What are bed bugs?

Bed bugs are insects that hide during the day and emerge at night to feed. They are primarily indoor pests as they want to live near their preferred hosts: people. The sole source of nutrition for bed bugs is blood. Before feeding, they are flat and oval-shaped; after feeding, the blood meal causes their bodies to swell, elongate and turn darker in color. They are easily transported by people from place to place, making them challenging pests to control in Orange County.

Are bed bugs dangerous?

Bed bugs don't possess venom, they don't deliver painful stings, and they aren't known to spread diseases. However, bed bugs are blood-feeding pests, making them a threat to us and unwanted in our homes and businesses. Those allergic to their saliva can develop red itchy rashes around the bite sites, and excessive scratching can lead to secondary infections.

Being nocturnal means bed bugs can hide during the day and only emerge when we are sleeping, making detecting an infestation difficult. Bed bugs are prolific breeders, and a large infestation can develop without our knowledge very quickly. Once you realize bed bugs are living in your home, it is hard to sleep soundly knowing they are crawling around and feeding on your blood as you sleep.

Where will I find bed bugs?

Since bed bugs live within our temperature-controlled structures, they are active and problematic year-round. Inside our homes, they squeeze their flat bodies into tight spaces to hide during the day. Their hiding spots are often in areas where we sleep or spend most of our time. Some of their favorite hideaways include the following:

Cracks in walls
Behind baseboards or wood trim
In the seams of couches and other upholstered furniture
In or under mattresses and box springs
Inside electrical outlets
In clutter or under piles of dirty laundry

Why do I have a bed bug problem?

Bed bugs aren't a problem in your home because they found a way inside through spaces in your home's exterior. These common Orange County pests are much more difficult to prevent because you can't seal an opening under your kitchen door to keep them out of your house.

Bed bugs have become an issue in your house because you have accidentally introduced them. Bed bugs move from place to place by hitchhiking on people or our things. They crawl on furniture, bedding, boxes, rugs, coats, or onto our clothing and are then brought into our homes.

Coming into contact with bed bugs can happen to anyone and often does after spending time in public places like hotels, airports, hospitals, schools, shopping centers, and dormitories.

Whether you frequently travel or travel only once in a while, always inspect your hotel room for signs of bed bugs before bringing your belongings inside.

Reduce hiding spots in your house by reducing areas of clutter.
Place bed bug-proof covers on all mattresses and box springs in your home.
Vacuum your house and wash your family's bedding regularly.
When out of your home, never place your coats, bags, or other belongings on the floor or on top of other people's belongings.

 Verified I would give Christian Hein 7 stars if Yelp allowed it. Christian provided one of the best customer-service experiences I've ever had with anyone who has come to my home. I've dealt with plenty of service professionals over the years, and unfortunately, it's rare to encounter someone who is genuinely exceptional in how they communicate and treat the customer. Christian was in a completely different league. From the moment he arrived, he was incredibly respectful, professional, friendly, thoughtful, and easy to communicate with. His tone and attitude were outstanding. He treated both me and my home with genuine respect, never made the interaction feel rushed or transactional, and somehow made a routine pest-control appointment feel like a genuinely great customer experience. What stood out most was that none of it felt forced. Christian simply carries himself like someone who takes tremendous pride in his work and genuinely cares about how he treats people. Companies spend enormous amounts of time and money trying to train employees to deliver this level of service. Christian Hein seems to do it naturally. He is exactly the kind of person you want representing your company and interacting with your customers. I almost never write reviews this enthusiastic, but he absolutely earned it. 7/5 stars. Truly world-class service. Give Christian a raise.

 Verified Great job, overall! We had to do wood repair and fumigation. The whole process went so smoothly. Starting with great communication ( Christal and Dave), caring about garden and surrounding (Mike and Austin), very punctual and fast ( the fumigation team). Everything was very clean after both activities. Dave, the inspection agent impressed by knowledge and great advice. Actually I have just great words of the entire team that helped us with this process! Thank you very much! Highly recommended

 Verified Cura is a great company, especially Armando.  He serviced my home while I was on a business trip.  He listened to my instructions regarding locking and unlocking the side gates.  He made sure all gates were closed when done.  Great communication, Armando contacted me prior to showing up and once he was finished. Definitely recommend!
