What are Bed Bugs?

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.

The classic signs of bed bug infestations are itchy, reddish-colored bites, dark fecal spotting on mattresses, blood smears, adult bugs, molts of the shell that are left behind, small bed bugs, and tiny, whitish-colored eggs.

How To Prevent Bed Bugs

Fumigation

Fumigation is the only one-time guaranteed method of eliminating bed bugs in all stages. Treatments are offered for structural, container, and vehicle fumigation. A one-time fumigation treatment with VikaneⓇ gas is the most effective treatment option. When infestations are confirmed, the quickest treatment method is to treat the entire home or building at once and all vehicles when possible. Container fumigation is a great option for treating furniture, electronics, and clothing before moving into a new home or business space. There is a minimal amount of preparation needed for this gas treatment. The gas fumigation is recommended if you have clutter since the gas reaches all open areas. This treatment is most commonly recommended for single-family homes, stand-alone businesses or properties, vehicles, electronics, and books.

Spray and Dust

Spray and dust treatments are done every week to single-family homes, multi-family units, businesses, and healthcare facilities by spraying and dusting bedrooms, furniture, floors, walls, electrical outlets, and baseboards. There is strict preparatory work that must be done before each treatment. This treatment is recommended for those who do not have a lot of clutter, can complete the preparatory work each time, and can be out of their home or business for several hours after each treatment. Usually, multiple treatments are required for spray and dust. Having the weekly preparation done before treatment and maintaining great communication with your technician make a huge impact on the length of treatment time.
