What To Do If You Think You Might Have Toronto’s Bedbugs

Have you or members of your family woken up with red, itchy bites recently?

There’s a good chance you have bed bugs at your home!

These members of the Cimicidae family are tiny insects. They aren’t ticks, but they do feed on blood—of you, your kids, or your pets. These bloodsuckers can grow up to a quarter of an inch long and usually have a flat, oval type shape. Their coloring is generally white or brown, and if you disturb them (e.g., move around, turn on the lights), they’ll try to run and hide. For this reason, smaller infestations can be hard to discover, because after you’ve woken up and begun moving around, making noise, and so on, they’ll retreat to their hiding places and leave your skin itchy and irritated.

These insects can be very difficult to see if they’re smaller, but no matter the size, they’re a nuisance and a health hazard. We call them “bedbugs” because they like to live in soft materials like beds, but they can also crop up in your sofas, chairs, or anywhere else similar to that.

If you believe you have bed bugs, the smartest thing you can do to eliminate them from your home permanently is to immediately seek out professional exterminator pest control services specializing in bed bug removal in Toronto in Mississauga, Pesticon.

Even If Your Toronto Home Is Clean, You Can Get Bed Bugs

There’s a common misconception that in order to get bed bugs, you must have an unclean home in ill repair. For some Toronto homeowners, this makes “admitting” to having bed bugs embarrassing, but the fact of the matter is that these insects aren’t particularly attracted to a specific kind of environment. Whether a building is clean or dirty makes little difference to them—all they care about is whether or not there’s a steady supply of food (that’s you).

Bed bugs have been found in mansions and apartments, cruise ships and college dorms. Once they arrive, they’ll begin breeding. How they got there is an important consideration so that you can avoid it again in the future, and a pest control professionals might be able to help you discover their source so that after they’ve been removed you can make sure that they never return.
