Professional Bed Bug Control for Central Virginia Homes
Eliminating bed bug infestations with heat treatments and comprehensive inspection services
Bed Bugs Are Extremely Difficult to Eliminate
Bed bugs are master hiders that feed exclusively on blood, making humans their preferred hosts. These resilient pests can survive months without feeding and hide in the smallest cracks and crevices during daylight hours. DIY treatments rarely eliminate entire populations because bed bugs have developed resistance to many over-the-counter pesticides. PestNow Central Virginia provides professional bed bug control using heat treatments and advanced detection methods that eliminate all life stages of bed bugs.
Why Professional Bed Bug Control Matters:
Complete elimination - targeting all bed bugs, eggs, and nymphs
Heat treatment expertise - lethal temperatures that kill resistant bed bugs
Detection technology - finding hidden infestations before they spread
Health protection - eliminating bites, allergic reactions, and sleep loss
Prevention strategies - stopping reinfestations and spread to other areas
Bed Bug Challenges in Central Virginia
Rapid Population Growth
Small infestations become major problems quickly
Female bed bugs lay 1-5 eggs daily, with infestations doubling every 16 days under ideal conditions. What starts as a few bed bugs brought home from travel can quickly become hundreds of biting pests throughout your bedroom and living areas.
Expert Hiding Abilities
Nearly impossible to find all hiding spots
Bed bugs hide in mattress seams, box springs, bed frames, furniture joints, electrical outlets, and even behind picture frames. They're flat enough to fit in spaces as thin as a credit card, making complete detection extremely challenging.
Pesticide Resistance
Immunity to common household insecticides
Modern bed bugs have developed resistance to many pyrethroid insecticides found in retail sprays. DIY treatments often scatter bed bugs to new hiding spots without eliminating the infestation, making professional treatment essential.
