What Are Bed Bugs?

Bed bugs are small, wingless insects that feed on human blood. They’re excellent hitchhikers — traveling into homes via luggage, used furniture, even hotel stays. Once they’re in your home, they multiply rapidly and hide in tiny cracks: mattresses, box springs, bed frames, even behind baseboards or picture frames.

Bed bugs aren’t just annoying — they reproduce quickly, hide deep in your home’s crevices, and some treatment methods fail to reach all their hiding spots. Without professional elimination, infestations return and spread.

Why our approach matters
Because we specialize exclusively in bed-bug elimination through heat treatment, we target all life stages — adults, nymphs and eggs. Our process ensures your home is fully clear so you don’t have to worry about “what if a few survived.”

Signs of bed bugs

  • Red, itchy bites (often in a line) on arms, legs or torso

  • Rust-colored stains on mattress seams

  • Live bugs or shed skins near mattress tufts, box spring

  • Musty odor in heavy infestations
    If you notice any of these signs, call us immediately — early detection = easier treatment.
