Little Known Facts About Bed Bugs

Fact 1: Your foam mattress isn’t safe from bed bugs.
While bed bugs can’t live in foam, they can stash themselves in any crevice that’s close to your body near your mattress, such as in the small cracks of your bed frame. Even though foam isn’t habitable for bed bugs, someone who’s sleeping on it is still vulnerable. In the past, Wichita residents believed that if they had a foam mattress they were safe from these little buggers, but we know now that’s not the case.

Fact 2: Bed bugs can move around your Wichita home, not just in your bed.
Bed bugs can get around by themselves quite easily because of their size. They can crawl through electrical outlets, up through walls, down hallways, making multi-unit buildings a dream for them.

Fact 3: If you think they’re gone, they’re probably not really gone.
Bed bugs can live one to four months at regular temperatures (possibly a bit longer at cooler temperatures). An exterminator such as Wichita’s own All Star Pest Control should come more than once and should inspect your home before offering a quote. Many exterminators include a follow-up visit, but some will return several times.
