Due to their small size, bed bugs are masters of finding unexpected places to hide in. Contrary to popular belief, they are not only found in beds or bed clothes, but a multitude of areas in homes and businesses. In this blog, Bed Bug Heaters provides an overview of common hiding spots perfect for these pests.

Where Bed Bugs Hide
Bed bugs do not limit themselves to hiding only in your sheets and under your mattress. They seek environments that are hidden but that are also close to humans. They may conceal themselves in upholstery, behind electrical switch plates, deep in the seats of public transportation, and in a multitude of other dark areas that are close to food sources.

Bed Bugs Can Be Found In Surprising Places
While it might seem pretty obvious that bed bugs might be found in hotels or motels, they are also found in schools, daycares, nursing homes, hospitals and college dorms. It is even possible to find bed bugs in clothing stores. It is important to remain diligent and keep on the lookout for bed bugs.

If your home has been subject to a bed bug infestation, cleaning the house of pests is a top priority. However, if you are on a tight budget, that can be a little bit tougher. Finding an affordable bed bug treatment for your home will require some effort and legwork on your part. Proper research can save you a lot of money, so you can find an affordable bed bug treatment that is also effective. In today’s blog post, Bed Bug Heaters will give you some tips for finding the right affordable bed bug treatment. 

Try Do-It-Yourself Remedies
If you are a budget and cannot or would rather not go with professional pest control for your bed bug problem, you can start with do-it-yourself remedies. These are very cheap and, in some cases, free. You can start by washing and drying all of your sheets, pillowcases, and bedding from every bedroom in the home. Tidy and vacuum all affected areas. You can also begin inspecting your home yourself, looking for dead bed bugs in hard-to-reach areas and in the woodwork. 

Another option is to go with a chemical solution, but you need to make sure that it is both safe and effective for your home.

Weigh Your Professional Options
If DIY solutions aren’t an option, you can then begin to weigh your professional choices. While they won’t be as cheap, you can still find an affordable bed bug treatment from an exterminator or heater rental service. With an exterminator, you’ll have to do the right research and get multiple quotes to see which services you can afford. A bed bug heater is a great and affordable bed bug treatment because it will likely be cheaper and more convenient than an exterminator, without exposing your home to chemicals. 

Go With A Heat Treatment
At the end of the day, there are many affordable bed bug treatments, but not all of them are effective. A heat treatment is the easiest, safest, and often the most affordable bed bug treatment. At Bed Bug Heaters, you can select from a wide variety of units that will get rid of your bed bug problem in no time.

Typically, a bed bug heater rental can run anywhere from $200 to $500, depending on those variables.

Bed bug removal is the hot-button topic when it comes to pest extermination, but nobody talks about what to do after your bed bug exterminator has finished the treatment. Like with any pest problem, something drew the bed bugs to your home, and there is the possibility that they will come back. As such, it is just as important to prevent bed bugs from returning as it is to eliminate them in the first place.

In today’s post, the bed bug exterminators at Bed Bug Heaters will give some tips for how to keep your home bed bug free after your initial treatment.
 
Keep A Close Eye On Pets
If you have a pet, especially a dog or a cat that stays outside most of the day, there is a good chance that they brought in your bed bug infestation. Once you get rid of your bed bug infestation thanks to a bed bug exterminator, it’s important to bathe your dog and ensure that they are also clean. As time passes, you should continue to regularly clean your dog and make sure that they aren’t bringing in bed bugs. 

Be Careful When Traveling
If you don’t have pets, but you travel a lot for work or leisure, that also might have been what brought bed bugs into your home. When you sleep in hotels regularly, there is no guarantee that you won’t be exposed to bed bugs, which means that you can just as easily bring them home with you. When you get home from a trip, immediately wash all of your dirty clothes instead of letting them sit in the dirty laundry bin. This will ensure that any bed bugs you brought home with you are killed before they spread through your house. 

Keep Your Sheets And Bedding Clean 
Lastly, when you finally get rid of bed bugs, it can be easy to get lazy and forget to clean your sheets and bedding. Dirty sheets and bedding is often a safe haven for bed bugs, especially if you or your pet is what is bringing them in. The best preventative measure for keeping your home bed bug free is to clean your sheets, pillowcases and bedding regularly. It’s also vital to heat dry your bedding, rather than hang dry them.

Bed bugs are among the most annoying and stressful pests to deal with. Not only are you dealing with an infestation of bugs, but they are in your bed causing itchy bumps and bites. Once you recognize the need for bed bug removal, you will want to go through the proper steps to get rid of the bed bugs once and for all. Today, Bed Bug Heaters will look at the bed bug removal process and show you what you should be prepared for.

1. Do-It-Yourself Remedies
The first step in the process should be do-it-yourself remedies that can solve your bed bug problem. While a bed bug exterminator is often necessary, you don’t want to spend money on professional help if it isn't needed. To begin, wash and dry all sheets, pillowcases and bedding in the home. Make sure to use heat drying, as heat will help to kill any remaining bed bugs. Carefully tidy and vacuum all affected areas of the home.

