Bed Bug Pest Control in the Coachella Valley
Bed bugs are most commonly found in areas where you sleep, including bedrooms, hotels, and rental homes. During the day, these parasites rest near sleeping locations, coming out only at night to feed on the blood of mammals. Bed bugs typically feed every 5 to 10 days but can live up to a couple months without “a meal.”

How to Eliminate Bed Bugs
A thorough inspection is necessary to detect all nesting sites. Odors and little spots of blood that they produce assist in pinpointing these areas. A vacuum cleaner will remove some of the bugs. Bed bugs can be controlled with thorough applications of residual insecticides applied to cracks and crevices, behind baseboards and into other known or suspected nesting areas, furniture, especially mattress and box springs should also be lightly sprayed. Dust formulations can effectively be used in wall voids and attics. To prevent possible exposure to chemicals and mis applications calling a trained professional is the best option to quickly take care of a bed bug problem.
Where Do Bed Bugs Come From?
Bed bugs come from other infested areas. They can hitch a ride on luggage, clothes, purses, backpacks or anything placed in or near an infested area. They can travel between rooms in multi unit buildings, such as apartment complexes or hotels.
How to Identify Bed Bugs
The Adult bed bug is 3/16 Inch long, oval, flat and red/mahogany in color. The bed bug is flat and thin when unfed. It'll get larger and more red when it's full of blood.
Can Bed Bugs Fly or Jump?
Although Bed bugs do have wings,their wing pads are too small to allow the insect to fly. They also do not jump but are great climbers, they will go as far as 15 feet for a blood meal.
Do Bed Bug Bites Transmit Diseases?
Although bed bugs have been associated with many diseases, transmission has not been conclusively proven. Their bites can cause extreme itchiness and redness all over your body.
