In this picture, we can see the shape of the bed bug very clearly. The shape of a bed bug is usually compared to that of an apple seed. You can see that its body is broad, oval-shaped, and slightly pointed at the end. We can also observe its color, which is reddish-brown in this case.
This is a bed bug upside down. We can see all six legs and the antennae very clearly. Again, note the size and shape: the color is brown, and the body is oval with a pointed abdomen tip. The darker colour seen in the center of the bed bug is most likely blood from feeding, and the black dot visible is fecal matter.
In this picture, we can appreciate the flatness of a bed bug, which is often described. The color is on the darker side, and this image shows what the texture of a bed bug looks like under bright light.
Here, we can clearly see the size of an adult bed bug, this picture shows a bed bug crawling on a curtain tieback. We can also see the flatness of the bed bug from a different angle here, as well as its color, texture, and shape.
Here again, we can very clearly see all the characteristics of the bed bug described above, including its size, shape, color, and texture.
This bed bug is pictured on the carpet next to a baseboard. The six legs and the antennae are visible when zoomed in, and the shape and flatness of the bug are also clearly visible.
Two adult bed bugs are pictured here. Both appear dark in color and elongated, with a plump shape, likely due to a recent feeding.
Here, we can see multiple bed bugs on a wooden bed frame slat. There are five adult bed bugs, identifiable by their larger size and darker colour. The rest are bed bug nymphs at various stages of development or shed exoskeletons (covered in the next section). The nymphs can be identified by their lighter colour, yellowish heads, and the dark spot visible in their abdomen.
Here, we see a single bed bug nymph crawling on a bag. Note its light colour and the dark spot in the abdomen.
In this picture, we see a bed bug nymph next to an adult bed bug, making it easy to compare their size and colour. For scale, a silver ball pin is placed beside them.
In this picture, we see five bed bug nymphs on a piece of fabric, with a few stuck to tape. The fabric seam is visible, helping to provide a sense of scale. Note the yellowish colour of the nymphs and the dark spot in their abdomen, which indicates a recent blood meal.
This is one of our proudest photos. It clearly shows the different sizes that bed bug exoskeletons (shed skins) come in. It also highlights that all legs and body segments are intact. You can also see the dry, brittle, and fragile nature of the skins.
In this photo, a large number of bed bug exoskeletons (shed skins) can be seen against a light-colored wood floor. The exoskeletons appear dry and brittle, making them easy to crush. They are shaped like bed bugs and appear pale in color and translucent.
This photo shows bed bug shed skins of varying sizes. A few eggs are also visible in the image, helping to provide perspective on their size and colour.
In this picture, we can see a cluster of bed bug eggs on a wooden bed frame. These are usually cemented onto the surface and hard to the touch.
A very close-up view of bed bug eggs. These are hatched, as they appear empty and nearly translucent.
This picture clearly shows the scale, with a gloved human finger next to an adult bed bug and eggs. It also highlights a common hiding spot, along the seam at the bottom of a couch, where the fabric opens slightly, creating an ideal place for bed bugs and their eggs to remain hidden.
A cluster of bed bug eggs is shown, with a few adult bed bugs also visible in the photo, which helps give a better perspective of the size of bed bug eggs.
Licensed Bed Bug Extermination
We have a service coverage of a 100 kilometre radius around Toronto.
In this photo, we can see dark spotting along the edge of a mattress next to several adult bed bugs, a common sign of bed bug activity.
Here, we can see bed bug fecal matter next to three adult bed bugs and their eggs on a wooden bed frame.
In this case, we can see very heavy bed bug activity, along with fecal matter on a wall and baseboard. In this image, the fecal matter appears slightly raised after drying on the surface.
In this picture, we have a similar situation, but this time we can see what bed bug fecal stains look like on a bed sheet.
This photo shows what bed bug fecal matter can look like on a mattress cover in the case of a very heavy infestation.
