3 Reasons to Choose Lexington Bed Bug Exterminator

Written by Posted On Wednesday, 16 November 2016 08:01

Bed bugs are one of the most annoying home pests, not only because they suck your blood, but also because they're hard to kill. According to a study conducted by the North Carolina State University, these bloodsucking insects are capable of producing healthy off-springs even if they mate with their closest relatives. Since these bugs are inbreeders, they produce more offspring within a short period of time, and before you know, your entire bed is colonized by these bed bug families.

Moreover, these insects are hard to eliminate completely. Many expert researchers believe that it takes only two bed bugs to start the infestation of even entire buildings, as they can mate with each other and even their own mothers to produce offspring. Due to this invasive nature, bed bugs cost a whopping $40 million a year in New York City alone, causing innumerable problems for both tenants and owners.

The best way to get rid of these bed bugs is to take the help of professional companies that specialize in this line of work. If you live in any of the heavy bed bug infested cities in the US such as Chicago, Omaha, Lexington, KY, Sacramento, Buffalo, Detroit, Los Angeles and Cleveland, Ohio, the services of these exterminator companies are vital for your health.

Let's see some reasons for choosing these companies.

Identifying bed bugs

The hardest part of an extermination is identifying the presence of these bed bugs. You have to constantly monitor your bed and the surrounding areas for signs of these bugs. Typically, you can find these bugs clustered near the host, so they tend to be under your sheets or even your mattress and pillows. If you look closely, you'll see signs of dead skin. Juvenile bugs shed their skin before becoming adults. In general, the presence of such skins indicate an infestation. These signs are hard to find, and it's best to leave them to experts.

Extermination methods

Bed bugs are present across the entire country, though it is more in some cities when compared to others. According to a report by a company called Orkin, the rate of bed bugs grew exponentially in cities like Lexington, KY over the last year. In fact, this city scored 16 points, one of the highest in the list, when it came to the prevalence of bed bugs. To tackle this problem,, it's a good idea to choose a Lexington bed bug exterminator as they'll be armed with the right extermination methods to eliminate these bugs. Likewise, if you're in another city, opt for local bed bug exterminators as they'll be more familiar with the local laws and regulations in this regard.

Environmental responsibility

Though pests have to be exterminated, they have to be done so in a conscientious and environmentally-friendly manner. This is why it's important to choose companies that will do this for you. In addition, check if they're certified to operate in your city.

 

In short, bed bugs are quite a nuisance, and they have to be exterminated thoroughly and in a conscientious manner, and at the same time, it should be safe for your family and environment.
