Bed bugs (Cimex lectularius) are small, oval-shaped, reddish-brown insects that feed on the blood of humans and animals while they sleep. As nocturnal ectoparasites, bed bugs hide during the day and emerge at night to bite, often leaving behind itchy, red welts.
Adult bed bugs are about the size of an apple seed and lack wings, but they can crawl quickly across floors, furniture, walls, and ceilings. While they’re most commonly found in beds, bed bugs can infest mattresses, box springs, bed frames, couches, luggage, clothing, and even electrical outlets.
These pests are excellent hiders, squeezing into cracks, seams, and crevices where they’re hard to detect and remove without professional help. Bed bugs are known to infest:
What makes bed bugs especially difficult to control is their ability to survive for months without feeding and reproduce rapidly. Female bed bugs can lay hundreds of eggs, leading to large infestations in a short time.
To identify and eliminate bed bugs, early action is essential. At Jim’s Termite & Pest Control, we offer expert bed bug inspection, treatment, and prevention services using proven, eco-friendly methods. If you suspect bed bug activity, contact us today for fast, effective solutions that restore your comfort and peace of mind.
Getting rid of bed bugs can be difficult without professional help, as these pests hide in tiny crevices and reproduce quickly. The best method depends on the severity of the infestation, but here are the most effective bed bug removal techniques used today:
Targeted bed bug pesticide applications are one of the most reliable ways to eliminate infestations. At Jim’s Termite & Pest Control, we use APVMA-approved, pet-safe insecticides that are applied to known hiding spots like mattresses, furniture, and baseboards. These treatments are performed by trained technicians and are designed to kill bed bugs at all life stages.
Heat treatment is a highly effective, chemical-free option. This process raises the temperature in the affected room to levels that are lethal to bed bugs and their eggs (typically above 50°C). It requires specialist equipment and is performed by licensed pest professionals. Heat treatments are ideal for severe or widespread infestations.
Like heat, steam can be used to kill bed bugs and eggs on contact. Steam is especially effective on upholstered furniture, mattress seams, and other soft surfaces. While steam treatment can be useful, it’s typically used alongside other methods for best results.
Some people try DIY bed bug treatments like diatomaceous earth, baking soda, or essential oils. While these may help with very minor infestations, they are rarely effective on their own. Home remedies are not a substitute for professional bed bug pest control, especially once eggs and nymphs are present.
The most reliable way to remove bed bugs is to contact a licensed pest control provider. At Jim’s Termite & Pest Control, we offer comprehensive bed bug treatment plans that combine inspection, elimination, and prevention — all tailored to your property.

Bed bug bites typically appear as small, red, itchy welts, often found in clusters or straight lines on exposed skin like the arms, legs, neck, or back. Reactions can vary — some people experience intense itching and swelling, while others may not react at all.
Common signs of bed bug bites:
While bed bug bites are not known to transmit disease, the itching can lead to scratching, which may cause skin infections or irritation.
If symptoms worsen or you experience an allergic reaction, consult a medical professional.
If you're seeing bed bug bites, there’s a good chance you’re dealing with an infestation. Contact Jim’s Termite & Pest Control for a professional bed bug inspection and safe, effective removal. We’ll help you eliminate bed bugs and stop the bites — fast.
Detecting a bed bug infestation early is key to preventing a larger outbreak. At Jim’s Termite & Pest Control, we recommend looking out for these common signs of bed bugs in your home or business:
One of the first clues is often itchy, red welts on your skin. Bed bug bites usually appear in clusters or straight lines, typically on exposed areas like arms, neck, or legs. Keep in mind: not everyone reacts to bed bug bites, so their absence doesn’t mean you’re in the clear.
You may spot live adult bed bugs crawling in or around mattresses, box springs, bed frames, furniture, or baseboards. Adult bed bugs are flat, oval-shaped, and about 5–7mm long — roughly the size of an apple seed. Their colour ranges from reddish-brown to almost black, especially after feeding.
After feeding, bed bugs can leave behind tiny blood smears on sheets, pillowcases, or mattress covers — often from being crushed during sleep.
Bed bugs leave behind dark droppings that resemble small black or brown specks. These fecal stains are commonly found along mattress seams, on bed frames, or behind headboards.
As they grow, bed bugs shed their skins. Finding translucent, shell-like casings is a strong sign of ongoing infestation, especially near seams, cracks, or crevices.
In severe infestations, you may notice a sweet, musty smell — often compared to raspberries or coriander. This odour comes from bed bug scent glands and is more noticeable in closed or heavily infested areas.
If you notice any of these signs, don’t wait. A professional bed bug inspection from Jim’s can confirm the infestation and provide a targeted treatment plan. Our team uses advanced techniques to detect, treat, and prevent bed bugs — keeping your home or business safe and pest-free.
Preventing bed bugs from infesting your bed starts with proactive habits and regular inspections. At Jim’s Termite & Pest Control, we recommend the following expert tips to reduce your risk and keep your sleeping space bed bug-free:
Install high-quality, bed bug-proof encasements on your mattress and box spring. These tightly woven covers act as a barrier, preventing bed bugs from getting in or out and making it easier to spot signs of activity.
Check your sheets, pillowcases, and blankets for blood spots, fecal stains, or shed bed bug skins. Wash all bedding in hot water (at least 60°C) and dry on high heat to kill any hidden pests or eggs.
Clutter gives bed bugs more places to hide. Keep your bedroom tidy and free from piles of clothes, paper, or items under the bed. The fewer hiding spots, the lower your risk of infestation.
Vacuum your mattress seams, bed frame, and surrounding floor areas at least once a week. Focus on cracks, crevices, and carpet edges where bed bugs may nest. After vacuuming, dispose of the contents in a sealed plastic bag and remove it from the house.
Inspect hotel beds, headboards, and furniture for signs of bed bugs. Keep luggage elevated and away from the bed. On return, wash clothes in hot water and inspect your suitcase thoroughly.
Avoid bringing used mattresses or upholstered furniture into your home unless it’s been professionally inspected or treated. Secondhand items are a common source of bed bug infestations.
Inspect and seal cracks around baseboards, wall outlets, and bed frames. Reducing access points helps prevent bed bugs from spreading between rooms or units in multi-family buildings.
While these bed bug prevention tips can reduce your risk, infestations can still occur. If you suspect bed bug activity, contact Jim’s Termite & Pest Control for a professional bed bug inspection and treatment plan. We offer safe, effective, and affordable solutions to help you sleep easy again.
Effective bed bug treatment requires a targeted approach using a combination of methods — and while bed bug sprays can help, they’re rarely enough on their own to eliminate an infestation.
At Jim’s Termite & Pest Control, we offer professional bed bug treatment services that are safe, effective, and tailored to your home or business. Here's how we treat bed bugs:
We use approved residual insecticides specifically designed to kill bed bugs and their eggs. These bed bug sprays are applied to high-risk areas such as mattresses, bed frames, furniture, cracks, and crevices. Unlike over-the-counter products, our solutions are long-lasting, pet-safe, and professionally applied for maximum effectiveness.
In cases of severe infestation, we may recommend thermal remediation. This involves raising the temperature of the affected area above 50°C — the point at which bed bugs and their eggs are destroyed. Steam can also be applied to upholstered items, seams, and corners.
Our technicians combine sprays, heat, monitoring traps, and physical removal (e.g. vacuuming) to create a customised bed bug treatment plan. This ensures the infestation is addressed thoroughly and that future outbreaks are prevented.
