How to Identify Common Household Insect Eggs
1. Bed Bug Eggs
What Garfield residents should look for:
- 1mm long (about the size of a pinhead)
- Pearly white color (darken as they mature)
- Found in mattress seams, headboards, and furniture joints
- Sticky texture that adheres to surfaces
Danger: Each female can lay 200-500 eggs in her lifetime, leading to rapid infestations in Garfield multi-family homes.
2. Cockroach Eggs (Oothecae)
Common in Garfield kitchens and basements:
- Brown, pill-shaped cases 5-10mm long
- German cockroaches carry cases until hatching
- American cockroaches deposit cases in hidden areas
- Each case contains 16-50 eggs depending on species
Local Note: We frequently find German cockroach eggs in Garfield restaurant inspections.
3. Termite Eggs
Silent destroyers in Bergen County homes:
- Tiny (1mm) translucent white eggs
- Found in protected mud tubes or wood galleries
- Queen termites can lay 30,000 eggs per year
- Often mistaken for "insect eggs that look like sawdust"
Warning: Termite damage isn't covered by most homeowners insurance in New Jersey.

FAQ: Insect Egg Identification
What do termite eggs look like?
Termite eggs are tiny (1mm) translucent white ovals, often found in protected mud tubes or wood galleries. They're frequently confused with "insect eggs that look like sawdust" because they're found near frass (termite droppings).
How do I identify bed bug eggs?
Bed bug eggs are 1mm white ovals with a sticky coating that makes them adhere to surfaces. Look for them in mattress seams, headboard crevices, and furniture joints - common hiding spots in Garfield apartments.
Are white insect eggs in my house dangerous?
White eggs could be from bed bugs, fleas, or other pests. While color helps identification, it's best to have a professional inspect as many eggs look similar. Call 973-510-2585 for immediate assistance.
How do I get rid of insect eggs in walls?
Wall-inhabiting pests like termites and carpenter ants require professional treatment. DIY methods often fail because they can't reach the eggs. Our technicians use specialized equipment to treat wall voids effectively.
