BED BUGS CAN LIVE UP TO A YEAR WITHOUT FEEDING
Where Bed Bugs Hide
Bed Bugs can live a year without feeeding!
We ultimately hate bed bugs just as much (if not more!) as you do. Our only priority is to get rid of your bed bugs so you can have rest assured you’ll have a good night’s sleep.
If you aren’t sure if you have an issue with Bed Bugs, simply read over
the following questions:
If you answer yes to any of these, you could have a bed bug problem.
- Do you see bed bugs here and there either through night or during the day?
- Do you get one or more red, sometimes itchy, bites?
- Have you found dark or bloody stains on your mattress or your linen?
- Did you find a nest or a couple bed bug nests either on your furniture or on your mattress?
- Do you live in an urban area and you’ve heard your neighbors have bed bugs or if there are reports of bed bugs in your neighborhood?
If you answered YES to any of these then we would urge you to call us so we can have a telephone interview to determine if your Orlando home or Orlando business may need treatment.

BUT HOW AND WHERE DO BED BUGS HIDE AND HOW DO THEY
EVEN COME TO YOUR HOME?
There’s a myth circulating in Florida. And it’s not true at all! The myth that hurts and helps spread bed bugs is only the dirty or “poor” homes get them. The truth couldn’t be further from reality.
Bed bugs don’t discriminate and are often found in the cleanest of homes. We find them in the most expensive Windermere Florida homes as well as in the homeless shelters near downtown Orlando. It’s so easy to spread bed bugs to ALL and any environments including the cleanest of homes in the Orlando region.
Bed bugs are masters of hitching a ride from one person or one place to another. Bed bugs have developed ways to quickly spread from one bedroom to another.
From an infested home a bed bug will climb on that unfortunate person’s clothes and climb down to the seat on a bus or a chair at the movies.
Since many of us are now ride sharing with Uber and other public transportation in and around Orlando, going to the movies, kids sharing seats on the bus, buying used furniture, sleeping over in motels or hotels all of this makes it very easy for bed bugs to be introduced to a your home.
Sometimes one of your neighbors will get them and a bed bug will find its way to your home. Bed bugs are incredible at spreading from one home to another.
Our bed bug extermination services are eco-friendly and pet and family safe.
THINK ABOUT ALL THE PLACES A BED BUG
CAN HIDE – SCARY!
Bed bugs are tiny! Only about the thickness of a quarter or 0.1 to 0.2 inches. We got reports of customers finding them behind picture frames on the walls!
Potentially infested areas include:
- pillows and mattresses
- box springs, bed frames, head boards, bed rails
- closets, carpeting, furniture, purses, briefcases, luggage
- and all cracks and crevices where a bed bug may hide (electrical outlets, light switches etc)
To top it all off a bed bug can live up to a YEAR without feeding. This means you might have them and not even know it.
Did you also know that one out of 3 people don’t have a reaction to bed bug bites at all? A bite might therefore be almost completely invisible ranging to small red bumps or big swollen welts.
WARNING: WHY SHOULDN’T YOU USE
A STORE BOUGHT PESTICIDE?
Many of these pesticides you can find in stores are general insecticides, meaning they are not specifically for bed bugs, and as such can be harmful to non-target species including household pets.
Many of these pesticides contain Pyrethroids and Pyrethrins. Not only are certain species of bed bug immune to these chemicals, they’re also potentially dangerous to both humans and domestic pets.
