Pest ID Guide

Bed Bugs

Small, flat, and hard to spot until they've settled in. Catching them early makes treatment much easier.

Identification

Small, flat, reddish-brown, roughly the size of an apple seed. They don't fly or jump, and travel by hitchhiking on luggage, furniture, and clothing.

Habitat

Mattress seams, box springs, headboards, and nearby furniture, close to where people sleep.

Why They're A Risk

Bites cause discomfort and disrupted sleep, and populations grow quickly once established in a bedroom.

Signs To Watch For

Bites in a line on skin uncovered overnight, rust-colored stains on sheets, and shed skins along the mattress seams.
