Hero Canines Expose Washington Bed Bug Plot

    WASHINGTON, DC, June 06, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Don't judge a book by its cover, or a bed by its covers for that matter. Regardless of how clean a bedroom might look, it could be infested with bed bugs. DC homes, hotels, hospitals, and schools have all had reports of bed bugs in the past. In fact, bed bugs will quietly feed on human blood anywhere that people sleep.

Their initial bites are often painless, allowing bed bugs to feed undetected at night, and go back into their safe hiding place by morning. In DC, bed bugs are great at hiding in any small crevice they can find, making visually inspecting for bed bugs relatively futile.

More than the Eye Can See
After conducting initial visual bed bug inspections throughout the metropolitan area, Connor's Pest Protection's trained service technicians have called in reinforcements. Teaming with Connor's, K-9 Pest Detection unleashed the hounds to help sniff out the bed bugs in DC.

DC's canine saviors are certified and trained to find bed bugs. Inspection dogs detect odors 10,000 times better than humans. Unlike humans, they can detect live bed bugs and viable bed bug eggs - they're even trained to ignore dead bed bugs. These canines' precision saves money and limits disrupting the home by allowing the treatment to be strictly focused on the problem areas.

Once the source of the bed bug infestation is found, bed bug experts recommend professional heat treatments. Composed of 95% water, the bed bug - DC homeowners will be happy to hear - and its eggs are very sensitive to heat. To eradicate the infestation in an environmentally friendly way, bed bug pros apply a precise level of extreme heat.

The DC Bed Bug Battle is Far From Over
The bed bug, DC's elusive villain for quite some time, has met its match. The tactile canines of K-9 Pest Detection are working overtime to keep DC's beds safe. They promise to continue the fight against bed bugs in the DC area until they prevail.

After a long day on the job, the dogs are reported to have relaxed with tennis balls, chew toys, and full bowls of lamb-and-chicken-based dry food.
