Bed Bugs at one time were not as severe as a pest as
in the past, due to insecticides and increased sanitation. However,
due to the increased use of baits rather than insecticide sprays for
ant and cockroach
control in the past decade , bed bug infestations have increased.
Currently this insect can be a pest wherever sanitary conditions are
poor, or if there are birds or mammals nesting on or near a house.
International travel and commerce are thought to facilitate
the spread of these insect hitchhikers, because eggs, young, and adult
bed bugs are readily transported in luggage, clothing, bedding, and
furniture
There are several species of bed bugs, all of which
are pests of humans and domestic animals. The Common Bed Bug prefers
a human host.
Related species, such as the bat bug and bird bug, prefer to feed on
bats, birds, and other wild hosts, but will also feed on humans if the
opportunity arises or the preferred host dies or leaves the roost.
BED BUGS PICTURES: BED BUG IDENTIFICATION
The common bed bug is visible to the naked eye.
Adult bed bugs are brown to reddish-brown, oval-shaped, flattened, and
about 1/4 to 5/8 inch long. Their flat shape enables them to readily hide
in cracks and crevices.
After a blood meal, the body elongates and becomes swollen. Eggs are not
known to be placed on the host's body but are found on surfaces near where
the host sleeps.
Bed bugs have a beak like piercing-sucking mouthpart
system. The adults have small, stubby, nonfunctional wing pads. Newly
hatched nymphs are nearly colorless, becoming brownish as they mature.
Nymphs have the general appearance of adults. Eggs are white and about
1/32 inch long.
BEDBUGS DIET
Although the preferred host is human host, it will feed on other animals,
such as poultry, mice, rats, canaries, dogs, and cats if necessary. They
normally feed at night, but may feed in the daylight in rooms that are not
used at night.
BED BUGS LIFE CYCLE
Bed Bugs Life Cycle Diagram
View Larger Image
Bed bugs of varying age and size
The life cycle stages of a bed bug are egg, nymph, and
adult.
Bed bug females lay about 200 eggs, usually at the rate
of three or four a day, in cracks and crevices in the floor or bed. Eggs
are placed in cracks, crevices and other isolated and protected shelters.
Females lay eggs after a blood meal. Eggs will hatch in one or two weeks
into Nymphs. Newly hatched bugs(Nymphs) begin feeding immediately. At
room temperature, and with an available food supply, the nymphal period
will last 14 to 30 days. They shed their skin (Instar)five times before
becoming adults. Bed bugs will mate soon after becoming mature, so the
time from egg hatch to egg laying will be 4 to 9 weeks, under favorable
conditions.
HABITS OF BEDBUGS
Bed bugs hide in cracks and crevices during daylight hours.
They hide in the folds and tufts of mattresses, coils of springs, cracks
and hollow posts of bed stands bed rails and headboards. They may be found
in box springs, inside the cabinetry of furniture and the bottom and sides
of drawers.
They also can be found behind loose wallpaper, behind pictures on the
walls, under door and window casings, and behind baseboards.
They also hide in upholstery of chairs and sofas.
They are not restricted to these places, however.
How did I get Bed Bugs?
Since bed bugs hide in small crevices, they can travel with luggage, furniture, clothing, boxes, ect. This is how they move between hotels, homes and apartments.
Used furniture, particularly bed frames and mattresses, are of greatest risk of harboring bed bugs and their eggs. They may be present in vacant apartments hiding in cracks and crevices since they may survive months without a blood meal.
Bed bugs may travel between nearby apartments through voids in walls and holes though which wires and pipes pass. In a few cases, bats and/or birds may introduce and maintain bed bugs and their close relatives (bat bugs and bird bugs). All nests that harbor roots and bats should be removed.
.
WHAT DO BED BUG BITES LOOK LIKE?
Bed bugs are not usually considered to be disease carriers.
They do suck blood from their host with piercing mouth parts but the bite
is painless.
