Where Do Bed Bugs Live?
Living inside your bedding these blood suckers will lay eggs in hard to get areas. Once you settle down for the night and stop moving about they wait until they can feel the warmth of your body heat and come out to eat. Blood is needed to survive and for the females to produce eggs. The Bed Bug will pierce your skin using its needle like mouthpiece and draw enough blood in a few minutes to increase their body weight by five times. Producing its own glue the female bed bug will glue her eggs in the crevices of your bedding. The eggs have to be put out of harms way but close enough to be about to find a food source once they hatch.

Seeing bite marks on the skin normally gets attributed to fleas or bed bugs but can in some cases be some form of mites or lice. If Bed Bugs or Fleas are not found but biting insects symptoms are present we can put down sticky traps to collect samples over the course of a week. Being microscopic insects, these samples are sent to an Entomologist for analysis.
