All About Bed Bugs in Melbourne

Bed Bugs Control in Melbourne

Bed bugs are commonly associated with cheap motels and unclean rooms, but can unfortunately  also strike in areas where they are not often expected. Bed bugs are small, brown, and have oval shaped bodies. This brown colour tends to turn to a more reddish one after they consume blood. They are nocturnal creatures who engage in most of their activities at night; including their version of feasting.


As bed bugs tend to live of the blood of humans and animals, they prefer to undertake their ritual when all are asleep, and prefer to rest and digest during the day. If you suspect that you might have bed bugs on your property, it might be wise to seek some bed bug control in Melbourne.

Bed bugs received their name as they seem to prefer to cosy confines of bedding and mattresses to hide in. The major reason for this location preference is that it provides them easy access to their ideal sources of food. Bed bugs have great senses. They actually track down their host by sensing body heat and carbon dioxide in expired air, which they are most attracted to.

If you have concerns about bed bugs, the best way to conduct a self-check for whether they around your property is to inspect your sheets for blood stains and blotches. Sometimes you will also find tiny spots on your bed that are actually from the bed bugs digesting blood and excreting it onto the sheets.
