Bed bugs are small, brownish, and oval insects that feed on the blood of humans and animals.
They are often confused with other pests, but knowing their distinctive characteristics can help you spot them sooner.
Adult bed bugs are about the size of an apple seed (4-5 mm long).
They range from light brown to reddish-brown, depending on when they last fed.
Flat and oval when unfed, becoming swollen after a blood meal.
Bed bugs don’t have wings, so they can’t fly, but they crawl quickly.
They often hide in seams of mattresses, cracks in furniture, baseboards, and even electronics. Additional tell tale signs may include tiny reddish stains on bedding, discarded bed bug shells, or a musty odor in particular areas.

How Do You Know If You Are Battling Bed Bugs?
Bed bugs are tiny, blood-sucking insects that can cause significant trouble for homeowners and property owners. These pests are not only a nuisance but are also notoriously difficult to detect due to their small size and ability to hide in cracks, crevices, and furniture. Once they infest a home, getting rid of them can become a challenging and time-consuming process.
Behavior and Bites
Bed bugs are nocturnal creatures, often feeding on human blood during the night, leaving itchy, red bite marks as a telltale sign of their presence.
Warning Signs
If you suspect that you may have bed bugs, watch out for other signs such as small, rust colored stains on bedding, shed skins, and a musty odor around heavily infested areas.
Importance of Early Detection
Early detection is crucial to preventing a major infestation, and our team is here to help. If you notice any of these warning signs, it’s important to contact us right away.

Why Professional Bed Bug Identification Matters
DIY methods for identifying bed bugs often prove unreliable and time-consuming, which is why turning to a professional team is a smarter choice for thorough identification. Accurate detection is essential, as many pests resemble bed bugs, leading to frequent misidentifications.
Our expert pest control team combines advanced tools with specialized training to accurately identify whether you’re dealing with a bed bug problem or another type of pest. Professional inspections are far more thorough, as bed bugs are notoriously elusive and often hide in cracks, behind wallpaper, or even inside electrical outlets. We know exactly where to look, ensuring no area is overlooked.
Professional identification saves both time and money by preventing unnecessary DIY treatments that may fail to resolve the issue. Early and accurate detection ensures the infestation is addressed correctly from the start, avoiding wasted effort and expenses.
Expert identification helps prevent the spread of bed bugs to other areas of your home, enabling targeted treatments that contain the problem and protect the rest of your property. With our professional bed bug services, you gain peace of mind knowing the issue is properly diagnosed and handled.

What Our Clients Say
Signs of a Bed Bug Infestation
Early detection of bed bugs is essential for minimizing their spread and the damage they cause. Common signs of an infestation include:
Bites on Skin
Bed bugs feed at night, leaving behind clusters of red, itchy bites, often in straight lines or zig zag patterns.
Stains on Sheets
Small rust colored stains on sheets or mattresses may be indicative of crushed bed bugs or their fecal matter.
Shed Skin or Egg Shells
Bed bugs shed their skins as they grow. Finding these along with tiny, pale white eggs is a telltale sign of their activity.
Live Bed Bugs
Spotting live bed bugs, especially in hidden areas like mattress seams, headboards, or crevices, confirms an infestation.
If these signs sound familiar, it’s time to give our professionals a call. We will conduct an inspection and develop a treatment plan tailored to your specific situation. Our services include both chemical and nonchemical treatments, as well as monitoring and prevention methods to ensure complete eradication of bed bugs.
Take the Next Steps
Treatment and Prevention
Once bed bugs are identified, swift action is crucial to eliminate them completely. The first step is to schedule a professional inspection, where our Oklahoma City Pest Control team will assess the extent of the infestation and create a personalized treatment plan. We use advanced treatments and safe, eco friendly products tailored to your home or business to effectively address the problem.
Our experts also provide preventative recommendations that may include sealing cracks, reducing clutter, and maintaining hygiene to keep bed bugs from returning. Since bed bugs can reappear if not fully eradicated, ongoing monitoring through regular inspections and proactive measures ensures long-term results. Learn more about us!
