Bed Bug Control in NYC
Bed bugs spread through luggage, furniture and shared walls. Early inspection keeps the problem small.
Short answerBed bug control begins with inspection of beds, furniture and nearby walls, then a treatment plan matched to what is found. In buildings, neighboring units usually need to be checked too. Renters should notify the landlord in writing.
Signs to Look For
Live bugs, small rusty stains on bedding, shed skins and bites that appear in lines or clusters. Bites alone do not confirm bed bugs, because other things cause similar marks.
Multifamily Buildings
Bed bugs move between units through walls, pipes and shared spaces. Report to the owner in writing and use 311 residential pest complaint options if needed.
What Not to Do
Do not move furniture through hallways or bag and dump items without guidance, because that spreads bugs. Do not use foggers or unlabeled products.
What to Tell Us Before the Inspection
When you first noticed bites or stains, which rooms are affected, whether you have traveled or brought in used furniture, and whether neighbors have reported bed bugs. Leave bedding and mattress covers in place until the inspection.
Not sure what you are dealing with? An inspection finds the source and sets the scope.