You can also use store-bought chemical remedies to get rid of bed bugs. However, you should make sure that all chemical treatments are safe for your home. If these steps do not solve the problem, you will need to look for more serious solutions.

2. Contact A Bed Bug Removal Specialist
If DIY options aren’t working, the next step in the bed bug removal process is to reach out to a bed bug exterminator. Once you get in touch with a bed bug removal specialist, they can give you the best options for your specific situation. At Bed Bug Heaters, we will provide you with a free full-service estimate of your bed bug removal options and let you know what to expect. 

It is key to have an exterminator on site to examine the problem, as they will be able to identify the full extent of the pest problem in your home and give you detailed advice.

3. Execute Your Bed Bug Treatment
Once you have talked to a professional, it is time to take action on a bed bug removal treatment. Whether that is a heat treatment or a chemical treatment, it is essential to look at all of your options and determine which one is best for you based on your specific situation. At Bed Bug Heaters, we can deliver advanced heat treatment solutions that will eliminate all bed bugs without exposing your home to chemicals.

When it comes to bed bugs, the question is typically less about whether or not you need treatment and more about what kind of treatment you need. While many people will delay the inevitable, it is better for your home to take care of the problem before you have a full-scale infestation on your hands.

One of the best ways to get rid of an infestation without chemicals is through a bed bug heater rental. In today’s blog post, Bed Bug Heaters will take a look at your options for bed bug heater rental.
 
Do I Need A Bed Bug Heater Rental?

Before looking at a bed bug heater rental, there are some other heat treatment options that you can try first. The most straightforward method is to use your washer and dryer. Washing your sheets and bedding is an easy first step when it comes to a bed bug infestation. A dryer is a high-heat option for your clothes and linens that you can try before investing in a bed bug heater rental.

You can even look to other options like putting linens and clothing into black trash bags and letting them sit in the sun or a hot car.
 
25,000 BTU Heater

If you do wind up needing a bed bug heater, there are several options to choose from at Bed Bug Heaters. First, there is the 25,000 BTU heater, which can heat your home all the way up to 125 degrees and kill all the bed bugs in a room within an hour. You will need 240 volts of power to treat up to two rooms per day with this bed bug heater rental.

52,000 BTU Heater

If you are looking for a bed bug heater rental that can treat larger rooms or larger homes, the 52,000 BTU heater is the solution to your problem. This heater can heat a room up to 800 square feet in size, making it the perfect option for bigger homes with bigger rooms. These heaters are rented out in 24-hour increments at $499.00 for the first day and $75 for each additional day.

There are few things worse than having to go into your wallet and spend money to have an exterminator come in and get rid of pests. Most people will try to get rid of their infestation with do-it-yourself methods before hiring an exterminator, even if they really need bed bug treatment.

There are many DIY treatments for your bed bug problem that are as easy as washing your sheets and bedding. However, if bed bugs are becoming a problem, it’s better to find a bed bug treatment sooner rather than later. In today’s post, Bed Bug Heaters will look at why that is true.
 
Start By Cleaning and Inspecting Your Home

Before you go hiring an exterminator or looking for a bed bug treatment, you should always start with cleaning and inspecting your home. In many cases, simply cleaning and drying the sheets, blankets, and bedding in your home can get rid of your problem. However, you will also need to inspect your home for bed bugs. While they might bite in the bed, they typically don’t stay there. 

Examine the woodwork in your home, specifically around your bed, closets, and dressers. This area is the best place to start because it will quickly let you know if you need to hire an exterminator. 

Getting Ahead Of The Problem

Once you clean all of your sheets and bedding, it shouldn’t take long for bed bugs to reemerge if that didn’t do the trick. If the problem is severe enough, you will want to get in touch with a bed bug exterminator first, rather than looking at other options. If you weren’t able to get rid of the bed bugs through do-it-yourself strategies, should start looking for a bed bug treatment sooner rather than later.

In the meantime, you can begin to clear away clutter and dirty laundry where bed bugs might take refuge. You can also use steam cleaning as you wait to find the right bed bug treatment.
 
Eliminating The Problem

If you sense that the problem goes beyond the reach of DIY treatment options, you won’t want to delay the treatment process. Get in touch with a bed bug exterminator immediately so that you can stop the infestation in its tracks and end the problem for good.

Pest infestations are frustrating enough, but nothing is worse than a bed bug infestation. Bed bugs not only invade your home, but they bite and run, making it very difficult to pin down the problem. Eventually, a bed bug exterminator will become a necessity. In today’s blog post, Bed Bug Heaters will take a look at four clear signs that you need a bed bug exterminator.
 
