Frequently asked questions about bed bugs

What do bed bugs look like?

Bed bugs are small, flat, oval-shaped insects that are reddish-brown in colour. Adults are about the size of an apple seed, while younger bed bugs (nymphs) are smaller and lighter in colour. Eggs are tiny, white, and often found in hidden cracks or seams.

How do I know if I have bed bugs?

Common signs include itchy bite marks (often in lines or clusters), small blood spots on bedding, dark faecal marks on mattresses or furniture, and sightings of live bugs in mattress seams, bed frames, or skirting boards.

How do bed bugs get into a property?

Bed bugs are usually brought in through luggage after travel, second-hand furniture, clothing, or guests. They can also spread between adjoining properties in flats, hotels, and shared accommodation.

Can I get rid of bed bugs myself?

DIY treatments rarely eliminate a full infestation because bed bugs hide in very small cracks and can survive for long periods without feeding. Professional treatment is usually required to fully remove all life stages, including eggs.

How long does bed bug treatment take to work?

Most infestations require more than one visit. You may notice a reduction in activity quickly, but full eradication typically takes a few weeks depending on the severity and spread of the infestation.
