How to check for bed bugs in Atlanta, GA
It’s no surprise that Atlanta ranks in the top five for bed bug-infested cities. Bed bugs are professional hitchhikers – and an international travel hub like Atlanta, GA, is the perfect place for them to catch a ride. When dealing with the persistent problem of bed bugs, taking proactive steps for early detection and bed bug treatment is crucial. Terminix technicians are the experts in bed bug control in Atlanta, GA, but here are six places you should check for bed bugs.
Beds and headboards
When checking beds and headboards for bed bugs, it's important to be as thorough as a bed bug exterminator. Start by peeling back the linens and closely inspecting the mattress. Focus on the seams, tags, tufts, and edges, as bed bugs, along with their eggs and fecal spots, often hide there. Don't forget to check the box spring and bed frame, especially if it's made of wood. The area around and behind the headboard requires careful inspection too. Check for any cracks, crevices, and seams where bed bugs could be hiding.
Bedding and linens
Start by removing all linens, including sheets, pillowcases, and blankets, from the bed. Use a bright flashlight to thoroughly inspect each item, paying close attention to seams, hems, and folds. Look for small, reddish-brown bugs, tiny white eggs, and black fecal spots. Make sure to check any decorative blankets, pillows, and curtains.
Bedroom furniture
When checking for places that may need bed bug treatments, be sure to check your bedroom furniture. Start with furniture closest to sleeping areas, such as end tables and dressers, as well as any items on or inside of the furniture. Upholstered furniture can also be an ideal hiding spot for bed bugs. Pay close attention to seams, folds, skirts, and crevices in couches and chairs in the room. If you notice any signs of bed bugs in your bedroom furniture – call your local Terminix branch for pest control in Atlanta, GA.
Wall decor and electrical outlets
Don’t forget to check your wall decor for signs of bed bugs. Bed bugs can hide behind picture frames, posters, and even in electrical outlets. Gently remove these items and use your flashlight to look for signs of bed bugs. Thoroughly inspect the back of each item, focusing on corners, edges, and any crevices where bed bugs could potentially hide. For electrical outlets, use caution to remove the outlet cover and look inside for bed bugs.
Luggage
Hotels and airports are some of the most common places where bed bugs can be found. After a trip, it’s important to inspect your luggage for any signs of bed bugs before bringing it into your home. Start by closely examining all seams, zippers, and pockets where bed bugs like to hide. Make sure to empty your luggage completely and inspect every item inside. If you think bed bugs have found their way into your home, Terminix can provide pest control services in Atlanta, GA.
