What are bed bugs?

Bed bugs are structural invading pests that live wherever there are people. Bed bugs DO NOT discriminate based on socio-economic status or cleanliness. Rags or riches, first-class luxury resort or low rate motel, bed bugs don't care. Bed bugs have an insatiable appetite for blood. Bed bugs like to live near us because they feed on blood and humans happen to be their favorite hosts. Bed bugs are tiny and have flattened oval-shaped bodies. These bugs look like apple seeds with legs. Bed bugs have a short antennae, six legs, and a proboscis – an elongated mouthpart they use for feeding.

Bed bugs feed on warm-blooded animals, and in addition to us, they may also feed on our pet dogs, cats, and birds. After consuming a blood meal, their body expands into a more capsule-like shape. 

Some of the most common places you'll find these pests include:

  • Airports and bus stations
  • Hotels and motels
  • Resorts and casinos
  • Libraries and movie theaters
  • Shopping centers and office buildings
  • Single-family homes and apartment buildings

Are bed bugs dangerous?

While bed bugs are pests that no one wants to contend with, there is some good news; they aren’t currently a significant threat when it comes to spreading diseases. However, they cause other problems, including itchy bites, sleepless nights, and adding more stress to your day.

These prolific pests love to live inside our homes and won’t just go away. These pests need to be managed by a professional to eliminate them from your house. Every single bed bug, egg, and nymph needs to be destroyed to stop a reinfestation.

Why do I have a bed bug problem?

Las Vegas is a popular tourist destination which means we have millions of people traveling in and out of our area on a daily basis. All people have the potential to be traveling with hitchhiking bed bugs. Anytime you are in a public place, you can come into contact with bed bugs and accidentally introduce them into your home.

Where will I find bed bugs?

Bed bugs live indoors. They received their name because they like to live near their sleeping hosts in mattresses and box springs. Bed bugs also favor upholstered furniture and pet bedding.

It is important to realize that bed bugs don’t just stay in bedrooms. These critters are prolific breeders, and as the infestation develops, they will move throughout the house and inhabit many different places, including:

  • Wall voids
  • Space behind wood trim and baseboards
  • Under piles of clutter and dirty laundry
  • Inside of electrical outlets and electronics
  • In the cracks of pieces of wooden furniture
