Bed Bug Control and Removal Services
Bed bugs are among the most stubborn pests to deal with. DIY sprays and home remedies are unlikely to resolve the problem once they have established themselves in a property. These insects lurk in crevices, multiply, and lead you to sleepless nights as they bite you and leave painful, itchy marks. If you’re struggling to get rid of bed bugs, professional help is the safest solution.
At ASM Pest Control, our trained and licensed bed bug exterminators provide thorough inspection, treatment, and prevention plans for homes, apartments, hotels, and businesses. Whether it’s a small issue or a widespread infestation, our goal is complete removal and lasting protection.
Our team is dedicated to eliminating bed bugs from your home with effective and proven methods. Bed bug bites can cause itching, rashes, and discomfort that lingers for days, making infestations especially stressful. Because these pests have developed resistance to many over-the-counter sprays, removal can be difficult without professional expertise. With ASM Pest Control, you get a trusted partner who knows how to target bed bugs at every stage and ensure they are fully removed.
Why You Need Professional Bed Bug Control
Bed bugs live only on the blood of human beings. They attack the exposed parts at night and usually leave a cluster of itchy red marks. Although they do not cause any diseases, the itchiness, sleeplessness, and stress that they bring make the presence of infestations unbearable.
Over-the-counter sprays may kill a few visible pests, but they won’t reach the eggs or bugs hidden deep inside walls and furniture. That’s why professional pest control is the only reliable way to eliminate them.
How to Identify Bed Bugs
Not sure if you’re dealing with bed bugs? Here are the most common signs:
- Red, itchy bites, often appearing in clusters on arms or legs
- Blood stains on sheets, mattresses, or pillowcases
- Dark, rust-colored spots (bed bug excrement) on bedding or walls
- Shed skins, eggs, or eggshells near hiding spots
- A musty, unpleasant odor is coming from their scent glands
If you notice any of these, it’s time for a professional inspection.
Types of Bed Bugs
There are several types of bed bugs, but the two most common that affect homes are:
Cimex lectularius (Common Bed Bug): This is the most widespread species in North America. They are reddish-brown, flat, and oval-shaped. Adults are about 4–5 mm long.
Cimex hemipterus (Tropical Bed Bug): More common in warmer climates, but can travel internationally with the travellers. Similar to common bed bugs, they are around 4–6 mm long.
Bat Bugs: Similar in appearance but usually live near bats; they may bite humans if their primary host isn’t available. Slightly smaller, about 3–5 mm long.
Where Do Bed Bugs Hide?
Because of their flat bodies, bed bugs squeeze into spaces as thin as a credit card. They don’t build nests but gather in groups, making them difficult to spot. Common hiding places include:
- Mattresses, box springs, and bedding
- Bed frames, headboards, and furniture joints
- Baseboards, walls, and cracks in floors
- Electrical outlets, smoke detectors, and electronics
- Carpets, curtains, and upholstered furniture
- Luggage, clothing, and even vehicles
Bed Bug Inspection Methods
A detailed inspection is the first step in any successful treatment. Our team uses:
- Visual Inspection: Looking for live bugs, eggs, skins, or stains.
- Trap Inspection: Setting passive or active traps to confirm their presence in hidden areas.
- Specialized Equipment: Using tools like flashlights and magnifiers to identify even early-stage infestations.
This helps us plan the right course of action for each situation.
Bed Bug Treatment Options
Every infestation is unique, so we customize our approach. Our proven methods include:
- Chemical Sprays: Professional-grade products that eliminate live bugs and disrupt their reproductive cycle.
- Steaming & Heat Treatment: High temperatures kill bed bugs and their eggs in hard-to-reach areas.
- Vacuuming: Removes visible pests, eggs, and debris to reduce infestation levels.
- Follow-Up Treatments: Ensures that any surviving eggs or newly hatched bugs are eliminated.
This multi-step process works more effectively than DIY products alone.
Cost of Bed Bug Services
The cost of hiring a bed bug exterminator near you depends on:
- Size of the infestation
- Number of rooms affected
- Type of treatment required
- Follow-up visits needed
While home remedies may seem cheaper, professional services save time and money by fully resolving the problem.
Bed Bug Prevention Tips
After treatment, prevention is key to keeping bed bugs out:
- Inspect hotel rooms and luggage while traveling
- Wash clothes and bedding in hot water after trips
- Vacuum regularly, especially bedrooms and furniture
- Seal cracks in walls, baseboards, and bed frames
- Avoid bringing second-hand furniture home without inspection
These simple steps reduce the chances of another bed bug infestation.
