What Do Bed Bugs Look Like?

Bed bugs are small, flat, reddish-brown insects that are about the size of an apple seed. They have six legs and are oval-shaped with a segmented body. Their bodies can swell in size after feeding. Adult bed bugs are about 5-7 mm in length, while younger ones (nymphs) can be as small as 1.5 mm.

How Do Bed Bugs Spread?

Bed bugs are excellent hitchhikers and can easily spread from place to place through personal belongings, such as luggage, furniture, clothing, and bedding. They can also spread through cracks and crevices in walls or floors, making it easy for them to infest multiple rooms or even entire buildings.

How Can I Tell if I Have a Bed Bug Infestation?

There are several signs that you may have a bed bug infestation, including:

A musty odor in the affected area
Small blood stains on your sheets or mattress
Itchy red bites on your skin, often in a linear pattern
Dark spots (fecal matter) on sheets, mattresses, or walls

How Did I Get Bed Bugs When I Haven’t Traveled?

Contrary to popular belief, bed bugs aren’t just found in dirty or unsanitary environments. These pests can be found in the cleanest homes and hotels as long as they have a source of food (blood). Bed bugs can also enter your home through used furniture, clothing, or pets in infested areas.

Dangers of Untreated Bed Bugs

Untreated bed bugs can lead to a variety of hazards. Common dangers of ignoring a bed bug infestation include:

Health risks: Untreated bed bugs can lead to continuous itching and discomfort, which can lead to secondary skin infections due to scratching. Some people may also experience allergic reactions to bed bug bites.
Sleep disruption: The presence of bed bugs often leads to anxiety and stress, causing significant disruptions in sleep patterns.
Infestation growth: Without treatment, a small bed bug infestation can quickly grow into a large one, making it more difficult and costly to eradicate due to rapid reproduction.
Emotional distress: The stigma and anxiety associated with bed bugs can cause significant emotional distress, affecting your well-being and quality of life.

How Long Does It Take to Treat Bed Bugs?

The time it takes to treat bed bugs varies depending on the size of the infestation and the treatment method used. Generally, professional bed bug treatment can take anywhere from a few hours to several days to fully eradicate bed bugs. At Critter One, we offer free quotes to give you a more accurate idea of the estimated timeframe.
