How to Protect Against Bed Bugs When You Travel
In the past two decades, bed bug presence has been on the rise. This trend may be fueled by increased global travel and urbanization as bed bugs thrive in areas of concentrated population. So the question is… how can you protect yourself while enjoying that much-needed cruise?
- Check the reviews on where you will be staying
- Do your own inspection of the room upon arrival – look for signs under the sheets, in the corners, etc
- Keep your belongings up off the floor and do not use provided dressers
- Thoroughly wash all your clothing after returning home (don’t forget about your luggage and shoes)
- Keep your mattress and box spring at home protected with a bed bug grade encasement
Signs of a Bed Bug Infestation
- Small blood smears on sheets, mattress, couch, or carpets
- Fecal matter in crevices of the mattress, in cracks of bed-frame or furniture, in corners of carpeting, and behind electrical outlet covers
- A musty odor coming from your sheets
- Bed bug casings
How to Prepare for a Bed Bug Removal
DO:
- Launder all cloth items in the rooms affected – bedding (including bed skirts), curtains, and even the clean clothing in your closet or dresser
- Have all non-fabric items available to be inspected
- Thoroughly vacuum and dispose of the bag outdoors (do not use a bag-less vacuum as bed bugs can harbor in the cracks and crevices)
DON’T:
- Return any of the clean linens into the affected rooms
- Start sleeping in a different room before thoroughly laundering everything to limit the possibility of spreading the infestation.
- Self treat as it can hinder the effectiveness of the professional treatment
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I prevent future bed bug infestations?
Yes. Our experts provide advice on preventing bed bugs, including checking second-hand furniture, using encasements, and maintaining proper cleaning and monitoring practices.
Do bed bugs only infest certain types of homes?
No! Bed bugs don’t care whether you live in a studio apartment or a historic mansion—they only need a host. Any home can be at risk.
How do I know if I have bed bugs?
Common signs include bites on your skin, small blood spots on your sheets, or seeing the bugs themselves. If you suspect an infestation, it’s best to call our Denver bed bug exterminators for a thorough inspection.
How effective is professional bed bug treatment?
Our team uses the latest chemical and physical treatment methods to target hot spots and ensure long-term results. With follow-up inspections, we can reliably eliminate bed bugs from your home.
Do you offer heat treatments?
No, we do not, as heat treatments can drive bed bugs into harborage and only kill the ones that come in contact with the heat at the time of treatment. Instead, we use a combination of standard insecticides and biological products that work to continue providing bed bug protection.
