Understanding Bed Bugs: What You Need to Know
Bed bugs are small, flat, reddish-brown insects that feed on human and animal blood. They hide in mattresses, bed frames, furniture, and even tiny cracks and crevices, making them notoriously difficult to spot and eliminate. Despite their size, their impact can be significant, causing itchy bites, allergic reactions, and psychological stress.
If you suspect a bed bug infestation, acting fast is crucial. The longer you wait, the more they multiply and spread. Custom Pest Control specializes in early detection and complete eradication of bed bugs to ensure your home is safe and pest-free.
