Bed bugs and you

Bed bugs are tiny pests that live by nurturing on human blood, typically at night. They are cagey, hiding in cracks and crevices during day light, and coming out when the lights are out to feed. Because of their size and painless bite, bed bugs may go unnoticed for some time. Tell tail signs that you have bed bugs are itchy welts and tiny dark spots and stains on your mattress and box spring, oh and there may be a sweetish smell coming from the bed. They don’t carry any diseases but can cause irritation or allergic reactions, they are a source of stress and concern for most people. If your bed has signs of bed bugs, an economical alternative to discarding your mattress and box spring is to buy good quality, bug-proof mattress encasement.  Encasements are sacks that fit over a mattress or box spring. The bed bug-proof encasements are designed to be tight enough to prevent even the smallest life stages of the bed bugs from escaping. A good encasement will trap all bed bugs and stop them from biting through the encasement, and are smooth on the outside, providing few places for bed bugs to hide.
