The Bed Bug Problem
Bed bugs have made a major comeback in recent decades. These nocturnal blood-feeders hide in mattresses, furniture, and cracks during the day, emerging at night to feed on sleeping hosts.
Bed bugs spread through travel, used furniture, and even apartment walls. Having bed bugs has nothing to do with cleanliness—they can infest any home, from modest apartments to luxury hotels.
A small infestation can explode quickly. Female bed bugs lay 1-5 eggs per day, and populations can double every 16 days under ideal conditions. Early detection and treatment are critical.
