If you suspect you have bed bugs in your home you can try to look for them, but beg bugs can be very difficult to locate. They know exactly where to hide and their size makes them hard to see. Because of their name and their tendency to feed on people as they sleep, people naturally assume that bed bugs live in the bed somewhere.
People have a tendency to flip back their sheets and look at their pillows, but oftentimes they may not go far enough. Those that do look at the mattress and in its crevices still may not find the insects, or they may discover a few and think that those few are the culprits.
The truth is that bed bugs reproduce rather quickly and their eggs are difficult to see due to their size and light coloring. In addition to this, bed bugs may not be found at all just by checking mattresses and sheets. They will hide in all sorts of places if they can. This can mean bed bugs in the carpeting or rug, behind picture frames on the walls, behind loosewallpaper, under box springs, and plenty of other locations that the majority of people never think to look.
Calling in Professionals – With Extra Help
The best way to get rid of bed bugs for good is to contact professionals. But if you can’t find the bed bugs, how will the pest technician do it? Pest control technicians will already know all of the different places that bed bugs can hide. However, one or two people doing the job can still take time to locate all of them – or at least get a general idea of where they may be hiding.
A better, faster, and much more efficient option is one that Ross Environmental Solutions has adopted – literally. Dogs.
A dog’s nose is hundreds of times more sensitive than a human’s and their noses have been used in all sorts of unique ways to help us detect things. In fact, bed bugs pose no difficulty at all to a dog trained to smell them. A dog can quickly go through a room and if he or she smells no bed bugs, move on to the next room. The moment a dog smells bed bugs they will let the handler know. The handler will then check for him or herself to discover the bed bugs.
Dogs can speed up the detection of bed bugs immensely. It can be very interesting to watch them work and see them halt once they catch the scent. It is very rare that a dog will indicate there are bugs when there are none. Their noses are far too keen and have become a fantastic asset to us and to our customers.
