Bed Bugs

Some people think of bed bugs as no more than part of that cute bedtime saying: “Sleep tight. Don’t let the bed bugs bite!” But many know better; that bed bugs are quite real, and far from cute. They are named as such because of their preference to live in your bedding and mattresses and then feed on sleeping occupants at night. If you even suspect you have an infestation in your Savannah home, we recommend you call BeeGreen Pest Solutions right away before they are able to populate and a more serious infestation takes hold.

Appearance and Habits of Bed Bugs

Before they feed, bed bugs are small, brownish insects with flat, oval-shaped bodies and after they feed they are fat and reddish in color as they are filled with your blood! They are extremely difficult to detect and control because of their small size, tendency to hide during the day, their ability to hitchhike a ride on luggage, clothes and furniture and finally the fact that they are prolific breeders. Females can lay up to five eggs a day and 500 during a lifetime!

Signs of an Infestation

Typically, the first sign of an infestation are small, itchy red clusters on exposed skin and the appearance of small brownish or reddish dots on bed linens and mattresses. These are droppings and blood spots. Sometimes eggs and molted skins may also be visible. Heavy infestations carry a sweet smell.
