Challenging to get rid of and control because of their ability to survive long periods of time without feeding, Action Pest Control has devised effective pest management techniques that eliminate bed bugs from your home or commercial property in Twin Cities Metro Area.


Bed Bug Hiding Places

A thorough inspection of a property infested with bed bugs is necessary in order for pest control management to be effective. Habitats include mattress seams, bed frames, headboards, baseboards and carpet edges. Cracks and crevices, upholstered furniture and particularly any area used for sleeping are also potential hiding places for bed bugs.

What Do Bed Bugs Look Like?

Bed bugs are oval shaped and cannot fly. With blood as their sole food source, bites may be painless but often cause uncomfortable skin irritations, excessive itching and complications with allergies. Many report difficulties with stress, anxiety and insomnia due to the presence of bed bugs.

How Do Bedbugs Enter a Twin Cities Metro Area Location?

Bed Bugs are most frequently transferred into the home or workplace through luggage and other items that have become infested at hotels, motels and other hospitality locations during travel. Bed bugs can also be brought into your property via used bedding, furniture and clothing.

How to Avoid Bed Bugs While Travelling

  • Keep luggage off the ground
  • Use metal luggage racks
