Signs of Bedbugs in Brooklyn, New York

March 9, 2018 by Danny

Here are 4 signs of bedbugs to be aware of to avoid an infestation.

Brooklyn Pest Control Van

Bedbugs have been a serious pest issue in Brooklyn for many years.

If you live here, it is either you have ever come across these bugs or have heard about them from a close person.

This means that every resident should appreciate the fact that these pests can invade or try to enter their homes or businesses anytime.

Your safety against the pests depends on your familiarity with them as well as whether you have put the relevant preventive procedures into place.

Here, we are going to educate you on several common bed bugs signs you have to know so as to spot them as soon as possible whenever they try to encroach your Brooklyn residence or business.

The common bedbug signs include:

Signs of Bedbugs – Small bugs hiding in your bedroom

Bedbugs owe their name to the fact that they tend to live in bedrooms where they can conveniently feed on your blood before retreating to their hideouts which are usually very close to you, perhaps under your mattress or pillow, in the joints of your bed, along the headboard, in spring box or nearby electronic devices like radio, watch or tv, among others.  

Some people confuse a bedbug with a tick or small cockroach. However, a bedbug is different from both of them.

An adult bedbug wingless, and oval-shaped when it hasn’t fed recently but the shape of its body changes to look like that of a balloon while the colour turns reddish brown if it has had a blood meal recently. creamish, translucent bugs in the hidden areas of your bedroom could also be bedbugs, but at nymph stage.

Other than the colour and of course smaller bodies, young bedbugs look like their adult counterparts and can suck blood from a host (animal or human being).

Signs of Bedbugs – Small bumps on your skin in the morning

Bedbugs suck your blood while you are asleep but interestingly, their bites are painless since their saliva has a numbing chemical substance.

These pests are usually interested in the exposed skin areas such as the face, arms, legs and neck and that’s why the inflammations related to their bites are mostly found in these areas.

If you have a sensitive body, the bites will make the affected skin areas to swell or even become itchy, minutes, hours or days later.

If you wake up in the morning and find red and itchy inflammations on your skin, that could be a telltale sign of bedbug presence at the place where you slept.

Nevertheless, one or even two red welts are not necessarily as a result of bedbug bites but rather bites by other insects such as mosquitoes.

Bedbug bites are usually somehow uniform and form linear clusters of three to five bites.

Signs of Bedbugs – Blood stained sheets

Once you notice the bites mentioned above on your skin, the next thing you should check is your bed sheets to see if they have bloody stains which are usually the bedbug calling cards.

The stains could be as a result of your slightly bleeding skin after a bedbug bite.

It could also be that you accidentally crushed some bedbugs while you were rolling in your bed at night and they discharged the blood that they had just fed on, hence staining your sheets.  

Signs of Bedbugs – A sudden unpleasant odor

Bedbugs release alarm pheromones through the glands on their lower parts of their bodies.

The smell cannot be easily sensed where there just a few bedbug but very intense in case of a heavy infestation.

The smell is likened to the aroma of coriander by some people while others say that it is like that of wet, moldy clothes or shoes.

Those are some of the most prominent bedbug signs that you ought to watch out in your Brooklyn home or office.

We are, however, proven to eradicate these insects with much success. Our past clients have rated us as the most reliable exterminator NYC due to our success in eliminating the resistant insects.

“Cluster fly infestation is common during the cold periods of the year. When the temperatures become colder in winter, these insects try to access the houses for warmth.”

Cluster Flies Brooklyn: What Are They?

A cluster fly is also known as an attic fly. It resembles the house fly in appearance, but a cluster fly is slightly bigger and darker. An adult cluster fly has a length of about 8mm. It has hairs on the thorax. These pests are live outside during the summer. Cluster fly infestation is common during the cold periods of the year.

When the temperatures become colder in winter, these insects try to access the houses for warmth. It is common to observe cluster flies buzzing around the windows during winter. These insects will always find a way of entering the homes. They are capable of passing through the smallest crevices and gaps.

“One of the major problems encountered in cluster fly control is that these pests manage to creep even through windows that are pest proof.”

Effects of Cluster Flies

These insects are harmless to human beings. They are however considered as pests because they are usually a nuisance when they invade houses. During winter, swarms of flies invade homes migrate to house roofs where there is warmth.

They buzz around the ceiling and window before ultimately penetrating into the house. One of the major problems encountered in cluster fly control is that these pests manage to creep even through windows that are pest proof.

“When these flies are sprayed, they usually die in masses. After some time, they develop a foul smell that attracts other kinds of pests such as rodents, cockroaches, and houseflies.”

