin in areas these pests hide, and eggs inside cracks and crevices. You might also get lucky and spot one of these bugs directly. Identify a bed bug by its ¼” long, reddish brown, oval-shaped body. These pests grow to be five times larger after consuming a blood meal. For help identifying these or other pests inside your home, talk with our team at Celtic Pest Control. We will take a look around your living areas and let you know what we find.

The Symptoms Of A Bed Bug Infestation

There are a lot of biting bugs here in Reno. Bed bugs are not the most dangerous local species. In fact, they are one of the least harmful biting pests. Despite this, you still surely don’t want to share your bed with them. Firstly, bed bugs bite at night and can disrupt sleep. This might lead to insomnia, a sleeping condition that drastically affects general health.

Severe and prolonged bed bug infestations can also lead to anemia. This is a condition caused by a lack of healthy red blood cells that also affects general health. Although neither of these problems is life-threatening, they will impact your health and well-being. To avoid the symptoms of a bed bug problem, talk with our team about our advanced control options.

For this reason, it is best to call in a professional to handle these pests. Our team at Celtic Pest Control has incredible and simple offerings to handle bed bugs no matter where they are hiding inside your home. All you need to do is invite us over for a service visit. 

Tips To Prevent Bed Bugs From Coming Back

We can do a lot to help you avoid and deal with pests here in Reno. Unfortunately, we cannot directly prevent bed bugs from invading your home. These pests invade by hiding on items people carry. This means you and your loved ones are the only ones who can stop these pests. Here are some methods we recommend to avoid bringing home an infestation.

• Inspect items for bed bugs before bringing them into your home.

• Check for bed bugs when staying in hotel rooms.

• Store used clothing inside air-tight bags when you are away from home, and wash them on high heat when you get back to your house.
