Bed Bug Update Top Ten Places Bed Bugs Hide

Monday, 27th June 2011

One of the most important parts of bed bug control is finding out where they hide. Bed bugs are adaptive, and can live for several months hiding out without food, so unless you can locate where they root, it is hard to remove the entire colony. Here, in no particular order, are the top ten places bed bugs like to hide in your home:

1.Underneath beds. 2.In the cracks in headboards. 3.Within an unused pile of clothes. 4.Inside of holes in your mattress. 5.In nearby drawers or cabinets. 6.Between cracks and crevices in your wall. 7.Underneath or within piles of paper. 8.Inside of picture frames. 9.Near window frames or door frames. 10.Between mattress seams.

Contrary to popular belief, bed bugs do not actually live in beds, which is why bed bug control can be a tough process. Bed bug control requires the ability to reach each individual hiding spot, and remove them before the females can lay more eggs.
