Itchy welts that appear in rows or groups, often after sleeping, are the signature many people notice first.

Bed bug treatment
Bed bugs need a thorough treatment, not a guess.
Bed bugs hide in seams, furniture, and baseboards — and they multiply fast. A Plus Pesticide treats the rooms and hiding places where they actually live, with a plan built to break the cycle.
Bed bugs in Jacksonville
Why bed bugs are a treat-it-right problem.
Bed bugs are expert hitchhikers — they travel in luggage, used furniture, and even on clothing, which is why they show up in clean homes with no obvious explanation. Jacksonville's constant travel traffic, tourism, and turn-over rentals keep them circulating.
They are also resilient. Eggs survive many over-the-counter sprays, and a missed harborage restarts the whole population within weeks. Doing the treatment thoroughly the first time is what actually ends the problem.
What to look for
Signs of bed bugs to take seriously.
Rust-colored spots
Small dark or rusty stains on sheets and mattresses come from crushed bugs or their droppings along mattress seams.
Shed skins and eggs
Pale, translucent shells and pearly-white eggs tucked into seams, tufts, and behind headboards.
A sweet, musty smell
A heavier infestation can give a room a distinct sweet or musty odor that was not there before.
Our process
How A Plus handles bed bug service.

02 — Treat thoroughlyTargeted treatment of seams, frames, furniture, baseboards, and crack-and-crevice areas, with prep guidance so the treatment reaches them.
03 — Break the cycleFollow-up visits timed to the egg cycle so newly hatched bugs do not restart the population.
Common questions
Bed bugs questions we hear.
Do bed bugs mean my home is dirty?
No. Bed bugs feed on blood, not dirt, and they arrive by hitchhiking. Clean homes get them just as often — hotels, dorms, and used furniture are the usual routes.
Can I just throw away my mattress?
You can, but it rarely solves the problem — bugs live in the frame, box spring, baseboards, and nearby furniture too. Treatment without replacement usually works better than replacement without treatment.
How long does treatment take to work?
You should see activity drop quickly, but complete elimination depends on follow-up visits that catch the eggs hatching. That schedule is built into our plan.
