Initial Signs of Bed Bugs
Generally, bed bugs get into your home from another place that is infested. For instance, you can bring them in on a purse that you might have set down in an area that had bed bugs. The first sign of a bed bug infestation might be itchy bites on your skin. You will develop cluster bites instead of a few bites here and there. Other signs include:
Blood spots on the mattress and sheets
Small yellow eggs or eggshells
Shed skin
A musty odour around your bed
Bedbug droppings
Actual bed bugs

Fundamentals of Bed Bug Control
If you suspect bed bugs at home, take the following steps immediately:
Do not take anything away until the bugs have been identified.
Have the area and all other places nearby inspected thoroughly.
All clothing or linens to be cleaned need to be sealed in plastic bags and taken immediately to the laundry area. (Typical laundering and tumble drying on hot will kill bed bugs).
Empty all closets, wardrobes, and drawers and place contents in sealed plastic bags if free of bed bugs.
Vacuum thoroughly, especially along baseboards, carpet edges, shelves, mattress seams, bed frames, and headboards. (Dispose of the vacuum bag, and clean out the canister)
Call expert technicians for help.
For best results, you should contact a professional bed bug control company in Winnipeg. Reach out to 1st Choice Pest Services for inspection and treatment.
What Needs to Be Prepared for Professional Bed Bug Control Service
When you are planning to hire a professional for bed bug control in Winnipeg, there are a few things you should do to prepare:
Identify the source of the bed bugs: Look for bed bugs in the seams of your mattress, under your bed and other furniture, and in any cracks or crevices in your walls or floor. This will help the professional determine the extent of the infestation and where to focus their treatment efforts.
Remove clutter: Remove any clutter from your home, especially from the areas where bed bugs have been found. This will give the professional more room to work and make it simpler for them to access all areas of your home.
Move furniture away from walls: Move beds, sofas, and other furniture away from the walls to give the professional more access to these areas.
