What Are Bed Bugs?
Bed bugs are small, wingless insects that are the bane of many homeowners and hoteliers. They can be found on every continent except Antarctica, thriving in almost any environment imaginable. Adult bedbugs are reddish-brown in color, oval-shaped, and around 5-7 mm long. They have a flattened body shape which allows them to fit into some of the tiniest cracks and crevices. Bed bug eggs are white in color and are usually laid in clusters on surfaces near their host.
Bed bugs feed exclusively on blood and need to do so regularly in order to survive. To find their meal they will use a combination of carbon dioxide detection, temperature sensors, as well as visual cues such as movement or shadows to locate potential hosts. Once a host is located these parasites will bite the skin through an injected anesthesia so as not to awaken their host during feeding time. The bites typically happen at night when people are sleeping, making it very difficult for them to detect the problem before it has gotten out of control.
Identifying Signs of a Bed Bug Infestation
- Blood stains or dark spots on sheets or mattresses (bed bug droppings)
- An unpleasant musty odor
- Live sightings (adults, immature stages, or eggs)
- Bites (red welts usually found in straight lines along exposed skin)
- Tiny red dots appearing on your skin
- Discarded skins from nymphs as they mature
- Eggshells, shed exoskeletons, and fecal spots on mattress tags and seams.
Understanding the Bed Bug Life Cycle and Infestation Risks
Females can lay about 200-500 eggs during their lifetime and those eggs hatch after about 2 weeks. The newly hatched bugs will then take roughly 4-5 weeks until they reach full maturity where they can then reproduce themselves. This creates an infestation cycle that can quickly get out of hand if not addressed early on with professional help from a qualified pest control company like Bonanza Pest Control.

- Treatment plan - Once we identify the extent of the infestation we create a customized treatment plan tailored specifically to your needs which includes targeted treatments with specialized products designed specifically for bed bugs like insect growth regulators that prevent the reproductive cycle of the insects and residual insecticides for long-term control.
