Bed Bug Lights…what are they used for? The best bed bug lamp will allow you to see bed bugs at night. They’ll allow you to perform an inspection on the mattress and box spring. A bed bug light will help you when it comes to inspecting a futon, couch or chair. While many of us don’t sleep in our beds, we still want to be sure that when we fold out our sofa into a bed we don’t have any unwanted guests hiding in between the cushions. Bed bugs are causing an epidemic in the U.S. Bed bug lights are a new technique that are being used to help exterminators identify bed bug eggs, bed bug feces, and bed bug nests while they conduct their inspections. Bed Bug Lights were designed to enable exterminators to visually see where bed bugs may be hiding when conducting a visual inspection of areas in apartments, houses, and commercial locations where bed bugs may be infesting.

Bed Bug Lights

What is a bed bug light?

Bed bug lights are a convenient way to detect and identify bed bugs, as well as their eggs. There are two different types of bed bug lights, black light and ultraviolet (UV) light.

Black Light: Black lights emit a wavelength of light that is not visible by the naked eye. When used in conjunction with a magnifying glass or other viewing device, it will reveal whether there are any signs of bed bugs on your mattress or furniture. UV Light: UV lamps emit wavelengths between 280nm to 400nm; this type of radiation is invisible to humans but can cause fluorescence in certain materials such as organic dyes (e.g., fabrics dyed with indigo). The UV lamp emits short bursts of intense ultraviolet radiation that cause some objects or materials to glow under its beam–this phenomenon is known as “fluorescence.”

Why should I buy a bed bug light?

If you’re reading this, it’s likely that you’ve already been bitten by the bed bug bite. If so, then congratulations! You have officially joined the ranks of those who have had the misfortune to experience what some consider one of humankind’s greatest pestilences. While we here at [company name] would like nothing more than to erase all traces of these parasites from existence, unfortunately we cannot.

We can however provide you with an excellent solution: our high-quality bed bug lights and traps. Both are deceptively simple in design and operation but they’re guaranteed to eradicate any trace of these pests before they can do serious damage to your home or business.

Although it may seem like a relatively simple piece of equipment at first glance—and indeed it is—there are many factors that must be considered when choosing which light is right for your needs: location preference (wall mounted vs free standing), type (fluorescent vs LED) and power supply (plug-in vs battery). These considerations will help ensure that no matter where you put your unit or how much room there is available for it (or lack thereof), it will work effectively every time without fail.

Which one should I buy?

The truth is, any light will help in your battle against bedbugs. The more powerful the light, the better. When it comes to choosing a specific type of lamp, though, you’ll have to consider how often you’re going to use it and what special features (like USB charging) are important to you.

UV lights are by far the most common type of bedbug light because they kill the insects instantly without causing them any harm or discomfort. However, they do require a lot of direct contact with your mattress before doing their job—which isn’t always possible when dealing with larger infestations or if your mattress has multiple mattresses stacked on top of each other. We recommend using an LED spotter first since they’re portable and easy-to-use in any situation—but if that doesn’t work for whatever reason (or just doesn’t seem like enough) then definitely go with an UV bedbug killer like this one from Black Flag!

There are some lights you can use to see bed bugs that you might not be aware of.

• Ultraviolet (UV) light is a type of “black light” that has been used for many years to detect particular substances.
• Ultraviolet lights have the ability to show you what bed bugs look like, but they can also be used for other things as well, such as finding leaks in pipes or electrical problems.
• When using UV lights to search for bed bugs, it’s important that the light be bright enough so that it will cover all areas around your home and office.
