Bed bugs are small, flat, reddish-brown insects that measure about 4-5mm in length. Their oval-shaped bodies make it easy for them to hide in crevices and seams. These nocturnal pests feed on blood, primarily targeting humans and animals at night.
A bed bug’s lifecycle begins as an egg, which hatches into a nymph before maturing into an adult. Nymphs require a blood meal to progress through each stage of development. Under favourable conditions, bed bugs can multiply rapidly, with females laying up to five eggs daily.
Singapore’s warm, humid climate creates the perfect environment for bed bugs to thrive. They often infest mattresses, bed frames, furniture, and even electrical outlets. What’s more, bed bugs can survive months without feeding, making them particularly resilient.
Understanding their behaviour, habitat, and biology is the first step toward effective bed bug pest control. Recognising the signs early can prevent infestations from worsening and reduce the impact on your home or business.

Engaged First Choice pest control services when we first realised a bedbug infestation in 1 of the bedroom 2 weeks back. There were eggs, adults, baby bedbugs on 1 of the beds and despite efforts to throw all out those beddings that showed signs of any alive bedbugs, we still see a few. Called and Samuel attended to me, he was very detailed and gave me good advice. Followed up with the service by his technicians and they were good. After just 1 session, we did not find anymore bed bugs however to be safe we engaged another session tom to ensure we have truly eliminated all. Adults, babies and eggs that have just hatched. Truly recommend their service as there is no hard selling and they do their job well. Sabrina Wong2024-01-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This place is GODSENT. Haven’t had a single roach issue since the first one 3 years ago when we moved in after consulting First Choice. We live on a very low floor by the way. Glad to have met Sam as well, very friendly & professional and really knows his stuff! No regrets (unless ur a roach sympathiser) Dolly Teo2023-12-27Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am glad that I have engaged them.
