Bed bugs are pests which make their home in your bed. Bed bugs are also known hitchhikers and they can live anywhere. Are you scared of these pests yet? Bed bug in bathroom sink- You never know where you might find these pests especially when you’re on a vacation but having them found inside the bathroom sink is pretty gross to say the least. Bed bugs are an unwelcome shock, and nothing is as unnerving as discovering them in your bathroom. Most bathrooms are the cleanest room in the house, so if bed bugs take up residence there you can probably be certain they will spread to other rooms. So what causes bedbugs in your bathroom? It is unfortunate when you have a home infestation of bed bugs and you have to endure the misery of these pests. The best advice I can offer is to call your local exterminator for help, but in the meantime you need to find strategies for dealing with this problem.
Bed Bug In Bathroom Sink
Bedbugs in the bathroom
Bedbugs can be a real nuisance, especially if you have them in your home. They are small and flat, reddish brown and feed on blood. Bed bugs are not dangerous to humans, but they can be annoying to deal with because of their feeding habits. Bedbug bites look like red welts or bumps on the skin that itch and swell up.
Bed bugs hide in mattresses, bedding and furniture so it’s important to inspect these areas for signs of infestation before purchasing used furniture or getting rid of old items that may have been exposed to bedbugs at some point during their lifetime (many years ago).
If you do find evidence that indicates there are bedbugs in your house, contact an exterminator immediately before the problem spreads any further!
What do bedbugs look like?
Bed bugs are reddish brown, flat, oval-shaped pests that are roughly the size of an apple seed. They have a roundish head and six legs. Bed bugs have no wings, so they can’t fly. The nymphs look like smaller versions of the adult bed bug with a white ring around their abdomen forming at their last molt stage before adulthood.
Bed bugs prefer to live in dark cracks and crevices within 10 feet off the ground (e.g., baseboards, beds) but they can be found on other surfaces including chairs and night tables as well as in electrical equipment such as TVs or stereo systems (source).
How do bedbugs spread?
Bedbugs can spread from one place to another by:
- Falling off a host and hiding in clothing, bedding, or luggage
- Crawling into cracks and crevices in furniture, walls, and floors
- Sharing laundry facilities with infested items
How did they end up in my bathroom?
Bathroom sinks are one of the most common places for bed bugs to invade. This is because they’re at a lower height than other rooms, which makes it easier for them to climb up and enter your home. If you have any cracks in the wall or flooring near your bathroom sink, then that’s one more way for them to get inside. For example, if your bathtub doesn’t fit snugly against the wall or if there’s a gap under the doorframe and door, this will give bed bugs an easy entrance into your home.
It’s also possible that someone has brought bed bugs into your house without realizing it—for example, if they traveled on clothing from another country where these pests are prevalent. Bed bugs don’t need food or water once they’ve infested an area so long as their host is alive; you may find them in any room of your house where people spend time resting (like bedrooms) because humans provide heat sources that keep these parasites warm enough during winter months when temperatures drop below freezing outside!
Can they crawl up the drain?
The answer is no. Bed bugs can’t fly, so they can only make their way up drains by crawling. But let’s be clear: there’s zero evidence that indicates this is possible for them to do. The common misconception comes from the fact that bedbugs are often found in bathrooms and kitchens, where there are pipes leading to the outside of your home or apartment building. It makes sense that these tiny parasites might try to crawl up pipes if they’re trying to get inside an apartment building via your drain…but they won’t succeed! The simple fact is that drains don’t allow anything bigger than a toothpick through them (and even then it may take hours), so keep calm and know that even if you have an infestation in your bathroom sink or toilet bowl, rest assured knowing those buggers aren’t going anywhere unless someone opens up their wall or floorboards at some point down the line (and even then it wouldn’t matter because nothing gets through drains).
Don’t tell me how to fix this, just tell me how to NOT get bed bugs in my bathroom!
- Keep your house clean, clutter free and free of food waste.
- Keep your pets clean. If you have a dog or cat, keep their bedding area clean and check them for signs of bites or skin irritation that might be from the bed bugs.
- Don’t let stray animals into your home (like a neighbor’s dog).
- Check your entire house regularly for any signs of infestation; look especially under beds and couches, in closets and drawers, behind electrical outlets, on window sills and baseboards—anywhere that there are crevices where bed bugs can hide during the day!
Bed bugs are gross and can be pretty tough to get rid of.
Bed bugs are gross and can be pretty tough to get rid of. Here are some tips on how to tell if you have bed bugs in your bathroom, how to prevent them from getting into the house, and what to do when they do.
To prevent bed bug infestation:
- Remove clutter from the floor and keep it cleaned up.
- Vacuum regularly (weekly). Use a vacuum cleaner that has a HEPA filter bag; this will help reduce any chance of spreading them through the air while cleaning. Make sure that all surfaces are dusted with diatomaceous earth or something similar between each use as well as before storing away items like shoes or clothing which may hold eggs on their surface from past infestations elsewhere in the home; these areas should also be cleaned weekly with a damp cloth or sponge soaked in warm water mixed with household bleach (1 teaspoon per gallon) if possible, otherwise just use soap and water instead for less frequent cleanings if needed -you’ll have enough cleaning up every day already!
