Contacting a good Broken Arrow exterminator is the best bet when dealing with bed bugs and trying to get them out of your home. Bed bugs are a parasitic pest that feed upon the blood of humans. They stay in our beds and couches and wait for us to fall asleep. Here they will bite us when we’re most vulnerable, stealing our sleep and our peace of mind. Keeping these insects out of your home is so important. So in this article, let us take a good hard look at bed bugs, their life cycle and what you and your Broken Arrow exterminator can do to  protect yourself and your loved ones in your home from these insects.

BED BUG DISEASES AND BROKEN ARROW, EXTERMINATOR 

Scientist have studied bed bugs profusely in an effort to make sure that they are safe when they’re around us. While most insects that feed upon the blood of humans can pass diseases to and from their host, bed bugs actually do not spread any form of disease that we know of. When they draw blood from our veins, they do it in such a way in which no blood is backwashed back into the system. In addition, we’ve never found any disease that has been traced back to the bed bug or distributed by it. 

While this can be good news for some people, it’s still true that these insects exact a huge psychological toll on us as humans. The fact that there are bugs in our beds that are biting us while we sleep and are most vulnerable can be crushing too many people. Because of this, it is just very important that you contact in Broken Arrow exterminator, if you have a problem with any kind of bed bugs or other parasites. Check out our reviews!

GETTING RID OF BED BUGS

The first step is to know the signs of a bed bug infestation. If you’re seeing black and red dots on your pillows or mattresses, then it’s time that you have a Broken Arrow exterminator take a look. The small red dots are from the blood that they dropped from feeding, and the black dots are when they poop. I think you’ll see these dots around mattress seams where they like to hide. You can even see the insects and or eggs themselves in these areas as well. Bed bugs are a brownish yellow in color and about the size and shape of an apple seed.

While you can find many over-the-counter solutions for bed bugs, these are not the ideal solution. These over-the-counter pesticides are almost always pyrethrins. This is a family of pesticides that’s quite safe and is derived from a natural pesticide found in the chrysanthemum plant. These chemicals were used extensively against the bed bugs in the 90s and bed bugs have developed an immunity to them. Because of this, over the counter solutions are pretty much useless.
