Bed bugs are notoriously difficult to spot, but there are several signs that may indicate their presence in your home or business. These include:
If you notice any of these signs, it’s important to contact a professional bed bug control service immediately to prevent the infestation from spreading.
At Rentokil, we use a range of insecticidal treatments to effectively target and minimise bed bugs in all stages of their lifecycle.
We also apply specialised insecticidal sprays that target bed bugs in their hiding spots, such as mattresses, bed frames, and furniture. These sprays are safe for use in homes and businesses, providing long-term protection.
For hard-to-reach areas, insecticidal dust is used to penetrate deep into cracks and crevices where bed bugs often hide. This dust continues to work over time, helping manage any remaining bed bugs.
While professional treatments are the most effective way to deal with bed bugs, there are several steps you can take to prevent infestations:
Regular inspections: Regularly check your mattress, bed frames, and furniture for any signs of bed bugs.
Clean bedding frequently: Washing and drying your bedding on high heat can help kill any bed bugs or eggs that may be present.
Seal cracks and crevices: Prevent bed bugs from hiding by sealing any gaps around windows, doors, and baseboards.
Careful travel practices: Bed bugs are often brought home from hotels or other travel destinations. Inspect your luggage and clothing after travelling to avoid introducing bed bugs to your home.

While it’s possible to sleep in a bed with bed bugs, it’s not recommended. Bed bugs are nocturnal feeders and may bite during the night, leading to discomfort and potential allergic reactions. Additionally, sleeping in an infested bed can cause the bed bugs to spread to other areas of your home. It’s advisable to consult with a pest control professional to address the infestation promptly.
The most effective treatment for bed bugs often involves a combination of methods:
It’s essential to consult with a pest control professional to determine the most suitable treatment for your specific situation.
Bed bugs do not bite every night. Each bed bug feeds approximately every 3 to 7 days. However, if you notice bites consistently, it may indicate a significant infestation. It's crucial to address the problem promptly to prevent further issues.