How to Remove Cluster Flies from My House

Many people wonder how to get rid of cluster flies. Many people opt for using insecticides. Brooklyn County Pest Control discourages the use of pesticides in control. When these flies are sprayed, they usually die in masses. After some time, they develop a foul smell that attracts other kinds of pests such as rodents, cockroaches, and houseflies.

After some time, the flies like any other insects may develop a resistance against the pesticides. We, therefore, avoid using pesticides if possible. Instead, we advocate for the use of pest proofing control methods.

“In place of using these lights, you are advised to use halogen yellow or sodium light bulbs to light your outdoor area. Unlike bright fluorescent lamps, the latter don’t attract the pests.”

Cluster Flies Brooklyn: Pest Proofing and Sodium Light Bulb

This is a technique that aims at preventing cluster flies infestation through use of barriers. They pests are blocked from entering the house. This method is eco-friendly as it doesn’t involve the use of chemical pesticides. Brooklyn County pest control fills in the cracks and gaps in the house which act as possible cluster flies entry points.

We also advise our clients to avoid the use of the bright fluorescent bulbs. Cluster flies are attracted to bright light. In place of using these lights, you are advised to use halogen yellow or sodium light bulbs to light your outdoor area. Unlike bright fluorescent lamps, the latter don’t attract the pests. These cluster fly control measures have been found to be very effective.

Signs of Termites: How to Easily Identify Termites in Your House

Termites are one of the most common pests that can infest your home. They live in colonies, and can cleanly eat through different kinds of wood. Termites can cause structural damage that can end up costing you thousands of dollars for repairs. It is important to consciously look out for a termite infestation because these pests can go undetected for years altogether. So, how do you easily identify termite signs on your property?

Having termites in your home can lead to all kinds of maintenance issues and hygiene problems not to mention the added stress and tension of worrying about these problems!

The most common type of termite is the dry wood termite, and it can damage the floor, the walls, and the ceiling.  It is important to look out for signs of termites, as then immediate action can be taken to control the infestation. Termites can cause serious structural and non-structural damage.

Signs of Termites Infestation

  • Creaking floorboards

If your floorboard creaks when you walk over it, chances are that termites are quietly munching away under it.

  • Tiny holes in the wall

Termites end up making tiny, pinpoint-sized holes in the walls they infest.

  • Termite mud tubes

If you see termite mud tubes on your furniture or walls, an infestation is confirmed.

  • Jammed doors and windows

Because of the extra moisture that termites produce while eating wood, the doors and windows infested by them can often become hard to open (because the wood swells up).

“Termites can cause structural damage that can end up costing you thousands of dollars for repairs. It is important to consciously look out for a termite infestation because these pests can go undetected for years altogether.”

  • Bubbling or peeling paint

If you see random areas of paint on your wall bubbling or peeling off, chances are that termites have infested it.

  • Hollow sounding wood

Termite-infested wood sounds hollow and empty when tapped on. Keep tapping on walls, floors, and furniture regularly to check for termite infestations.

  • Discarded wings

A particular type of termite often leaves behind fish-scale-like wings near the areas it infests.

  • Termite munching sounds

If you listen closely, termites make a clicking sound when they munch on wood. Keep an ear out for this to confirm an infestation.

“Termites, if left untreated, can destroy large parts of the house. Not only will this cost you a lot of repairs, it will create hygiene issues and will also reduce the property value of your house.”

  • Damaged wood

If you see bits and pieces of your furniture crumbling away, you can be sure that it is because of a termite infestation.

  • Termite droppings

Look out for black-colored, powdery droppings of termites. These will commonly be found near the infested areas.

If you see any of the signs mentioned above, you need to act fast to get the termite situation under control.  Termites, if left untreated, can destroy large parts of the house. Not only will this cost you a lot of repairs, it will create hygiene issues and will also reduce the property value of your house.

Controlling a Bed Bug Problem

If you have a problem with bed bugs, you may not even realize it. In some cases, the person who is experiencing a problem doesn’t show any symptoms or signs of a problem. This means the problem could be developing right under your nose, or rather, right up under your body.

The sign of a bed bug problem is often a rash on the person’s body upon awakening. If they don’t show any signs, the problem will persist. The longer the problem is there, the more difficult the problem will become.

Our Brooklyn bed bug exterminator services are used to treat and identify bed bugs so that we can get the problem under control. The best way to control a bed bug problem is to get the help you need as quickly as possible.

This might not always be easy when you aren’t showing any signs of a problem. In some cases, you may have to put forth some effort to find the problem. This would require you to flip over your mattress to see if the bed bugs have left any blood stains behind. The blood stains are a dead giveaway.
