Get Rid of Bed Bugs in NJ

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.
