While bed bugs might not be the most dangerous pest to have in your home, they can be damaging to your well-being. At BBE, we regularly assist people in the Ruskin area of Florida to deal with their bed bug problems. We have been dealing with bed bugs for years, and appreciate just how challenging they can be to get rid of. If you are having bed bug problems in Ruskin, you are not alone!
Ruskin has a population of around 28,600 people, and it is estimated that 1 in 5 Americans have dealt with bed bugs. This means that the population of Ruskin has thousands of people who have dealt with bed bugs in recent years, which is why we are so regularly called in to help deal with the issue. Ruskin attracts bed bugs due to its hot climate and the high number of people visiting the city.
Over time, coastal towns like Ruskin can become plagued by bed bugs all without having to do anything. The natural climate here mixed with the rapid growth of the city means that the city is often seeing new bed bug arrivals across the year. To get rid of bed bugs, then, you need a rapid, proven solution that can be used to help kill off bed bugs of all shapes and sizes.
We can offer you help and support in the form of professional bed bug treatments. We use heat treatment via Heat Assault at BBE. This is the most powerful and proven form of treatment for bed bugs in Ruskin. This method has been our go-to for some time now, providing a level of effectiveness and lethality that you do not get with other bug bed solutions.
Why is heat treatment our go-to for Ruskin bed bugs? Heat treatment is highly effective. While other forms of treatment might kill off some bed bugs, heat treatment kills off the entire colony. This avoids leaving bed bugs behind who could later infest your home and make it worse. As such, you can look forward to a solution that gets rid of the bed bugs in good time whilst being highly effective.
We believe that bed bug treatments involving heat are the best solution that you have for rapid, fast-acting bed bug treatment. By reaching a temperature as high as 145F, Heat Assault ensures that no bed bugs are left behind. This kills off all ages and stages of life of bed bugs, giving you that guaranteed peace of mind that the problem is under control and the bed bugs will not return.

Knowing your enemy is half the battle, especially when dealing with a persistent and hardy pest like the bed bug. With that in mind, you might wish to use our guide for things to know about Ruskin bed bugs. These key facts can play a vital role in making sure you can finally rid your home or business of bed bugs.
There are some clear signs that you have a problem with bed bugs. Knowing what to look out for besides actually seeing the bed bugs crawling around is very important. To help you make that decision, we recommend that you focus on looking for the following signs:
• Dried-in stains that appear on your bedding and/or furniture – this is a sign of either dried-in blood from biting you or dried-in fecal matter
• Bitemarks appearing on your body after you wake up. These bites can be forceful enough to wake you up, though, so look out for that
• A strong smell that lingers in the air and does not go anywhere; this might be musky and even a little sweet, which is the telltale sign of bed bugs
• The presence of small eggshells and even dead bed bugs appearing around your bed, furniture, and baseboards/entry points into the room
• In the worst case, you might even notice beg bugs moving around your bed or your furniture. When you can see the bed bugs, the infestation is serious!
There are many reasons, but the climate and the rapid development play a role. New property construction is a major part of life in Ruskin, and this can bring lots of people from new areas. That is a problem in itself, as bed bugs are known to piggyback ride on people via their clothing, luggage, and vehicles. So, bed bugs are brought into Ruskin purely thanks to the number of people arriving.
While over a tenth of the Ruskin, workforce operates from home, there are high numbers of bed bugs collected and brought about to the city thanks to traveling. This is why bed bugs in Ruskin and across Florida can feel so common; the climate and the transit-heavy nature of the state make bed bugs more likely to be picked up and brought home.
The vast majority of homes in Ruskin, over 64%, were built in the 21st century. This means that construction is commonplace, which can be one of the biggest drivers of an increasing bed bug population.
Many of our clients resort to using DIY treatments or over-the-counter remedies bought in-store or online. While well-meaning, these tend to be fruitless endeavors as bed bugs can survive just about any non-heat treatment. Chemical treatments or ‘bed bug traps’ bought online tend to only kill off a tiny portion of the problem. At the same time, they have rapid rates of growth, so they can outbreed your efforts.
This means that getting on top of a bed bug problem without using a professional solution like heat treatment is rarely successful. This is why we recommend that you avoid using any kind of DIY treatment. You might find a ‘solution’ online that kills off some visible bed bugs, but they will soon reappear.
The problem with bed bugs is that they can enter your property with ease simply by arriving through cracks in the foundations. Bed bugs are most commonly brought into a property by a person, latching onto our clothing, luggage, bags, and other items we happen to bring home.
They could simply be moving from one building nearby to another, though, so stopping the arrival of bed bugs in Ruskin is not easy. By all means, focus on patching up areas and trying to remove entry points, but bed bugs can usually find a way in no matter what we do. This is why they need to be killed off.
Bed bugs can easily transport themselves into your home or business. Their arrival is almost impossible to stop; the secret is getting rid of the infestation as quickly and as efficiently as you can to rid yourself of the problem. Stopping bed bugs from entering your property entirely, though, is almost impossible.
No, sadly not. Bed bugs are simply looking for a place that gives them an active and constant source of blood. Sadly, our homes and businesses are the perfect place for that. This is why bed bugs are likely to be found in an old warehouse as they are a brand-new hospitality suite. They find their way into anywhere that gives them access to blood and will not move on unless the blood source is removed.
So, you cannot wait for a bed bug infestation. They will return and continue to feast until they are wiped out using a powerful anti-bug solution.
We are regularly asked this question, and it makes sense; a pest biting you is never a good thing whatsoever. However, bed bugs tend to pose a threat to your health and well-being simply by hurting you. They do not carry disease or cause infection; your biggest worry is that your wound gets infected or irritated and needs medical treatment.
However, while bed bugs are not specifically dangerous, they can pose a threat to your well-being. They can impact your quality of sleep, which has a knock-on effect on everything else that you do in your life. As such, do not ignore bed bugs as “just” bites. You also run the risk of an allergic reaction to the bite, which can be dangerous if not treated accordingly.
Keep in mind, too, that a bed bug will bite you more than once – this means that the bed bugs will leave small zig-zag-shaped bitemarks on your body.
Put simply, this is an outdated and ineffective form of treatment. We highly recommend that you do not rely upon chemical treatment as the results are very disappointing. They tend to kill off a portion of the problem, but the infestation will remain. Since a single bed bug can breed hundreds, they soon return due to the rapid nature in which bed bugs can breed.
We also believe that chemical treatments post more problems than solutions. The chemicals are damaging to the environment, need to be used repeatedly, and can cause collateral damage to our pets if they happen to consume the chemical treatment. While once seen as the gold standard in bed bug treatments, this is no longer the case.
Heat treatment is the ideal solution, as it removes all of the use of chemical treatment and can often wipe out the entire bed bug colony in one sitting as opposed to several.
No, thankfully not. While a mattress might seem infested by bed bugs, you do not have to get rid of that mattress. Once the bed bugs have been cleared out using heat treatment, the furniture simply needs to be given a thorough clean. Cleaning the furniture should get rid of any potential issues that might exist, bringing the problem to an end immediately.
