Few pest problems create more stress than discovering bed bugs in your home or business. They spread easily, hide exceptionally well, and can quickly become a frustrating problem without the proper treatment plan.
At Guardian Pest Solutions, we provide thorough inspections, honest recommendations, and professional treatment options designed to eliminate bed bugs while helping you understand exactly what to expect throughout the process.
What Are Bed Bugs?
Bed bugs are small, reddish-brown insects that feed on the blood of humans and other warm-blooded animals.
Although they are often associated with beds, they can also be found hiding in:
- Mattresses
- Box springs
- Bed frames
- Headboards
- Furniture
- Recliners
- Couches
- Nightstands
- Baseboards
- Electrical outlets
- Luggage
- Clothing
Their flat bodies allow them to hide in extremely small cracks and crevices during the day before becoming active at night.
How Do Bed Bugs Get Into Homes or Businesses?
Bed bugs are excellent hitchhikers.
They commonly spread through:
- Hotels and vacation rentals
- Used furniture
- Luggage
- Clothing
- Apartment buildings
- Visitors
- Public transportation
Finding bed bugs is not an indication that a home or business is dirty. They can infest any home regardless of cleanliness.
Signs You May Have Bed Bugs
Common signs include:
- Small blood/rust stains on bedding
- Dark fecal spotting on mattresses or furniture
- Shed skins
- Tiny white eggs
- Live bed bugs hiding in seams and cracks
Because bed bugs are excellent at hiding, a professional inspection is often the best way to confirm an infestation.

Every bed bug service begins with a detailed inspection.
We’ll carefully examine:

Frequently Asked Questions
Are bed bugs caused by poor housekeeping?
No. Bed bugs can infest any home or business regardless of cleanliness. They spread by hitchhiking on people, luggage, clothing, and furniture.
Can I eliminate bed bugs myself?
Over-the-counter products often fail to eliminate established infestations because bed bugs hide in extremely small cracks and crevices. Professional treatment is usually the most effective solution.
How long does treatment take?
Treatment times vary depending on the size of the home or business and the severity of the infestation. We’ll explain the expected process during your inspection.
Will one treatment solve the problem?
Some infestations require multiple treatments and follow-up inspections to achieve complete control. Every situation is different.
