Signs You Have a Bed Bug Infestation

Bed bugs are notorious for being elusive and resilient pests that can turn your peaceful nights into a nightmare. Recognizing the signs of a bed bug infestation early is crucial for prompt and effective elimination.

Red Coat Pest Solutions is here to help you identify the common indicators of a bed bug infestation so that you can take action as soon as possible:

• Unexplained Skin Irritations: One of the most telltale signs of a bed bug infestation is unexplained skin irritations. Bed bug bites often appear as small, itchy, red welts that are typically arranged in a line or cluster. These bites can be mistaken for mosquito or flea bites, but they tend to occur in areas exposed while sleeping, such as the face, neck, arms, and legs.
• Bloodstains on Bedding: Bed bugs feed on human blood, and when they are disturbed during their nighttime feeding sessions, they may leave behind small bloodstains on your sheets, pillowcases, or pajamas. These reddish-brown stains are a result of crushed bed bugs or the blood they've ingested.
• Dark Spots and Fecal Matter: Bed bugs also leave behind dark, rust-colored spots or fecal matter on bedding, mattresses, and furniture. These stains are often found in areas where bed bugs hide during the day, such as mattress seams, crevices, or the corners of furniture. These spots are a clear sign of bed bug activity.
• Musty Odor: Bed bugs release a musty, sweet odor that is often described as smelling like coriander or almonds. This scent can become particularly noticeable in areas with heavy infestations. If you detect an unusual, persistent odor in your bedroom or living spaces, it could be a sign of a bed bug infestation.
• Bed Bug Shells: As bed bugs grow, they molt, shedding their outer shells. You may come across these discarded exoskeletons in areas where bed bugs hide, such as between mattress seams or in cracks and crevices. The presence of these translucent shells is a strong indication that bed bugs are reproducing in your home.
• Live Bed Bugs: Perhaps the most undeniable sign of a bed bug infestation is the sighting of live bed bugs. These reddish-brown, oval-shaped insects are approximately the size of an apple seed. You may find them hiding in mattress seams, box springs, bed frames, or even behind wallpaper.

Bed bugs are notoriously difficult to eliminate on your own, and ignoring an infestation can lead to its rapid spread. If you suspect that you have a bed bug problem due to any of these signs, it's essential to act promptly and contact the team at Red Coat Pest Solutions.

How Can I Tell if I've Been Bitten by a Bed Bug?

It can be tricky to know for sure that you've been bitten by a bed bug unless you can also find signs of an infestation. Bed bugs inject an anticoagulant and an anesthetic when they bite, preventing you from feeling the bite. It can take anywhere from a day to several days for the marks to appear, and they tend to look similar to a flea or mosquito bite with slight swelling and red coloring around the bite.

While some bed bug bites can just be itchy like other bug bites, they can also cause anxiety, insomnia, and other skin problems if you can't help but scratch at them. Some people are also allergic to the bites, which can lead to enlarged marks, painful swelling, and in extreme cases, anaphylaxis.

Red Coat’s Bed Bug Protection Program

Are you asking yourself “how do I prevent bed bugs from infesting my home?” Do you work in high risk environments where bed bugs are prevalent? Have you gotten bed bugs before and want to prevent bed bugs in the future? Or you might just want a little professional help but are looking for a more economic option. Then Red Coat’s Bed Bug Protection Program is the solution you have been looking for!

Red Coat uses a cutting edge new non-toxic microbial bio-pesticide, designed to be all natural and safe for your family and pets. The EPA approved product is applied to the home quarterly in high risk areas where bed bugs hide. It is odorless and invisible after it dries.

Bed bugs have no natural defense to the product so they cannot escape it. Once they are exposed, they bring it back to the nest, contaminate their friends and then die. The product provides control for up to 90 days when left undisturbed. Our clients have us reapply it every quarter to continue their protection.

Pre-treatment preparations are easy and limited to stripping beds, straightening the home and removing pets. Most treatments take under 2 hours and you can return to your home after 4 hours. Pricing varies depending on if you are treating an infestation or if you are preventing one. But it is definitely less expensive than traditional chemical pesticide or heat treatments.
