Marc and his crew did an amazing job at my Mom’s house! My Mom had a massive infestation and the treatment at her home required a lot of work and time from Marc and his team. Marc kept me informed throughout the day of their progress. The house was left very clean as Marc and his team cleaned up a ton of the dead bed bugs. I am so thankful to Marc and his team as they did an exceptional job and went above and beyond to help me. I would highly recommend Marc and his crew as they delivered as promised. Thanks Marc for everything…. Tina

I own an apartment building & tenants complained of bedbugs. I had the apts sprayed by an exterminator 3 times and they always came back. I found Mark with Bed Bug Busters and he explained the whole process, provided a quote then provided the service on schedule. We are bedbug free and my tenants and I can sleep peacefully! I highly recommend Mark's company! He honest, caring and professional while performing his service. Spraying alone doesn't work!
Frequently Asked Questions About Bed Bug Busters By Ellington Management LLC
What are bed bugs?
Bed bugs are small, parasitic insects that feed on human blood.
Where did bed bugs come from?
During the 18th Century, bed bugs made their way onto American soil via ships arriving from Europe. By the 20th Century, most Americans had seen and been bitten by bed bugs. However, with diligence and the use of pesticides, bed bugs had almost been eliminated.
So why are Bed Bugs still an issue and why are we hearing more about them?
Unfortunately, the bed bug began making a resurgence, showing up in hotels and motels during the 1990’s. This resurgence has steadily increased; and today, the bed bug population has reached exponential numbers throughout America.
Much of this is a result of:
- Increased international travel
- Buying second-hand or vintage furniture
- Bed bugs' increasing resistance to multiple types of pesticides including DDT
- A lack of community awareness or knowledge of the bed bug
How do I know if I have bed bugs?
Look for physical signs, such as bites, bloodstains and/or black fecal spots on bedding and furniture, small white dots (which are their eggs), the exoskeletons they shed, or the bed bugs themselves.
Are there health risks associated with bed bugs?
Aside from skin irritation from bites and/or anxiety from knowing that you have bed bugs, there are no major health risks associated with bed bugs – they do not transmit diseases.
What should I do if I suspect a bed bug infestation?
Do not try to treat on your own, which could make the matter worse. Always call your local pest control professional, preferably us as we specialize in the one treatment that is guaranteed to kill bed bugs at all of their life stages.
What is your treatment method?
It’s called thermal remediation – it’s a one-day process where we use special heaters to warm the home to a level that is lethal to bed bugs but safe for your furniture and belongings. Fans then circulate the heat throughout the home, reaching all the places the bed bugs love to hide. No prep is needed and everything in the home is treated.
What else should I know about bed bugs?
Bed bugs can happen to anyone – the rich, the poor, the clean, the dirty, in homes, apartments, cars, you name it. People rather say that they have roaches than say they have bed bugs but we’d love to stop the stigma. There is no shame in having bed bugs. Reach out for help instead of keeping it to yourself. We’re here to help and bring you peace of mind.
