Bed bugs love
to thrive in areas that are hot, so of course, Central Texas fits that
description pretty well. However, they are ways to prevent bed bugs from
entering the new home you just bought.
Bed bugs can
be identified by their color and shape. They are reddish-brown in color and are
flat and oval. The majority of the time, they hide close to the bed, but they
have been known to spread to other areas of the room. It is important to note
that some bugs found on beds are not bed bugs.
Bed bugs get
into your home a number of different ways.
The most common way is through moving or from traveling. You can easily
bring these critters into your home if you have been somewhere that had bed
bugs. This means that you can get them if your belongings were stored somewhere
that had beds bugs during your move. They bury inside your moving boxes and could
take up residence in your new Bryan College Station dream home.
To prevent these
pesky bed bugs from entering your home, inspect all your items before putting
them away. This is especially true with mattresses and furniture. Check the crevices, behind molding, as well
as other embellishments.
If you bring
in any used furniture into your home that you purchase after you move in, be
sure that you inspect it carefully for signs of the bugs or its fecal matter.
Also, if you go on vacation, be sure to inspect your accommodations before
bringing in your luggage. Many people forget to do this in the excitement and
the little hitchhikers make their way into your home.
You are
settling into your new home and the last thing you want is unwanted critters in
your bed. Following these few tips will ensure you and your new home stay bed
bug free!
