UNDERSTANDING THE BED BUG PROBLEM IN QUEENS

New York City has remained one of the top 10 bed bug infested cities in the United States for the past several years, and Queens is not immune to this major problem. The bed bug invasion has severely affected many lives in the area, and it is important to understand why. Bed bugs are often blamed on low-income communities, sometimes more crowded and more susceptible to dirt. This is a common misconception; the NYC bed bug invasion actually began with upper- and middle-class families who frequently and internationally travel, bringing the little hitchhikers home attached to luggage. Regardless of how they entered, bedbugs have become rampant throughout the NYC boroughs, especially Queens. And our team of Bedbug Dogs is here to restore your home to its bedbug-free state.

What Exactly Are Bed Bugs?

Bed bugs are parasitic insects that feed exclusively on blood. Its common name arose because of where it makes its preferred home - in your home; it prefers warm houses especially near or inside beds. They are very sneaky, and can usually feed on their hosts without even being noticed. During the mid-1900s, bed bugs were nearly eradicated on a global scale, but due to pesticide-resistance, they are growing immune to the common removal methods, and have crawled rapidly back into our lives.

Signs You May Have Bed Bugs in Queens, NY

Unfortunately, bed bugs are very small and can be difficult to find. But if you are aware of what to look for, you may catch an epidemic before it begins.
 

Some of the best places to look without any equipment required can be:

• Headboards

• Bedside tables

• Any crevices near a sleeping areas, like baseboards, mattress seams, and loose wallpaper
  

There are also a number of physical signs homeowners can notice, including:

• Bed bug exoskeletons, which are red or brown and about 5 mm in length

• Blood stains on your bedding or pajamas

• Fecal spots in your bed, which resemble small stains in a brown or black color
  

Bed bug bites are not usually the best indicator of an infestation because not everyone reacts the same to a bed bug bite. However, if you notice reoccurring bites on your or your family’s bodies, it may be cause for concern.
 

Symptoms of bed bug bites generally include:

• Swollen, red welts

• Itching and burning

• A rash across the infected area

• Straight lines of multiple bed bug bites
