Not too long ago people really thought that bedbugs were a myth. Others believe that they were pests living in underdeveloped countries. Now there are reality once again. It's world travel that has changed everything, bringing these pests back to North America. Infestations are occurring in some of the most unbelievable places, and many don't know how to treat them. One of the top ways to eradicate them is through the use of a bed bug dog, that helps with the entire process.
It's unfortunate, but Boston, MA citizens aren't spared of this nightmare. Many of its top hotels are accommodating them, as are some residential upscale neighborhoods. No one is immune. The problem is that they can be anywhere, and as such, they can be carried to the next place. It's important to be cautious, to minimize the risk of helping their spread.
Start by inspecting the accommodations before placing down personal items. Check for signs of such a pest infestation by inspecting the headboard of the bed, as well as mattress seams. Look around the bed, and nearby items, like nightstands and lamps.
Avoid using the drawers supplied in hotel rooms, and instead keep personal items within the suitcase. Place the suitcase on the luggage rack. Upon returning, do not bring the suitcase back indoors. Instead, remove the clothing and personal items and carefully inspect them. Use the hottest possible setting on the washer and dryer to clean clothes, which will ultimately kill any bedbugs. Keep in mind these pests are small, so they can be passed over quite easily, unless they were in feeding on a host very recently, turning their bodies a reddish brown color.
If they reside in the home, there could be lots of trouble. The infestation can grow easily out of control unless thoroughly treated, and quickly so. The canine specialized in this field will sniff out these pests so that they can be successfully eradicated. The dog is one part of the overall extermination plan.
These specialty dogs lead the exterminator to their hiding spots. From there, along with the client, a treatment could be followed for the best results. Bringing in a canine like this can be a costly endeavor, but it can give people peace of mind, and more restful sleep.
Eradicating them will, unfortunately be a long and trying process. They are masters in hiding, and can live without resources for some time. Plus, their size enables them to get into the smallest of crevices, so they can be almost anywhere. They can hide in or behind furniture, walls, pillows, mattresses, and between cracks in hardwood floors.
Remember their preference for proximity to the bed. As they are active at night, when humans and pets sleep, they feed on their host. They pose no risk to one's health, but their bites usually leave a rash and cause discomfort, which can interfere with sleep. The important thing is to understand what they can do, and how easily they can be brought home, so be cautious. For instance, avoid picking up curbside discarded furniture and items, which may be infested with these pests.
