Bed Bugs and Your Furniture
Many people don't know that bed bugs can reside in household furniture other than mattresses. These pests lurch deep within the material and can go undetected for months. Bed bugs tend to come out at night and feast on people while they sleep.
Bed bugs don't specifically all come out at night. While cleaning you may encounter these bugs crawling about. If you're unsure if it's a bed bug, collect the specimen and look online to see if it matches descriptions. This sample can be used as evidence that your landlord needs to fumigate your apartment.
We don't all sleep on couches or armchairs so bed bugs aren't as likely to bother us in these locations. However, they may crawl and bite you while you're watching tv or doing other activities. Your furniture will need proper pest fumigation to get rid of these pests.
Since bed bugs are stealthy it's important that you look for signs of them in your living space. These bugs live close to their feeding source and can live in a variety of porous materials. They are also tiny and can hide in slim spaces the size of a credit card.
If you clean your furniture once a year it can be inspected for bed bugs in the process. Vivid Cleaning offers professional upholstery cleaning in Toronto and the GTA.
