BED
BUGS

The
common bed bug, which had almost disappeared in the
United States, has made a strong comeback over the past
several years. This resurgence has resulted in a growing
problem for both commercial businesses as well as homeowners.
Since female bed bugs lay eggs in batches of 10 to 50
at a time, and newly hatched bed bugs reach reproductive
maturity in as little as 6 weeks, the key to preventing
major bed bug infestations is proper identification
of the insect when their presence is first suspected.
Mature
bed bugs are 1/4 to 3/8 of an inch long with an oval
shaped, wingless body that appears flattened. Unfed
insects will be brown to red-brown in color with their
body having a sort of “wrinkled” look, while
an engorged bed bug will be a dull red color and its
body will be elongated and swollen. Bed bug eggs are
white and about 1/32 of an inch in length. Newly hatched
bed bugs are virtually colorless.
Since
bed bugs are essentially nocturnal feeders, daytime
inspections should include key resting areas such as
folds and tufts of mattresses and the cracks and crevices
of bed frames. Indications of a bed bug presence include
brown or black spotting (bed bug excrement), eggs, egg
shells and cast skins. These signs are usually found
on or very close to bedding areas although couches,
futons and other furniture that are slept on regularly
should also be inspected. As the insect population grows,
these insects may move farther from the food host and
begin to rest in areas such as behind baseboards, under
carpeting edges and various other cracks and crevices
throughout the home.
