Bed bugs are approximately 5-6 mm in length before a blood meal, extending about 7mm when fully engorged with blood, are oval and flattened from back to underside with well-developed legs and wings absent. They are also red to brown in colour.
Common signs of bed bugs being present are finding small blood spots on bed sheets, faecal pellets, and distinctive smell and of course live insects.
The harm of bed bugs is customers can be bitten. Bed bugs move around easily and if not treated in a professional way quickly, can quickly reach an epidemic level. Specialist solutions only available to professional pest control companies offer the most reliable way to get rid of bed bugs.
Bed bugs feed on human blood.
It is not recommended for you to try removing bed bugs on your own and should seek professional help.
