The Bed Bug species most commonly identified in the U.K. is the Cimex lectularius. These small insects feed on blood from animals and humans, and are often found in bedding and furniture. Bed Bugs have five larval stages before they develop into adults. Their eggs are small and white, the nymphs a paler yellow colour, and the adults a reddish-brown. Bed Bugs can have up to three generations a year.
Bed Bugs bite, leaving red marks on skin which can become itchy. Signs of active infestations include small specs of blood, and very small black droplets found in bedding. Bed Bugs tend to congregate in high numbers and are most active at night. They can be located in houses, apartments, hotels and even aboard public transport. They are often transported via clothing and luggage.
Bed Bug Sticky Ringsshould be introduced to act as a barrier and detector against the pest. Simply stick the rings around the legs of your bed to stop Bed Bugs from climbing into your bed. The rings are easy to apply and to remove.
Bed Bug Traps should be deployed as soon as infestations are suspected. These traps can catch high numbers of Bed Bugs and provide ideal monitoring stations, enabling you to establish infestation levels. If you already have Bed Bug Sticky Rings active, you can place these traps away from the bed to catch any Bed Bugs that are hiding in cracks and crevices, or residing in bedside furniture and in-between wallpapers. By using the rings & the traps you are ensuring optimal protection. These products are now available in the Bed Bug Bundle at a reduced cost.
