With the holiday season now in our rearview, and the friends and family that visited us to share meals together have returned home, we can all let out a sigh of relief. After all, the holiday season can be a stressful one, even if a lot of joy is spread. Leftover meals keep our refrigerators stocked up for days to come, and now that our loved ones have returned to their own homes, a lot of the holiday stress is relieved. However, it may not be in your best interest to relax just yet. With all the people that have traveled back and forth between New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Eastern Shore of Maryland homes, bed bug infestations are a higher risk.
Bed bugs are often carried from home to home during the holiday season, crawling off of clothing, luggage, and bags at each new stop. With family and friends traveling around during the holiday season, the possibility of someone bringing bed bugs into your home is actually quite high. If one or more of your loved ones have a bed bug infestation back home, they may have brought them into your home to start an entirely new infestation from just a few little bed bugs.
Bed bugs are about the size of an apple seed, which can make them hard to spot—and their eggs are even smaller! This means that bed bugs and their eggs can easily go unnoticed until your home has an extensive infestation.
When it comes to bed bug control, it is never a good idea to handle them on your own. They resist many DIY chemical treatments, and their fast reproduction cycle means that you could have more bed bugs in your home than you ever imagined. Complete eradication of bed bugs calls for the professional help of Viking's Pest Control experts.