The skin may become irritated or inflamed due to the salivary fluid
injected by the bed bugs .A small, hard, swollen, white welt may develop
at the site of each bite.
It is important to recognize that not all bites
or bite-like reactions are due to bed bugs. Bed bugs or their signs will
be present if it is a bed bug bite.
Bed bugs do not live under the skin. If you experience biting
sensations during the day, it may be an allergy related condition.
(Other possible sources of irritation are discussed in University of Kentucky
entomology fact sheet Invisible
Itches: Insect and Non-Insect Causes).
Bed bugs may leave odors because of their stink glands.
BED BUG CONTROL AND BEDBUG
TREATMENTS
INSPECTION FOR
BED BUGS
The first order of business would be a good inspection.
Because the bed bugs may be difficult to see with the naked eye, we recommend
an industrial powered magnifier such as Carson's
Dual View Magnifier.

Look in any place that offers darkness, isolation and
protection. These bugs will often wander. Inspect adjoining rooms where
an infestation is found. Even when the bed bugs themselves cannot be found,
their hiding places can be located by looking for the spots of fecal material
they often leave in easily visible places.

Dark spots of bed bug excrement on a mattress.
(M. Potter, Univ. of Kentucky)
Fecal spots and the bloody spots(looks like rust) left
on sheets and pillowcases when engorged bugs are crushed serve as sure
signs of infestation. Adult bed bugs are about 1/4-inch long and reddish-brown,
with oval, flattened bodies. Bed bugs prefer to hide in cracks and crevices
during the daytime and come out to feed on the host's blood at night,
usually while the host is sleeping.
Inspect cracks and crevices in head and foot boards and
attached side railings and supports. Look for any cracks or crevices where
bed bugs may crawl into to hide.
If the top of the mattress have any rips , the bed bugs may hide there
as well. Look also in your bed springs, both top and bottom for any rips
that might shelter these bugs. Vacuum and treat with either Drione dust
or V One areosol. Most likely, you will need to treat 3-4 times in a space
of a couple months, as you cut the cycle.
PREVENTION OF BED BUGS
- Do not bring infested items into one's home.
International travel and commerce are thought to facilitate the spread
of these insect hitchhikers, because eggs, young, and adult bed bugs
are readily transported in luggage, clothing, bedding, and furniture.
Bed bugs can infest airplanes, ships, trains, and buses. A common infestation
may occur in a hotel or motel because of international travel.
Inspect clothing and baggage , being on the lookout for bed bugs and
their fecal spots.
Travelers bring the bed bugs with them. Once one female takes a blood
meal and is fed, she will start a local infestation. Once bed bugs are
introduced, they often spread room to room throughout a building.
- A second common source for bed bugs infestations occur in homes where
bats, swallows, chimney swifts, pigeons, or other wild hosts have been
roosting. Although similar in appearance, these bed bug species that
normally feed on bats and birds can be differentiated from Common Bed
Bugs that prefer humans.
The bat bug can and often feeds on humans. The bat bug has long hairs
on it's body. Eliminate their bat hosts from the building and seal all
openings so that bats cannot enter.
A thorough insecticide bedbug treatment with a residual spray such as
 Cyonara 9.7
should be applied to the area.
Most likely, you will need to treat 3-4 times in a space of a couple months,
as you cut the cycle.
Another group of bugs resembling the bed
bug infest birds. These bugs are usually confined to bird nests.
To control these parasites, the birds and their nests must be removed,
and an application of with a residual spray such as Cyonara 9.7 should be applied to the area.
- Inspect secondhand beds, bedding, and furniture. The newer better
built mattresses do not offer as much shelter and protection for the
bed bugs to hide.
- Caulk cracks and crevices in the building exterior and also repair
or screen openings to exclude birds, bats, and rodents that can serve
as alternate hosts for bed bugs.
VACUUM : BED BUG CONTROL
A good vacuum cleaning job may remove particles from cracks
and crevices to encourage greater insecticide penetration. Discard vacuum
cleaner bag in a sealed plastic bag when finished.

