BED BUG

Bed bugs have made a strong comeback in the U.S., with reports increasing by over 500% in the last decade. These pests can survive for months without feeding and are excellent at hiding in mattresses, furniture, and cracks in walls.

Pest Details

Bed bugs can survive for months without feeding and are excellent at hiding in mattresses, furniture, and cracks in walls. Studies show that one in five Americans has encountered bed bugs at some point, making prevention and early detection crucial.

  • Bed bugs enter homes by hitching a ride on luggage, clothing, furniture, or used mattresses. They spread through hotels, public transportation, and secondhand items, hiding in cracks, bedding, and upholstery once inside.

  • Bed bugs aren’t structurally destructive, but their bites cause itching, allergic reactions, and sleep disturbances. Infestations spread quickly, leading to costly extermination and stress, and their presence can lower property value.

  • Bed bugs live about 4–6 months, but in ideal conditions, they can survive up to a year without feeding. Their rapid reproduction makes infestations hard to control.

  • To eliminate bed bugs, wash bedding and clothes in hot water, vacuum regularly, and use mattress encasements. Apply heat treatments or insecticides to infested areas, and seal cracks where they hide. For severe infestations, professional extermination is the best option. Toro pest solution can help you get rid of bed bugs - for long-term solutions.

  • No, bed bugs do not have venom. They inject anesthetic-laced saliva when they bite, preventing immediate pain but causing itchy, red welts afterward.

  • Bed bugs do not spread diseases, but their bites can cause itching, allergic reactions, and secondary infections from scratching. Infestations can also lead to stress and sleep disturbances.
