Nocturnal Bloodsuckers

Bedbug Control

Bed bugs are insects from the genus Cimex that feed on human blood, usually at night. Their bites can result in a number of health impacts including skin rashes, psychological effects, and allergic symptoms. Bed bug bites may lead to skin changes ranging from small areas of redness to prominent blisters. Bedbug control is crucial if you want to fall asleep in your bed without having to worry about what’s crawling within your mattress! The best nights sleep comes on a mattress inspected by ACME Pest Control!

About bedbugs

These nocturnal critters feed on blood and will use you and your family as a food source. Although bed bugs do not transmit diseases, their bites can turn into itchy and painful welts. If the pests continue to bite you over a period of time, you’ll probably begin to notice blood stains on your sheets. Bed bugs will also leave behind old skins and fecal matter throughout your home. You may even detect an unpleasant smell if you have a large bed bug population in your home.

Bedbugs FAQs

How do I identify a bedbug?
Bed bugs are reddish-brown with small heads and oval-shaped bodies. The largest ones can be as big as a quarter, while the smallest ones can be smaller than a sunflower seed. Bed bugs can often be confused with fleas, so it’s important to compare pictures of both.
What threats do bedbugs pose?
Although bed bugs do not transmit diseases, their bites can become red itchy welts. Bed bugs are primarily nocturnal creatures and can hide in cracks, crevices, and folded areas of beds, bedding, and adjacent furniture. They can be found in nearly anywhere inside a home, car, bus, or other shelters.
Can I get rid of bedbugs myself?
It is not recommended to try to get rid of bed bugs on your own by creating a homemade chemical concoction. This can be dangerous to your family and pets. It is also not recommended to throw away your furniture or move infested items from room to room. The best option is to call a professional bed bug exterminator, such as ACME Pest Control, who uses non-toxic heat treatments to kill bed bugs.

Heat treatment

In place of chemical products that can be harmful to both humans and our pets, ACME Pest Control uses a heat treatment method to rid your home of bedbugs. A distinct advantage of heat is that, unlike chemical treatments, heat can penetrate cracks and crevices and inaccessible areas where bed bugs reside. Not only does our method exterminate all bedbugs on your property, it is also a safe alternative that will not harm any other person or animal.
