How to identify bed bugs
Adult bed bugs are flat, oval and reddish-brown, about the size of an apple seed. They hide in mattress seams, box springs, headboards and furniture near where people sleep, and come out at night to feed.
Signs you may have a problem
- Small itchy bites in lines or clusters, often on arms and shoulders
- Tiny dark spots on sheets, mattress seams or box springs
- Shed skins or live bugs in seams and crevices
- A musty odor in heavier infestations
Why it matters
Bed bugs spread easily on luggage, clothing and furniture, and they rarely go away on their own. Eggs survive many treatments, so a planned series of visits is what fully eliminates them.
Common in: Wichita, Derby, Andover, Newton, Haysville, El Dorado, Hutchinson, McPherson, Arkansas City, and across Central Kansas.
