Why are bed bugs difficult to treat?

Bed bugs are one of the most challenging pests for homeowners and one of the more difficult pests to treat. Because they’re natural hitch hikers, they get around from place-to-place. They travel by book bags, purses, and clothes, and can hide in beds, bed frames, and furniture. Another reason bed bugs are challenging to treat is that they are highly resilient creatures. They can survive for several months without feeding, hide in hard-to-reach places, and have developed immunity to some pesticides. They also reproduce quickly, and an infestation can spread to other areas within a short amount of time. A proactive approach to pest control is crucial to prevent bed bugs from becoming a nightmare, and our team of technicians at Rochester Pest Pro are experts at bed bug removal in the Rochester, NY area.
