How to Tell if You Have Bedbug Bites – Dartford Advice from Pest Experts
Spot the signs before the infestation grows
Common Symptoms of Bedbug Bites
Itchy red bumps on your skin? Bites in a straight line or clustered together? If you’re noticing any of these symptoms in your Dartford home, there’s a good chance you may be dealing with bedbugs.
Unlike mosquito bites, bedbug bites tend to appear on areas of skin exposed while you sleep — like arms, neck, face, and legs.
Other Signs You May Have Bedbugs
- Blood spots on your sheets or pillowcases
- Small brown spots (bedbug faeces) on bedding or furniture
- Sweet, musty odour in the bedroom
- Live bedbugs or shed skins near mattress seams and cracks
Bedbugs are tiny and hide well, so visible bites may be your first clue that they’re present.