1. You See Repeated Bites Across Your Home

Waking up with a bug bite isn’t the most uncommon thing in the world. However, when you start repeatedly waking up with bug bites, you might have a problem. When you start to see repeated bites, you should clean your sheets and bedding, and in many cases that will solve the problem. However, if you and your family are experiencing bites in multiple rooms throughout your home, you likely have an infestation.
 
2. You Begin Seeing Property Damage

While not as common for bed bugs as termites or vermin, property damage can still be a sign of infestation. Bed bugs, while they might shack up in your sheets during the night, will often retreat to woodwork and floorboards, making nests in the process. If you start to see woodwork damage, there is a decent chance that you have some form of infestation, and it might be bed bugs.

3. You Begin Seeing Rust-Colored Dots Around Your Home

Rust-colored dots are the easiest way to recognize a bed bug infestation. When they die or shed, a bed bug will often leave a rust-colored dot. These marks will not only let you know that there are bed bugs in your home, but also that they are completing a full life cycle and you will need a bed bug exterminator. 

4. You Are Bitten, Even After Washing Sheets And Bedding

Even when it’s clearly time to call in the pros, many people don’t want to admit they have a problem that requires a bed bug exterminator. There are some DIY steps you can take first, like washing your sheets and vacuuming the carpet. However, if you thoroughly clean your home but still have a bed bug problem, you need to get in contact with a bed bug exterminator immediately.

For many homeowners or future homeowners, your dream house might not be new and shiny. In fact, for a lot of people, their dream house is an older home. Whether the appeal is the classic style or the sentimental value, an older house might be your first choice for a perfect home. However, with an older home comes older woodwork, and that can often mean pests. 

Today, we want to take a look at bed bug removal for older homes. In this blog post, Bed Bug Heaters will give some bed bug removal tips for owners of older homes.

Have The Home Inspected Before You Buy

An easy way to ensure that you won’t have a bed bug problem in a new home is to have it inspected before buying. We most often see bed bugs in sheets and blankets, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t still in the house once the previous owner is all packed up and moved out.

Having your potential real estate purchase inspected is a good practice to undergo for all homes, not just old ones. If you are buying a home, you will want to have it checked for pests, including bed bugs, termites and vermin.
 
Know What Bed Bug Removal Treatments Your Home Can Handle

Another thing to consider if you already own the home and have a bed bug problem is what your home can handle. When it comes to bed bug removal, there aren’t many treatment options, but the wrong approach could harm an older house. For instance, chemical treatments could negatively impact your home more than a bed bug heater would. Know what your home can handle before seeking out a bed bug removal treatment. 

Don’t Bring Any Bed Bugs With You

Lastly, the best bed bug removal option for your older home is to prevent them from ever getting in. Before you move in, make sure to wash all of your sheets, blankets, and linens. If you have a history with bed bugs, this will be especially important. You will also want to clean all clothing before you bring it to the new home unless you plan on leaving some of it in a storage unit.

Like most animals and bugs, especially the pesky, frustrating ones, bed bugs come from a family of parasites that all look very similar. All of these species are difficult to tell apart. Relatives of bed bugs are often mistakenly identified. It seems many of us are eager to identify other types of bugs as those miniature antagonists of our nightmares. 

The Genus
The genus of these little bloodsuckers is known as Cimex. Though all of these different species love to feast on blood, not all of them consider humans the perfect lunch. This insect genus have similar looking bugs that find their favorite buffets on not only humans but swallows, bats, and chickens. We aren’t the only ones who attract these nasty critters, it seems. Many of these bugs look identical to the naked eye, especially if you are no expert.

Bat Bugs
These nasty creatures look very similar to bed bugs. The human parasite is typically over .25 inches, has a red-brown body, and has long hair. The bat-blood lover rarely gets to even .25 inches, has a dark-brown body, and has shorter hair. The hair on both bugs is so fine that the naked eye cannot tell the difference. 

Though they prefer bat’s blood, bat bugs have been found in human beds. Because humans aren’t their preferred food source, however, they are more easily dealt with than their frustrating Cimex cousins. 

Swallow Bugs
Swallow bugs look noticeably different only when put underneath a microscope. They have long fine hair down the entire length of their body. They are found drinking from the skin of humans even less often than their bat bug cousins, but they have been known to take a sip when times get difficult. 

Tropical Bed Bugs
Though actually a slightly different species from the common bed bug, tropical bed bugs also love to enjoy the taste of human. We are their preferred meal, and you might encounter one of these bugs if you live in or visit Florida. The further south you travel, the more prevalent this type of parasite becomes. These two bugs look almost identical, with the tropical bug’s body shaped a little less u-like than the other’s. Otherwise, they could pass for twins. 

Take Care of Your Infestation
At Bed Bug Heaters, we take care of your infestations for you. No matter how big or how small, we get the job done. We use all the latest and most thorough techniques to make sure you get back to sleeping soundly. These nasty parasites can cause serious anxiety and restless sleep.
