What your looking at is a colony of bed bugs on the underside of a couch in a home in Fresno. Full of all your bed bug feces, exoskeletons, bed bug eggs and the bed bugs themselves. All the little white dots are the bed  bug eggs.

It's not very often that people would think about checking the underside of their couch for infestations of bugs. That's how bed bugs go unnoticed for such long periods of time. They are great at hiding close enough to feed but just out of sight.

These are all bed bugs! Taken from one metal frame in a home in Los Angeles. Typically you won't find too many bed bugs nestled in a metal frame unless you have a major infestation on your hands. Metal is not a bed bugs first choice of harborage areas.

You can imagine what the mattress and box springs looked like. Their were literally hundreds if not thousands of bed bugs feeding on the unwilling victims at night.

Bed Bugs caught in climb-up interceptors, where interceptors are placed under bed posts. Bed bugs trying to feed at night, climb up the exterior wall and fall into a slippery slope inner wall where they cannot escape.

This apartment was serviced by our team of expert bed bug exterminators, who know how to kill bed bugs. After the full treatment the tenants have not had any more trouble with bed bugs and have all the necessary information and knowledge to remain bed bug free.

Bed Bug in corner of headboard. All the little white spots in the corner and on the left side of the image are bed bug eggs. This whole headboard was full of bed bugs and eggs.

The people sleeping in the bed had no idea that their headboard was full of bed bugs.

The headboard was actually separated from the frame, but there were three pillows leaning up against the headboard. This made it a perfect hiding place for the bed bugs and a quick access to their host.

Bed Bugs & Eggs

This is a bed bugs life cycle. The eggs are small and oval almost invisible unless you know what your looking for. The nymphs (baby bed bug) are translucent, because they have not had a blood meal.



After each blood meal bed bugs shed their skin and grow a little bigger. This is called molting and they molt 5 times before becoming an adult.



You'll notice the thick dark discoloration in the center of their body; this is blood from their last meal.



The two larger images are both adult bed bugs; one before a meal and the larger oval shaped is right after a blood meal.

Bed Bugs Are Climbers

Treatment $390

Bed bugs cannot fly or jump, but they are great climbers. This picture was taken at a 30 unit hotel in Stockton. The hotel was infested with bed bugs. We performed our bed bug treatment at this hotel and after a couple days and a follow up spot treatment, they are bed bug free.

Notice that the bed bug is high on the drapes, close to the top. This is a typical place to find bed bugs as they love to climb to the highest point of drapes, ceilings, shades etc... 

If a bed or couch or pillow is touching the drape; that's like the perfect freeway system for a bed bug. They can slide right down grab a meal and head back home completely unnoticed.
