Bed Bugs - What to do?

First thing first: You will need to visit the following website:
The pdf documents can be printed off and will detail the whole process of preparing a place for treatment through to the end of the treatment by a pest control professional.
There is no underestimating the value of this website to those unfortunate enough to have to deal with this nuisance insect pests.

 This is the inside of a bed base.

The wooden battens reveal dark/black "felt tip pen" like marks. What are these, you may ask? Well, those black dots are bed bug "poo" - blood fecal marks. When bed bugs squeeze into tiny gaps, they may have to secrete some of the human blood stored in their abdomen. Or it will be where they have harboured to digest their blood feed, until the next feed.
There will be six blood feeds from the initial feed to full adult maturity; they must take a blood meal to finish each moult, the whole life cycle, under ideal conditions, can take as little as 2 months.
