Bed bugs are pests that infest our sleeping areas, but Broken Arrow Exterminator can help you eradicate them. These pests can make you feel distressed although they do not transmit any diseases, their bite can cause significant unease. If bitten you can feel itching and for some individuals, it can cause allergic reactions. Symptoms of itchiness may take a few minutes or days before being experienced. They are parasites and crawl out at night to suck on the blood of their victims. When you know that you have bed bugs under your mattress you may feel that they might bite you and this can cause significant distress. Bed bugs have a rapid reproduction rate and the infestation can grow fast as they can hitchhike from one place to another. If you see any sign of bed bug infestation you should call professionals like Tulsa exterminator.
Bed Bug Nymphs
The initial stage of the bed bug life cycle involves the hatching of eggs into bed bug nymphs. They hatch and go through five stages of development before becoming adults. Nymphs are smaller in size than adults. They are approximately 1.5 mm in size. Their bodies are pale, making them difficult to spot. Each nymph needs blood meals to grow and transition to the next stage. They rely mostly on human blood, which they consume when we are most asleep and unaware of their activities. They can bite many times during a single feeding session. Bed bug nymphs may live without blood for several months.
It takes roughly five weeks for a bed bug to mature into an adult, so the infection can spread quickly if left neglected. Bed bug nymphs require more blood and nutrients than adults, and having them in your home means they will bite and continue to suck on your blood. They are also resistant to common insecticides, making them extremely difficult to eliminate. This is why you may want the services of a professional pest control company, like Broken Arrow Exterminator.
Preventing Bed Bugs by Broken Arrow Exterminator
Your home can get infested by bed bugs only when they are brought into your home from outside. To avoid bringing back bed bugs into your home, you have to take precautions. First, try and declutter your home. A cluttered environment breeds more bed bugs. Constantly wash and heat dry your bed sheets, blankets, bedspread, and clothing.
