Bed bugs are on the rise in Houston and throughout the country, triggering nightmares in households everywhere. The 
The name “bed bug” is very misleading as these pests spread to any area frequented by people – from suitcases and recliners to handrails and even ceilings. Once you’ve suspect any size infestation, you’ll want to get a professional in right away to inspect all possible areas these critters might be hiding.
While, “sleep tight, don’t let the bed bugs bite” might make you think these creatures only come out at night, that’s not entirely true. While bed bugs are nocturnal by nature, bright lights will not deter them if they are hungry enough to feed. So if you’re plan is to keep all the lights on until someone comes to get rid of these monsters, you’ll want to think twice.
While it may be tempting to plug “Bed Bug Spray” into your Amazon search bar, you may be setting yourself up for disappointment with your DIY remedies. If you suspect you may have a bed bug issue, it’s best to leave everything to the professionals. Their inspection will help ensure you’ve found all areas of infestation and their expertise will help you find the absolute best remedy to the problem.
With any bed bug treatment, from conventional treatments to thermal remediation, there is a possibility of re-introduction. There is no treatment that leaves a residual effect to prevent another infestation. The best way to prevent re-introduction is to actively inspect for signs of infestation and change habits that might make you more susceptible.
