How to Get Rid of Bed Bugs and Where to Find Them

Spots on the skin from bed bug bites will most likely show on skin that remains bare while one sleeps - the arms and legs, face and neck are all frequently bitten - and it is to these areas one needs to turn when looking for indications of the little horrors.

The important sign, then, is the aftermath of an insect bite, irritating and itching, and this must be checked thoroughly to be sure whether it results from Bed Bugs or other causes.

As we have said the Bed Bug is a night loving animal and it adores to feed on our blood. It also tends to hide, and this is why it belongs in our beds and other items. Although the Bed Bug does not nest like a number of other similar mites, it does frequent suitable places, so that several will hide together in the nooks of a mattress, the inside of covers and linings and other dark and hidden places.

This willingness to hide does make the Bed Bug tricky to find, but once you understand where to look - and are sure of the presence of the little mites - it is a case of using common sense to determine the places where they will be sleeping.

Bed Bugs are on many occasions brought into the home by those who have been away, and have often slept on a number of unfamiliar and frequently used beds. It is not often a case of misplaced hygiene, however, as no end of hotels and guest houses have also been the cause of infestations. The reason for this is that the miniature bug is well trained at hiding and breeds - as we have seen - astonishingly quickly; with one female bug laying as many as five eggs per day it is clear to see how quickly the colony can expand.

The opening step is to do away with the affected mattress and any other things that may be infested by the creatures. This may sound like worrying action to many but it is important to know that getting rid of all the eggs and bugs with off the shelf remedies may not be fully successful.

Also, all items, covers and linings that have been seen to harbor bugs - or are suspected of having been - need to be thoroughly put through the wash; if possible this will best be done on the hottest notch possible as a sure way to kill the bugs.
