Bed Bug In Scary Halloween Costume

In the spirit of this spooky Halloween season we thought it was appropriate to share our opinion of the scariest pest! Bed bugs continue to infest homes and businesses in Ohio and Michigan and they are not showing signs of letting up. So make sure that you do not allow bed bugs to sneak past the door this Halloween with these bed bug prevention tips.

  1. Learn how to identify the signs of a bed bug infestation - Dark spots on linens, light brown colored skin encasements, bed bug bites, and live bugs themselves.

  2. Perform thorough inspections of your home and any rooms that you travel to using a flashlight for best results.

  3. Always inspect the hidden areas too, not just the beds. This includes under carpets, along baseboards and even inside electrical outlets.

  4. Vacuum your home on a regular basis and remove clutter to make it harder for bed bugs to embed into your home.

  5. Contact a professional bed bug control company at the first sign of a problem or even is you simply suspect one.
