Expert Bed Bug Treatment You Can Trust in Southeast Michigan and Northern Ohio
A good night’s sleep is important to your health, but next to impossible when you suspect you have a bed bug infestation. These nocturnal insects crawl into bed with you and feed on your blood during the night, leaving clusters of bites on your exposed skin for you to find in the morning. DIY treatments are rarely effective at complete bed bug removal and can expose your family and pets to toxic chemicals. The experienced professionals at Frame’s Pest Control have highly effective bed bug treatment methods that will eliminate these annoying bed bugs and allow you to return to peaceful slumber
How to Identify if Bed Bugs Are Present
Bed bugs are tiny, which makes them difficult to spot. They also hide anywhere they can fit, which includes behind light switches, wall art, and baseboards. However, when you know what to look for, you can discover you have a problem and quickly get expert help, such as that provided by Frame’s. Common indications that you may have bed bugs in your home include:
- Reddish-brown bugs the size of an apple seed .
- A musty odor that doesn’t appear to have a source.
- Tiny blood smears on your sheets.
- Small dark flecks of droppings in the seams of sheets and mattresses.

Bed Bug Prevention Guide

- When traveling, completely inspect the mattress, baseboards, and other furniture of your lodgings.
- Avoid using the floor or an extra bed as a luggage rack and keep your luggage away from the walls.
- Immediately wash clothing and clean luggage upon returning from a trip.
- Run anything that can’t or doesn’t need to be washed in your dryer for 15 minutes at the highest setting before putting it away.
- Thoroughly check used items before bringing them into your home, including couches, clothing, mattresses, dressers, and electronics.
