About Professional Congleton Bed Bug Treatment

Bed BugBed bugs which are also called Cimex lectularius are small insects that live in and around your bed and suck your blood at night. Usually, bed bugs come out to feed at night. They are attracted to the body heat and the carbon dioxide that you breathe out. Though they do not carry or transmit diseases, they are known to bite exposed skin causing itchiness. For this reason, you should contact Congleton bed bug treatment professionals as soon as you suspect there are bed bugs in your home.

About Bed Bugs

Identification
An adult bed bug is oval in shape and about 5mm in length. It is also wingless. As bed bugs grow and mature they moult or shed their skin. After moulting, the bed bugs are usually white in colour. Thereafter, they can be burnt orange or tan in colour. However, after feeding, they appear black or dark red in colour.

Their flat, lentil-shaped bodies make it possible for bed bugs to hide in small crevices. Among the places you can find bed bugs include:

  • The plates of electrical sockets
  • Skirting boards
  • Beds
  • Sofas
  • Drawers

This is where they hide during the day. Evidently, these places are not far from where they can find their human hosts.

You may not know there are bed bugs in your home because, in addition to being experts at hiding, they are able to suck blood without causing you to lose sleep.

Feeding Habits
