Cities from coast to coast are experiencing an outbreak of bed bug infestations report NJ pest control professionals.  A tell-tale sign of a bed bug infestation is awakening with red itchy bite marks that burn.  Some people experience bite marks in a row while others have bite marks sporadically throughout their body.  Bed bugs mostly bite at night, unless there is a bad infestation underway.  They typically bite exposed skin, rather than skin that is covered by pajamas, so the legs, arms, neck and the face are common places to encounter bed bug bites.

To help combat bed bugs infestations, NJ pest control professionals will often use different avenues to try to determine where the pests are hiding.  Bed bug sniffing dogs are frequently used as they are trained to be able to detect bed bugs and their eggs in any type of dwelling.  Hotels, office buildings, and homes have benefited from bed bug sniffer dogs as they are extremely fast and accurate at locating bed bugs and their eggs in a matter of minutes.

When bed bugs are suspected, NJ pest control professionals will suggest that homeowners use mattress encasements to keep bed bugs from biting while they sleep.  The Protect-A-Bed Mattress Encasement will seal in any bed bugs and their eggs permanently and the special zipper will not allow any of the bloodsuckers to escape.  The special fabric is completely bite proof which ensures a good night’s rest and the ability to salvage a previously infested mattress.
