Bed Bugs: A Persistent Pest Problem
Bed bugs (Cimex lectularius) are small, nocturnal insects that feed on human blood. They are masters of hiding, typically found in cracks and crevices close to where people sleep or rest. This includes bed frames, mattresses, skirting boards, behind peeling wallpaper, and even within electrical sockets. Their flat bodies allow them to squeeze into incredibly tight spaces, making them difficult to spot and even harder to eradicate without professional help. A bed bug problem often starts small but can quickly escalate into a widespread infestation if not dealt with swiftly and effectively. Their bites, while not usually dangerous, are itchy and can lead to secondary skin infections from scratching.

How to Identify a Bed Bug Problem in Your Home
Think you might have bed bugs? Knowing what to look for is the first step towards getting rid of them. Keep an eye out for these common signs:
- Itchy Bites: Often appearing in lines or clusters on exposed skin, typically on arms, legs, or neck.
- Small Blood Spots: Tiny spots of blood on your sheets or mattress, left behind after a bed bug has fed.
- Dark Spots or Faecal Stains: Black or brown spots, about the size of a felt-tip pen dot, on your mattress, bed frame, or nearby furniture. These are bed bug droppings.
- Live Bed Bugs: Though elusive, you might spot adult bed bugs. They are oval-shaped, flat, and reddish-brown, about the size of an apple pip. Nymphs (young bed bugs) are smaller and lighter in colour.
- Moulting Skins: As bed bugs grow, they shed their exoskeletons. You may find these translucent, empty shells near their hiding spots.
- Musty Odour: In severe infestations, a distinct, sweet, musty smell might be noticeable.
