Stop Bed Bugs from Taking Over
Here’s the Real Reason You Can’t Sleep

If you’re waking up with itchy bites, strange marks on your sheets, or a lingering sense of discomfort, there’s a good chance bed bugs are the culprit. These pests are more than just a minor inconvenience — they’re notoriously hard to detect, quick to spread, and incredibly persistent.

Mattress with Bed Bugs infestation

What many people don’t realise is how rapidly a small bed bug problem can turn into a full-blown infestation. A single female bed bug can lay hundreds of eggs in her lifetime, allowing populations to explode in just a matter of weeks1. Once they’ve settled in, they hide in mattresses, furniture, and wall cracks — often going unnoticed until the infestation is well established.

Bed bugs are expert hitchhikers. They can come into your home on luggage, folded clothing, bedding, including used mattresses, and other second-hand furniture or boxes. If you live with a lot of people or with frequent travelers, your risk of unknowingly bringing home these unwanted pests increases significantly.

For homes, that means disrupted sleep, stress, and potential allergic reactions. For hotels, B&Bs, and short-term rental properties, even one guest encounter can snowball into online reviews that damage your reputation. Worse still, bed bugs can live for months without feeding, making them incredibly difficult to eliminate without professional treatment2. These temporary fixes often scatter the infestation deeper into the property rather than solving the issue.
