Why Bed Bugs Are Such Persistent Pests
You might be wondering why bed bugs are so hard to shift. Unlike many other pests, they don't respond well to off-the-shelf DIY sprays, and they breed quickly, making the problem escalate rapidly. Bed bugs, or Cimex lectularius, are incredibly resilient. They hide in the tiniest cracks and crevices – bed frames, mattresses, skirting boards, even electrical sockets – and can survive for months without a blood meal. This makes locating and eliminating every single one, from egg to adult, a significant challenge that requires specialist knowledge, professional-grade insecticides, and a methodical approach.

Spot the Signs: Do You Have a Bed Bug Infestation?
Even if you haven't seen an actual bed bug, their presence usually leaves clear clues. Keep an eye out for these tell-tale signs:
- Itchy Bites: Often appearing in lines or clusters on exposed skin, these red, itchy welts are usually the first indication.
- Blood Spots: Small, rust-coloured stains on your sheets, mattress, or bed frame, caused by crushed bed bugs or their feeding.
- Faecal Spots: Tiny, dark spots (like ink dots) on mattresses, bedding, or walls, which are bed bug droppings.
- Shed Skins: As bed bugs grow, they moult, leaving behind translucent exoskeletons.
- Musty Odour: A sweet, musty smell, particularly strong in heavily infested areas.
- Live Bed Bugs: Small (around 4-5mm), flat, oval, reddish-brown insects, often found hiding in seams of mattresses or bed frames.
If you suspect you have bed bugs in your Stratton home, don't delay – early intervention is key to preventing the problem from spreading.
