Did You Know?
Bed bugs can survive more than a year without feeding under certain conditions. This ability allows them to linger unnoticed in furniture, walls, and belongings long after you think they are gone, making thorough treatment and follow-up essential.
Why Bed Bugs Are a Problem Here
Bed bugs are expert hitchhikers. They can be brought into your home on luggage, clothing, furniture, or other items. Once inside, they hide in mattresses, bed frames, headboards, and even behind outlet covers. Their ability to reproduce quickly means a small introduction can turn into a large infestation in a matter of weeks.
