Bed Bug Control in New York & Connecticut

Bed Bug Treatments For Homes & Businesses

While bed bugs have been around for a long time, in the last decade, they’ve enjoyed a strong resurgence that has resulted in bed bugs in hotels, apartment complexes, office buildings, retail stores, and movie theaters, as well as other types of commercial facilities throughout the Greater New York area. They are also a prevalent pest problem for homeowners in New York, Connecticut, and New Jersey.

In fact, we’ve been treating bed bugs in Brooklyn and the New York metro since our founding in 1932.

Proper identification of infested areas is essential to successfully eradicate all bed bug activity in a residential dwelling or commercial establishment. Due to their small size and their elusive nature, tracking down bed bugs can be challenging. That is why pest control companies across the nation employ highly trained canines to assist with bed bug detection in various settings including homes, hotels, and schools.

Trained in much the same manner as bomb and drug-sniffing dogs, Parkway’s bed bug dogs use their keen sense of smell to detect live, adult bed bugs as well as eggs and nymphs. In addition to being highly accurate, our dogs and their handlers are discreet and can complete the search of a single room in less than five minutes. An inspection performed by a trained canine allows for quicker, more effective treatment if bed bugs are detected.

Preventing A Bed Bug Infestation

With the increase in domestic and international travel and the lack of public awareness, it is getting more difficult to avoid bed bugs. The good news is that you can reduce your chances of experiencing bed bug bites with a little forethought. Here are a few bed bug prevention tips from the NYC bed bug control pros:

• Be vigilant when using public transportation as reports of this pest on planes, cabs and buses has become more commonplace
• Know the signs of these bugs and where to look for them in hotel rooms and other lodgings when you are away from home
• Do not stay in an infested room; request a new room well away from the bed bug problem or consider staying at another establishment
• Inspect luggage and other items carefully for bugs or signs of them before you introduce them into your home or business
• Avoid bringing home used mattresses, box springs, and furniture as well as personal items, including clothing and electronic devices
