Be Aware! Dengue Fever is on the rise in South FL - protect your home against Mosquitos by Scheduling your next spray
When your job requires you travel most of the time and spend nights in hotels, you’ll need to make sure that the bed your sleeping on doesn’t have bed bugs anywhere on it. Unless you’re sure that the hotel management regularly does bed bug extermination West Palm Beach, you’ll need to learn how to find these pests. Here’s your guide to bed bug inspection:
Since bed bugs hide in areas where they feed, start your inspection with the bed by pulling back the bedding to look for fecal stains and blood spots. Next, check the mattress by paying close attention to its underside, the head of the bed, its edges, air-holes, and seams. Do the same thing with the box spring. If you can, try removing the gauze protector on its underside to take a good look inside it with your magnifying glass and flashlight. Don’t forget to check the screw holes, staples, corners, wooden joints, and slats. Bed bugs tend to lay their eggs on wooden slats so be sure to inspect these thoroughly. Once you’re done, check the bed frame and headboard, paying close attention to corners, joints, and backside.
The sofas, recliners, chaise lounges, love seats, easy chairs, and ottomans may be infested. Carefully remove the pillows and cushions and check them piece by piece. Be sure to check the seams, piping, tufts, and zippers. Bed bugs love to lay eggs around zippers too. Next, lift up the skirting to check the underside. Remember to inspect the fabric’s pleats and seam that’s attached to the furniture. Inspect the backside by pulling it away from the wall. If possible, inspect the insides by laying the furniture on its back.
If you find a live bed bug, stop and notify the hotel management so that they can contact O’Hara Pest Control ASAP to execute a bed bug extermination West Palm Beach treatment.
