To find bed bugs, you need to know what to look for, and if you want to find them before they breed madly and become a serious problem, you may want to have some bed bug detection tools and some detection skills on hand. .

First, it is a good idea to know where bed bugs reside. Since they hide when there is no host to bite into, unless you are in bed sleeping peacefully, they probably are not in bed either. You have to know where to look and what to look for if you want to find them early. If you walk into the bedroom and see them running for cover, then you already have a very serious problem.

Bed bug’s favorite hiding places are crevices, seams, or crevices near their next meal. In hotels, the headboards are usually attached to the wall and that is probably the number one place to hide the annoying night pests. The next favorite is the bed itself, whether at the mattress’s seams and folds, anywhere on the bed frame and between the mattress and the bed frame. They will also hide in dresser drawers and seams in wood, behind outlet covers, under stools, bedside tables, and in other furniture such as a sofa or armchair.

For an initial inspection, you will need a powerful flashlight. Look closely at any area that may be home to one of these creatures. Look for dark spots that could be insect droppings. Look for small white eggs the size of the head of a pin and are usually found in clusters. Also watch closely for blood-colored or rust-colored stains on bedding, mattresses, and other items that could be an indication of broken insects after eating. Also check yourself for bites that could be similar to mosquito bites or that could be as large as a quarter if you are allergic.

If you think you have bites but can’t find any bugs, you may want to get “bed bug cups.” These are glasses with a small heat source in the center and filled with a sticky substance so that pests get in and get stuck. They are ideal for hiding under beds or tables where the company cannot see them. Check them daily as they could be the first sign of a bed bug problem.

You can also get “climbing glasses”. These cups are placed under the legs of your bed and the walls are coated with talcum powder. The insects climb on the outside to reach you and fall into the well. The talcum powder makes the sides of the bowl slippery so they can’t get out. Also, you can get carbon dioxide-powered traps that mimic respiration and have a heat source to attract pests indoors, where they die.

These are all methods of detecting a bed bug infestation. I recommend prevention as an important part of managing an outbreak. If you have one or more of these measures in place and regularly check for signs of an early infestation, you can quickly get rid of them before they become a problem. Pest control companies have reported a huge 81% increase in bed bug calls since 2000. It is very likely that you will soon be faced with this problem. To be prepared.
