No one wants the grim realization that their home is infested with bed bugs. They may not directly spread disease, but they feed off of human blood – your blood. When we see little spots of blood in our bed, it’s usually from where we’ve rolled over and squish them in our sleep, or from their waste. Not a great mental image, right?
When it comes to these unwanted little critters, forewarned is forearmed, so it can help to know how they get into your home, so you can act quickly if it happens to you.
It can be a grim discovery to find that you have bed bugs and to make the situation even more stressful; bed bugs can be tricky to get rid of. These tiny critters are drawn to warmth and moisture and often come back home with you after a vacation or work trip.
If you’ve ever encountered bed bugs in your home or are searching for a solution right now, this guide will help you identify them and why many bed bug treatments fail.
A bed bug heat treatment requires a lot of power, so you need to be careful about where you plug in each extension cord, so the power draw is balanced throughout the home for the available power.

Bed bugs are never welcome, and chemical treatments of the past are outdated. Today, heat treatments are the best way to eliminate all bed bugs in a residence or business quickly and safely. In many cases, a room can be inhabited again that same day.
You know Convectex heat packages are the answer, but which is the right one for you? Below, we’ll guide you through our top three to help you choose the right Convectex heat package for your needs.
Due to their incredibly small size, bed bugs can fit into even the smallest cracks and crevices, making finding them difficult. If you are looking to treat your bed bugs, either using professionals or yourself, it is important to know just how large your treatment area is so that you treat the right areas of your home and don’t miss any bed bugs. If you leave even just one or two bed bugs alive, or just eggs, the infestation will come back.
The best way to do this is to carry out an inspection of your home, focusing on the areas where bed bugs are typically found.
