Bed Bug Services in Pinellas County, FL

If you live in Pinellas County, you live in one of the most densely populated counties in America. In Florida, Pinellas County is the most densely populated region of the state. This means that we are surrounded by friends and activities everywhere we look, and we have many great things to do all around us. That is a big reason so many people love to spend their time living here – it is a great community overall.

However, one of the downsides of that density in Pinellas County is the presence of bed bugs. Bed bugs thrive on dense populations and people living tightly together. It makes it easier for them to move between properties and thus invade more spaces on a regular basis. With that in mind, it makes sense why bed bugs can feel like a more common problem in Pinellas County than elsewhere.

Bed bugs are a serious issue for many reasons, not least the fact they can make you feel like you cannot get a proper sleep at night. At BBE, we offer a service to make sure you can get rid of this problem with ease. Bed bugs might be a problem that you find hard to avoid, but they are by no means something you have to worry about – not with our team on hand to help you get rid of the problem once and for all.

At BBE, we offer a bed bug extermination service in Pinellas County that gets the job done. By using modern heat treatment solutions, we make sure that bed bugs have nowhere to run and nowhere to hide. We give them everything that we have to ensure they are wiped out without the chance of a return for a minimum of 60 days. Contact BBE today to discuss your need for a bed bug service in Pinellas County.

The sooner we start on your problem, the quicker we can ensure that you can enjoy a life free from the draining problem of bed bugs.

Bed Bug Heat Treatments in Pinellas County

The primary form of treatment we use for bed bugs is heat treatment. This is powered by Heat Assault, the most powerful heat treatment for bed bugs in Pinellas County. Thanks to its consistent power, this treatment is proven to get the job done. By being far more powerful than conventional electric heating systems, this heat treatment really forces bed bugs out of the property.

Since heat treatment raises the temperature as high as 200F, bed bugs cannot live in this environment. It is simply too warm, even for a species that thrives on heat and temperature. Bed bugs are overheated and die out no matter what stage of life they happen to be in. From the egg itself to nymphs to adults, this guarantees safe and stress-free removal of bed bugs, no matter how numerous.

That works extremely well for making sure that bed bugs can be wiped out and removed from your premises. Not only does this get rid of the big bugs, but it also ensures that no eggs are left over. Most other treatments suffer from a problem where bed bugs come back because the treatment only deals with adults. Given that around five eggs are laid per day per female bed bug, eggs are essential.

Removing the eggs means getting rid of any future hatchlings reappearing and starting the cycle anew. Unlike chemicals, heat treatment destroys the eggs waiting to hatch. This stops these persistent pest colonies from rebuilding their numbers, leaving you with confidence that the bed bugs are going to be gone for the foreseeable future.

Things To Know About Bed Bugs in Pinellas County

At BBE, we believe that it is important that you understand why bed bugs have to be dealt with. They are not just an annoyance; they pose a genuine threat to your quality of life and your reputation. Here, then, are some key things to know about bed bugs that might help you feel more understanding of the problem and why you should make their removal a priority:

How Do I Know I Have Bed Bugs in Pinellas County?

The first thing to look at is the fact that bed bugs can be easily spotted. Below, we will give you a brief rundown of what a bed bug looks like. First, though, you should know what the telltale signs of bed bugs are in your property. Generally, you want to look out for signs that include:

Bites are the most obvious sign of bed bugs, and they tend to appear in zig-zag lines
Blood stains will be left in the aftermath of biting, too, which will be near to the bite
Brown stains can also appear, too – this is liquid waste excreted from the bed bugs
Shells and molted skins can be found nearby, too; this is a sign of new hatchlings
A strong and musty odor that clings to the air and is caused by large numbers of bed bugs
Live bed bugs moving around your property – most commonly visible during the evening

If you spot these signs of bed bugs in Pinellas County, you are likely dealing with at least a minor infestation. The first thing that you need to do at this point is to have your property inspected for bed bugs. We can give you a clear idea of whether the problem is, in fact, bed bugs or another pest. If we find bed bugs in your property, we will arrange a heat treatment solution for you as soon as we can.

