Bed Bugs

Bed bugs have extraordinarily small bodies with a brown camouflage, lay eggs everywhere, and are easily transferred, allowing them to infest entire homes and businesses. Bed bugs can be found in mattresses, bedding, clothing, furniture, and more. They are recognized by their musty odor, brown and black spots on infected surfaces, blood stains on mattresses and bedding from crushed bed bugs, or bite marks. Bed bug bites emit a burning sensation and generally are several red marks in a precise line.

Several species of rodents have the capability to squeeze into spaces much smaller than themselves, making even the smallest holes or cracks entrances to your home.

Milwaukee Bed Bug Infestations

Bed Bug Treatment MilwaukeeMilwaukee Bed Bug Infestations

Bed bugs are parasitic insects that feed off of blood exclusively. The common bed bug happens to be quite fond of human blood.

Bed bugs have been feeding on humans for thousands of years. However, since 1995 there has been a dramatic increase in bed bug infestations, and the problem is the worst it has been in years. The city of Milwaukee has suffered a 53% increase in bed bug complaints.

Once an infestation starts, bed bugs are nearly impossible to exterminate without professional help. For residents and business owners in the Milwaukee area, A-Landlords is here to help.

Bed Bugs in Your Milwaukee Home

There are some common signs to look for when determining if your home has been infested. The first, most obvious sign will be bed bug bites. Small, itchy red spots, typically on the hands, face, and/or arms. If you have bites matching this description, it means you have unwillingly fed a family of bed bugs.

Other signs are small dark stains on upholstered furniture or mattresses, the presence of small white bed bug eggs, and live bed bugs. Adult bed bugs are dark brown in color and about the size of an apple seed. They are nocturnal feeders, so they are most often spotted at night. Infestations tend to peak during the warm summer months. 

Bed Bugs in Your Milwaukee Business

Nothing can tarnish the reputation of a business like news of a bed bug infestation. A client or employee may unknowingly pick up bed bugs on a business trip, then transfer them to their car and home. With quick action, the pest problem can be wiped out before spiraling out of control.

The best way to decrease your risk of spreading bed bugs is to wash your bedsheets in the hottest water available, and for the longest wash cycle. Frequent vacuuming of infested spaces, diligent cleaning, and decluttering of your home or business all help. For best results, though, you need a professional exterminator. If you think there is a bed bug problem in your business, contact A-Landlords today.

Bed Bug Treatments Milwaukee Can Trust

A-Landlords provides outstanding, professional pest control services. Due to how quickly bed bugs reproduce, and their ability to hide in small nooks and crannies, getting professional help quickly is the only way to ensure your home will be pest free. DIY bed bug treatments have a depressingly low succes rate, and the longer you wait to bring in a professional exterminator, the bigger the infestation becomes. A-Landlord’s Milwaukee professional exterminating services use proven bed bug treatments so you can have a pest-free home once again.
