Pest Identification is Critical in Integrated Pest Management
Here is a recent picture of an insect we trapped on our EnSec glue board in effort to properly identify a customer's pest problem. This image was taken under a microscope. Above the speciem picture are two possible identifying pictures to compare likely subjects.
These images help convey an important fact: Even with professional tools proper indentification can be difficult. A proper pest management plan requires positive identification. One of these pests infests when humidity gets too high. One of these pests requires a blood meal from a host like you.
Please get a professional opinion before any pest managment techniques are employeed, especially if the circumstances lead to treating sensitive areas like your bed! We have seen customers throw their furniture away and worse before a professional opinion has been rendered. If you encounter a pest infestation, don't jump to conclusions. Don't just spray something out of a bottle hoping it will go away. When infestations happen it can affect your health and wallet one way or another.
This is a booklouse not a bed bug.
