Santa Rosa Bed Bug Control
Bed Bug Treatment in Napa, Sonoma & Marin Counties
Bed bugs are small, wingless insects that feed on human blood. While they can be found in any part of a home or commercial building, they are most frequently found in beds, couches, and recliners. They are most active at night, and people are usually bitten when they are sleeping. Bed bugs have been found on every continent except Antarctica.
While bed bugs are not known to transmit any diseases, their bites are very itchy and can cause allergic reactions. They also leave small, round bite marks that are often mistaken for mosquito bites. Unfortunately, getting rid of bed bugs can be extremely difficult without professional extermination.

Bed Bug Control for Bay Area Residents
One of the most troublesome pests that a homeowner can encounter is the bed bug. Bed bugs are insects that feed on the blood of vertebrates and can be found almost everywhere humans are present.
Bed bugs get their name from the fact that they can usually be found around beds or other places people are sedentary for periods of time, like sofas and chairs. They are attracted to body heat, CO2 exhalation, and specific odors, making humans the perfect target for their meals and their homes the perfect bed bug habitat.
Bed bugs multiply quickly. Bringing a few home after traveling can result in an infestation of tens of thousands of bed bugs. Once you suspect you have bed bugs, it is important to contact a professional to eliminate the problem once and for all.

Signs of a Bed Bug Infestation
Bed bugs are very good at hiding and can go for months without feeding. Because of this, it can be hard to know if you have a bed bug problem. However, there are some common signs that indicate a bed bug infestation.
There are several ways to spot signs of bed bugs, but the most telling sign is experiencing bites. Every individual can have different reactions to bed bug bites, so it is best to consult a medical professional to determine what type of insect is affecting you.
Beyond bites, you might notice stains left behind from their feces along the seams of your mattress or small blood spot stains on your sheets. It is also possible you will see live bed bugs hiding in crevices and cracks or notice their skin casts from molting.
The most common signs of a bed bug infestation include:
- Red, itchy bites on your arms, legs, neck, and face
- Small, dark spots on your sheets or mattress from bed bug blood or feces
- A musty, sweet odor
- Live bed bugs or eggs
If you notice any of these signs, it's important to schedule professional bed bug control in Santa Rosa right away. The longer you wait, the more bed bugs will spread throughout your home or business.
Not only are homeowners at risk of bed bugs but commercial properties, like apartments and hotels, can also fall victim to infestations. Regardless of whether they are in your home or your business, bed bugs are a serious problem, one that requires professional pest control solutions.

How to Prevent a Bed Bug Infestation
Because bed bugs are so difficult to get rid of, it's important to prevent an infestation in the first place. If you currently have bed bugs, these tips can help you stop future infestations before they start.
Here are some tips for preventing bed bugs:
- Don't bring used furniture into your home
- Avoid secondhand furniture, especially mattresses and upholstered furniture
- Don't leave your home empty for long periods of time
- Don't leave bags or items in the back of your car
- When traveling, inspect the hotel room for bed bugs before bringing your belongings inside
Once bed bugs become established, they can be very difficult to eradicate. However, proven bed bug control techniques—such as integrated pest management (IPM)—are effective against even the most stubborn of bed bug infestations. At We Care Pest Solutions, we use IPM and other powerful methods for ridding your home or business of bed bugs, as well as preventing future problems.
Bed Bug Travel Tips
A lot of bed bug infestations start when someone inadvertently brings these creatures home on their clothing and other belongings after traveling. Bed bugs can transfer between homes, vehicles, or buildings, meaning you could stay somewhere with bed bugs and accidentally bring them home.
Here are some things you can do to protect yourself and your family while traveling:
- Place your luggage, briefcases, computer bags, etc. on non-upholstered furniture, away from the bed, such as the desk. If you’re using a luggage rack, inspect it prior to placing your items.
- Pull back the corners of the bedding on the bed to check the mattress and box spring for bed bugs. Pay special attention to seams, where bed bugs like to hide. Black marks on the mattress could be an indication of bed bugs.
- Inspect the nightstands and dressers for signs of bed bugs. Pay close attention to cracks and crevices, as these are the most common areas where bed bugs hide.
If you believe your room or sleeping area has bed bugs, let the front desk, rental agency, or property manager know and ask for a different room away from any connecting rooms.
