Ouch! Something bit me. What’s that?
We often experience a pinch while sleeping at home or hotels very badly. A pinch that can turn out to be a night mare and when looked at, your body will be brutally kissed by an insect leaving a red mark all over. When a reddish brown pest with a flat, oval body passes underneath your bed, understand that you have been attacked by Bed bug.
Bed bugs do not really care for your ‘No entry’ board
Bed bugs can enter your home in many possible ways and most of the times, when you had stayed in a Bed bug infested area and while moving, through your luggage, clothes or furniture, they will enter your Home. Occasionally, bats and birds introduce Bed bugs.
Bed bugs like warm atmosphere and they are known to be found in a place where many people sleep, such as hotels or dormitory. Their most favorite place to hide is bed frame, mattress, and box spring. Blessed with flattened body, they can hide out in cracks within a room and furniture, and no wonder if you find them entering laptops, DSL ports which are portable and you obviously carry around to other rooms and houses.
What next? How do you stop them?
- Before unpacking your luggage after the trip, check for Bedbugs. Do not put luggage on bed instead use suitcase holder if provided and until you inspect the room, let your luggage be outside.
- Keep your laundry separate in the plastic bag and put them directly in the washer so that bugs will not escape. If you suspect that there are bed bugs hided in your clothes, undress them on hard surface rather than on carpet and then wipe off the floor to capture the bugs if any.
- Once you unpack the things from your bag, make sure you wash it in the hot water and scrub hardly so that any bugs hided in the seams and folds are treated well.
- Preferably when you bring used furniture to your home, check for crevices, cracks and other embellishments. Never bring home used mattresses.
