Bedbugs Control in Barking and Dagenham

Bed bugs are round flat insects of a rich reddish brown colour that cannot fly. They must either crawl or be passively transported in clothing, luggage and furniture etc.

In temperate climates bed bugs reach their peak numbers towards early autumn. They do not carry disease but their blood feeding can cause severe irritation in some people, resulting in loss of sleep, lack of energy and listlessness, particularly in children.

Bed bug bites mainly consist of a raised red bump, accompanied by intense itching. They are caused by an allergic reaction to the bug’s saliva and the bites can take several days to appear.

The bites may also generally be seen in 3s, which distinguishes them from flea bites.

Signs of an infestation

• Red irritating bites, typically in rows on your neck, shoulders, back, legs or arms.
• Clusters or dark spots (about 1mm wide) that look like an ink dot are usually found on the bed frame or on the bottom side of the mattress.
• Small blood smears on the bed linen or headboard.
• Finding the small brown insects in and around your bed frame and sleeping area.
