What Does A Bed Bug Look Like In Cambridge?

Bed bugs are a common problem for people living in an urban setting. Bed bugs are exceptional hitchhikers and move from location to location with people, meaning the more people there are moving in and out of a space, the more likely bed bugs will be present. As people travel, work, go to school, or complete other daily tasks, they come into contact with bed bugs and introduce them into their Cambridge homes. Knowing what bed bugs look like and where they like to hide is vital to protecting your Cambridge home from bed bugs. 

• Bed bugs appear very similar to an apple seed with six legs.
• These insects have flat oval bodies that will swell into a more capsule-like shape after consuming a blood meal.
• They are reddish-brown before feeding; after feeding, they turn a deep purplish-red. 
• Their favorite hiding spots include the seams of mattresses, upholstered furniture, cracks of wooden furniture, behind wall hangings, and inside electrical outlets. 

If you ever discover what you believe is a bed bug in your home, take fast action and call us at Assurance Pest Solutions.

Why Cockroach Prevention Matters For Cambridge Homeowners

Cockroach prevention matters because, without it, your home and family are vulnerable. Thriving in urban areas, cockroaches do best in places that provide them with plenty of food, warm shelter, and moisture, three things that most Cambridge homes and businesses offer these opportunistic pests. Below are four reasons you need to take steps to prevent cockroaches from finding their way into your house.

1. Cockroaches live in areas of filth. When they are in your home, they track bacteria, human pathogens, and parasites across surfaces.

2. Cockroaches are scavengers and feed on almost anything they come across. In our homes, they contaminate large amounts of food. 

3. Cockroaches produce pheromones which cause an unpleasant musty smell to build up in a structure they are invading. 

4. Their shed skins and feces build up and put allergens in the air that can cause respiratory problems, skin rashes, and even trigger asthma attacks.

Cockroaches have no business being in or around your home. To help you avoid problems with these pests, partner with Assurance Pest Solutions!
