Use a combination of monitoring methods over several weeks.

• Place interceptors on bed legs and check for trapped insects.
• Inspect common hiding spots with a flashlight and magnifier if available.
• Look for new cast skins, tiny dark spots (fecal stains), or live bugs.

Continue monitoring and follow up with your pest professional if signs return.

Bed bugs can survive several months without feeding, though many live closer to 5–6 weeks under typical home conditions. Factors like temperature, humidity, and life stage influence their survival time.

Bed bugs are primarily nocturnal and prefer to feed at night. However, they can become active during the day if hungry, crowded, or if their nighttime host schedule changes.

After travel, check luggage and nearby areas for bed bug signs such as tiny brown spots (fecal marks), pale shed skins, small eggs or eggshells, and live or flattened bugs. Early detection can help prevent establishing an infestation in your home.
