Signs You Have Bed Bugs
Live bugs in mattress seams, box springs, headboards — reddish-brown, flat, apple-seed size
Blood stains on sheets or pillowcases from crushed bugs overnight
Dark fecal spots on mattress edges, walls near the bed, or electrical outlets
Bite marks — itchy red welts in lines or clusters on arms, neck, shoulders, or back
Shed skins — pale yellow husks in seams, corners, and hiding spots
Sweet musty odor — a distinctive smell in severe infestations
Why DIY Bed Bug Treatment Fails
Bed bugs are among the most DIY-resistant pests in existence. They hide in places sprays can’t reach — inside walls, electrical outlets, behind picture frames, inside electronics. Foggers (bug bombs) actively scatter bed bugs to untreated rooms, making the problem significantly worse. Heat treatment or professional-grade chemical treatment by a licensed technician is the only approach that reliably eliminates the entire infestation.
Murray’s Treatment Process
Inspection
Thorough inspection of mattress seams, box springs, furniture, baseboards, outlets, and wall voids. We confirm the infestation and map every affected area.
Custom Treatment Plan
We design a protocol targeting bed bugs at all life stages — eggs, nymphs, and adults. We explain what to expect and provide a preparation checklist.
Professional Treatment
Licensed technicians apply professional-grade products that reach all identified hiding areas systematically and thoroughly.
Follow-Up Verification
We return to verify complete elimination. If bed bugs are detected at follow-up, we retreat at no additional charge.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I have bed bugs?
Look for: small reddish-brown bugs (apple-seed size) in mattress seams and box springs, rust-colored blood stains on sheets, dark fecal spots on mattress edges, itchy red bite marks in lines or clusters on exposed skin, and a sweet musty odor in severe infestations.
How did I get bed bugs?
Bed bugs hitchhike on luggage, clothing, used furniture, and even library books. Hotels, Airbnbs, college dorms (OSU students take note), and second-hand stores are common sources. Anyone can get bed bugs — it has nothing to do with cleanliness.
Can I get rid of bed bugs myself?
Rarely. Bed bugs hide in cracks, electrical outlets, inside walls, and picture frames — far beyond where store-bought sprays reach. Bug bombs (foggers) actually scatter bugs to untreated rooms, making the infestation worse. Professional treatment is the only reliable solution.
What does Murray’s bed bug treatment involve?
We begin with a thorough inspection to confirm the infestation and map all affected areas. We then apply professional-grade treatments targeting all life stages — eggs, nymphs, and adults — in every identified hiding spot. A follow-up inspection verifies complete elimination.
How long does bed bug treatment take?
Single-room treatments typically take 1-3 hours. Whole-home treatments may take a full day. You’ll prepare the space beforehand (we’ll give you a checklist) and stay out of treated areas for a few hours after. We walk you through everything before we start.
