No bugs. Simply better.
Yes. Bed bug bites often appear as red and itchy bumps, typically in a line or small clusters. Some people in Southlake even experience hives or blistering at the bite site. All the more reason to keep a great bed bug exterminator in mind, like Fox Pest Control.
Don’t panic. Bed bug bites can be bothersome, but they cannot transmit disease, as some other insects can.
Adult bed bugs are light brown to reddish-brown, flattened, oval-shaped, and have no hind wings. The front wings are vestigial and reduced to pad-like structures. Bed bugs have segmented abdomens with microscopic hairs that give them a banded appearance. Adults grow to 4–5 mm in length (just over 3/16-inch) and 1.5–3 mm wide. Newly hatched nymphs are translucent, lighter in color, and become browner as they molt and reach maturity. A bed bug of any age that has just consumed a blood meal will appear to have a bright red translucent abdomen; this color will fade to brown over the next several hours and, within two days, will become opaque and black as the insect digests its meal.
No, bed bugs don’t necessarily cause damage to structures. However, the value of a property can be impacted by the presence of a bed bug infestation. All the more reason to keep a great Southlake, TX bed bug exterminator in mind, like Fox Pest Control.
One of the more effective and efficient treatments for a bed bug infestation is the dual-pronged approach that Fox Pest Control uses. First, we treat with a safe and effective insecticide in typical bed bug traffic areas, then we apply insecticide dust to removed outlets and other hiding spots for the bugs. This process is repeated one week later.

We have been using Fox for about 6 months now and I have to say every member of this team that I've personally dealt with has been amazing. They are super patient, knowledgeable, and even when I ask them to come back out for extra prevention it's no questions asked and guilt free.

First service call we've had with FOX. From Chase who got us to sign up and Paul who came out and performed the service, I have nothing bad to say. Both were highly professional, kind, courteous and never made us feel like we were a burden. Awesome customer service from start to finish. Glad to be part of the FOX family!
