Bed bugs are stressful, but having them doesn't mean your home is dirty. They're hitchhikers that travel in on luggage, bags, clothing, and secondhand furniture, and anyone can pick them up. On Cape Cod, with its steady flow of summer visitors and vacation rentals, they turn up most in the warm months. Our trained technicians inspect, confirm, and treat bed bug problems methodically and discreetly. Cape Cod Mosquito Squad is locally owned and operated, serving Cape Cod since 2014 and fully licensed in Massachusetts (License AL-0054568).
Bed bug control is one of several pest control services we offer across the Cape.
Bed bugs are small, flat, and reddish-brown, and they hide close to where people sleep. Look for:
▸ Small bites, often in a line or cluster, on skin exposed while sleeping
▸ Rust- or blood-colored spots on sheets and mattress seams
▸ Dark specks (droppings) along seams, tags, and headboards
▸ Shed skins or live bugs tucked into mattress seams and box springs

Bed bugs don't come from the yard. They travel. They hitch a ride home from hotels, rentals, and trips in luggage and clothing, or arrive on secondhand furniture and mattresses. On the Cape, travel and vacation rentals move luggage and guests from home to home, which is one way bed bugs spread. An established infestation indoors doesn't go away on its own, so waiting is not a plan. Bed bugs reproduce, so a small problem grows if it's left alone.
Bed bugs hide in tight cracks and seams, which is why a methodical inspection matters. That's why a professional, methodical approach matters. Our trained technicians start with a careful inspection to confirm the problem and map where the bugs are hiding, including mattresses, box springs, frames, baseboards, and nearby furniture, with follow-up as needed to reach bugs and eggs missed the first time.
We use EPA-registered products applied by trained technicians per label instructions. These products are non-toxic and environmentally protective. We also use 3 natural products for those who want an alternative approach.
We'll also give you clear preparation steps, such as laundering and bagging bedding, reducing clutter, and pulling furniture away from walls, which make treatment more effective.
When you travel, check the mattress seams and headboard before unpacking, and keep luggage off the bed and floor on a hard rack. Inspect secondhand furniture and mattresses closely before bringing them inside, and be extra careful with anything picked up curbside.
We help homeowners and rental owners across the Cape, including Barnstable, Bourne, Brewster, Chatham, Dennis, Eastham, Falmouth, Harwich, Mashpee, Orleans, Provincetown, Sandwich, Truro, Wellfleet, and Yarmouth.