What Do Bed Bugs Look Like?

Bed bugs are horrible to look at, but they are not especially large. An adult bed bug will usually be around the size of a seed from a piece of fruit, like an apple. They tend to be brown and quite flat – though they fatten up when they feast on blood. Smaller bed bugs, nymphs, tend to be more transparent in their coloring and are even smaller again than the average bed bug.

In terms of size, they are by no means large – you don’t need to worry about them reaching the size of typical household insects like flies or spiders. They do, though, tend to be visible because bed bugs rarely move around in singular numbers. You are unlikely to spot one-bed bug at a time, but many.

What Makes Bed Bugs So Common in Pinellas County?

We mentioned earlier that Pinellas County is one of the densest counties in America and the densest in Florida. That density plays a role in bed bugs being so common here. Since they can easily move from one location to the next due to the density, they find it very easy to find their way into our buildings. They also often tend to carry themselves on our bodies and luggage, moving from A to B with ease.

The other main reason bed bugs can feel so common in Pinellas County is the climate. The humid, subtropical climate of Pinellas County is perfect for bed bugs. Ironically, though, we use their love of heat against them. By heating the building to a temperature far beyond what they can cope with, we ensure that bed bugs are wiped out effectively before they realize it.

How Can Bed Bugs Enter My Property?

Bed bugs usually find their way in either on people or through gaps in the building. The most common form of transit for bed bugs, though, is arriving on luggage and shipments. This is especially true of Florida, where shipments from South America and Asia have a nasty habit of storing bed bugs of the tropical kind. These rapidly breeding, heat-loving bed bugs are among the most common in the state.

Are Bed Bugs Dangerous?

While a bed bug is not likely to make you ill through infection or spreading illness, they do make you tired. Being constantly bitten drains your body of blood, leaving you feeling lethargic and pale. The bites also tend to wake us up as we sleep, meaning we regularly wake up during the evening feeling the impact of the bite marks. This means we feel more tired and drained during the day than we would normally.

Does Heat Treatment Get Rid of Bed Bugs for Good?

The first thing to note is that heat treatment is not a permanent solution. Sadly, the prevalence of bed bugs in Pinellas County means that a new colony can arrive shortly after one has been destroyed. No form of treatment, though, offers permanent prevention of bed bugs from returning. While residual chemicals can leave some kind of barrier to a return for bed bugs, heat treatment does not.

However, heat treatment is more effective in that it wipes out the current colony entirely. Other treatments do not, meaning that returning bed bugs are more likely due to the hatchlings emerging after chemicals have worn off. However, we can recommend useful prevention measures to limit the risk of bed bugs returning. Alongside heat treatment, this ensures full removal and then added peace of mind overall.

Why Should I Avoid Chemical Treatment for Pinellas County Bed Bugs?

You should avoid using chemical treatment because it has more risks than solutions. Yes, chemicals can kill off adult bed bugs in your property. However, this means littering your home with residual chemicals that could become dangerous for our children and our pets in particular. On top of that, chemical treatments need to be used multiple times to get the desired results. That costs you more money overall.

At the same time, chemicals do not kill certain kinds of bed bugs—and they do not kill their eggs. This means that the infestation can spring up almost as soon as it is defeated. Chemical treatments come with more risks than heat treatments and offer no guarantees of long-term prevention. Given the potential risks of chemical treatment, we recommend that it be avoided in favor of using heat.

Do I Need to Get Rid of Furniture Impacted by Bed Bugs?

No, you do not have to remove any of your furniture that bed bugs have impacted. Yes, the furniture has to be cleaned, often using steam cleaning or similar high-quality cleaning methods. However, once heat treatment has been applied and the bed bugs have been killed in their entirety, there is no reason to think that furniture has to be thrown out or removed.
