Bed Bug Control
Bed bugs are insects that suck on the blood of their hosts and their food of preference is a human being!! If they can’t find people, then they will feed on pets. An adult bed bug is red/brown in color and they grow to be about one quarter of an inch long. Their body shape is flat and oval and they have 6 legs. When they are done sucking on blood, the body will swell and become shaped like a pill. After feeding, their bodies swell and elongate into a pill-like form. A nymph looks like a lot like an adult but is small and white/yellow in color or transparent until they beginning feeding.
