Bed bugs: prevention is victory
Nova Control, bed bug control company in Ibiza and Formentera.
Not all pests are the same, and therefore, not all pests will have the same solution, nor the same cost. Whether it is the number of work hours for each treatment, the number of treatments necessary, the work schedule in which it is possible for the client to do the treatment, the type of products and PPE that are needed...in short, there are pests that hurt the pocket less (which we at Nova Control would like if all of them could always be done at a low cost), and others that may involve a more significant expense.
Bed bugs (Cimex lectularius) are one of those pests that can have a high cost, as a result of the amount of work associated with their treatment, the type of products and the number of treatments necessary.

The reason why bed bugs are going to affect us as a pest is because of their diet: basically for them we are walking blood bags, on which they and their numerous offspring could feed for generations.
How do bugs feed?
Bed bugs are a hemipteran insect belonging to the Cimicidae family. Their mouthparts are designed to bite, that is, to introduce a stinger in the style of a mosquito, only in this case, they introduce two stingers: one to inject their own saliba, which contains anticoagulant substances, which help prevent the the entrance hole of the stinger is self-repairing, and anesthetic substances, which will prevent us from feeling the sting immediately. With the second stinger, it is the one they feed themselves with, since this is the one they use to suck blood.

As can be seen in the photos of the Nova Control bed bug control service that accompany this entry, bed bugs are located outside our body. This means that generally, we will only find evidence of their passage, namely: the number of wounds that they will leave us spread across different parts of the body, and that will be associated with each of the individuals. that has been feeding on our blood. But we are neither going to see them, nor are we going to hear them.
When do bugs feed?
The answer to this is very simple: when we are not going to feel them. Bed bugs come to our body to feed at the only time when we are not going to see them, nor feel them crawling on it and, furthermore, we are going to be still; That is to say: they attack us while we sleep. The fact that the bedbugs that appear in the photos are in mattresses and living room furniture is no coincidence. Rather, it is quite the opposite: when we have doubts about whether or not there are bed bugs in our environment, where we have to look for them, it is precisely in the furniture of the rooms, sofas, bedding... something for which it is worth more have the assistance of a professional, rather than doing it yourself, because given their size, and the intricate places in which they seek to hide, they can be difficult to see; even though there may be a large infestation.

Preventing is winning.
As has already been hinted at in the statement we have given to this entry, given the complexity of the treatment of this species, it is quite painful for the client on many occasions to discover that the origin of the pest has been in a piece of furniture or another element. collected from a clean point with the sole purpose of continuing to give it useful life. Picking up items from the street that are going to be in contact with our skin, especially during something as sensitive as rest due to the number of hours in a row that we are going to be in direct contact with their surfaces, is something that should never be done. .
