Bed bugs are insects that can be controlled by your Tulsa pest control company. These insects are nocturnal pests that crawl out at night to feed on humans. They are found almost in every part of the world where humans live. Bed bugs nest close to your sleeping area such as seams of the mattresses, and bed frame furniture. They can hide in these places for days or weeks even without feeding. Bed bugs undergo different development stages namely, the egg, 5 nymphal stages, and adult. Additionally, Bed bugs cause a lot of discomfort while you sleep and can lead to insomnia. This is why it’s important to seek the help of a Tulsa pest control company to help you eliminate these pests and keep you and your loved ones safe.
The Nymphs
The nymph stage is the longest stage in the life cycle and the development of a bed bug. This nymph stage comprises 5 other stages. After hatching from the eggs, the nymphs emerge. For it to develop into an adult, it requires molting 5 different times. The nymph feeds on its host and sucks the required amount of blood to grow to a certain size. It then molts by shedding off its exoskeleton to make way for a new and bigger one.
However, it continues this process by feeding and increasing in size until it develops to the average size of an adult and becomes fully matured. Throughout the nymph stages, they possess all the physical characteristics of an adult bed bug except for their color. This is because their color is from the blood they consume. The nymphs after hatching look transparent and do not have a reddish-brown color. The color changes as it feeds on blood. Your Tulsa pest control company can help you eliminate them at this stage before they start reproducing.