INSECTICIDES AND BEDBUG TREATMENTS: BED BUG CONTROL
Apply residual liquid, aerosol or dust residual insecticides
such as Cyonara
9.7 , CB
D Force Aerosol and Drione
Dust.
Most likely, you will need to treat 3-4 times in a space
of a couple months, as you cut the cycle.
RESIDUAL INSECTICIDE : Cyonara 9.7, CB
D Force Aerosol, and Drione Dust) USAGE:
Cyonara
9.7
Usage : Mix 12 ml.(measurements on the bottle)of
Cyonara 9.7 with one gallon of water(Remember to use what you
mix-within 24 hours.) Adjust the spray pattern to a mist by
turning the nozzle. A fine mist is best for most spraying,
but you may need to use a stream to get into some cracks and
crevices. Spray around and under the bed and along the baseboards
near the bed. After removing the drawers from the furniture,
the inside of the cabinetry should be sprayed as well as the
bottom and sides of the drawers. Do not treat the inside of
the drawers. If needed the clothes in the drawers should be
removed and laundered.
 CB
D FORCE AEROSOL: This residual aerosol is ready to use, and you
don't have to mix it. Spray in the same areas you would use the Suspend
SC
 DRIONE
DUST USAGE: Drione Dust is a ready to use
dust that is ideal for use on the mattress and box springs.
Do not use any dust such as  Delta
Dust
on mattresses, just Drione Dust. However you can use Delta Dust is a fine dust to dust in cracks and crevices. Delta Dust does not have a label to be dusted on the bed..
Fill the bulb
duster about half full and use it with the rubber stopper facing
down. Shaking first and then squeezing the duster will produce
a fine dust that resembles smoke. This is just what you want for
dusting the mattress with Drione Dust. Pay particular attention
to seams, folds, and stapled fabric under the box springs. The
joints where the rails and headboard connect are also prime hiding
areas for bed bugs. You may need to remove the fabric under the
box springs to access the inner springs. Cover the mattress with
a sheet and it is safe to sleep on.
Next dust behind pictures and
wall hangings as well as switch plate and outlet covers. Look for
any cracks or crevices in which bed bugs could hide and treat them.
You may use either Delta Dust or Drione Dust for application outside of beds.
Direct residual sprays or dusts such as Cyonara
9.7 , D Force HPX or Drione dust into areas where
insects hide during the day.
Broad surface bedbug treatments should be kept to a minimum if they are
used at all; bed bugs are most likely to get lethal doses in
cracks and crevices.
A re treatment is advisable after 10-14 days
Remember to read and follow all label instructions
NON RESIDUAL INSECTICIDE TREATMENT USAGE(May be
used daily):
 V One Pyrethrum Areosol is a contact kill insecticide that will not leave any residue to continue
to kill. It should be used to kill any bed bugs that are seen after treating
with the residual chemicals listed above. This will keep you from having
to mix chemicals each time you do see a bed bug.
- Cyonara 9.7, Intruder
HPX ,D-Force
HPX and Drione
Dust
- Use a Bellows
8 Oz. Duster to really get into the cracks and crevices with the
Drione Dust. Another tool used for dusting would be a small paint brush. Put a small amount of dust on the tip of the brush, brushing into cracks and crevices.
- Drione
Dust with natural pyrethrins, will last about 6 months when left
undisturbed
- Repeat the applications if you see signs of bed
bugs again after two weeks.
- After bed bug spraying or dusting, use a light application of an
aerosol contact bed bug spray (kills on contact, but does not reside)
such as V One Pyrethrum Aerosol with natural
pyrethrins .
Spray or dust the mattresses, stuffed chairs, clothes, etc., to kill
surviving bedbugs with Drione Dust or V One Aerosol
- You may sleep directly on mattresses with Drione Dust usage. Do not use Delta Dust on beds.
Make sure the mattress has a sheet put on
it before use.
