Valley’s experienced team has taken many hours of specialized training in pest management for bed bug control in residential, senior, and commercial facilities. Not only that, but Valley offers services that its competitors do not, such as canine detection, furniture bagging, fumigation, and training for your employees. We also offer specialized services to senior daycare facilities, nursing homes, transit services, public housing, schools, and churches. That makes Valley the one-stop shop for beg bugs! There are various treatment plans available:
In the initial egg stage, bed bugs look like a curved, whitish-clear grain of salt. The eggs hatch small, just 1/25”, and remain light-colored at first, then get darker and bigger with each blood meal. During the 5th instar stage, the dark center is the blood meal being digested and ready to be excreted. If a blood host is available, bed bugs can live to see three generations of offspring ready to prey on their human hosts.
Females deposit three to eight eggs at a time, for a total of 200-500 eggs in their lifetime. The eggs are often deposited in clusters and attached to cracks, crevices, or rough surfaces near adult harborages, with a sticky epoxy-like substance. Adults can live without feeding for several months (in some reports, for more than 1 year), and nymphs, for at least 3 months.
