What to do with Winter Bed Bugs

Bed Bug Problems

What to expect from bed bugs in the cold winter months in Temecula and Riverside County.

Bed Bugs are resilient pests and thrive indoors no matter what the temperatures may be like outdoors. They are even considered to be highly active during the winter months. Chances are you brought the “hitch hiking” pests inside of your home yourself. Bed bugs tend to travel from place to place by way of latching onto purses, backpacks, and luggage. As we keep our homes toasty and warm bed bugs are in no rush to leave.
