To get rid of bed bugs in NJ, you need time, patience and a reputable pest
control company. Alco NJ Animal and Pest Control specializes in bed
bug removal throughout the state of NJ.
Bed bugs typically seek blood every
five to 10 days, and feed right before sunrise. After they feed, they
retreat back to their hiding spaces which could be anything from your
bed to luggage to even your drawers. It may take a while to notice
the bites, because they are not immediately felt.
Acquiring bed bugs in NJ is not something that happens because you are dirty
or have a dirty home. This is not an issue of cleanliness. They can
be picked up anywhere, from guests in your home, to floors of public
places to even the cleanest hotels. Once they latch onto something or
someone mobile, they will find somewhere to make their home.
If you find yourself with bites, do not
automatically assume it is from a bed bug. Even getting the bites
checked out by a doctor will not completely verify that you have a
bed bug infestation. The only way to truly tell if you have bed bugs
in your home is to produce a sample of the bug.
To produce a sample of bed bugs, you
should check not only your bed, but the other furniture in your room
as well. Sometimes they tend to hide in corners of furniture, within
clothes piles if there are any and even around wall-to-wall carpets.
If you find a specimen, calling a pest
control company is the next step to thoroughly get rid of bed bugs in NJ. You do not need to throw out any furniture or
clothing items just because you have bed bugs. Washing clothes and
other affected items and vacuuming, in addition to pest
control, will ensure that the area is clean.
Keep in mind that there is no set time
to get rid of bed bugs in NJ;
however, if you are bed bug free for a period of 60 days, that is a
sign that they are no longer in your home.
