Bed bugs are always in the news these days. They can infest your home, office, hotel, and more. They spread very easily and can cause a great deal of stress and discomfort. They can also become quite expensive if you have to fumigate your home and potentially others if you live in an apartment complex. If you live in the Minnesota area, take the precaution of checking www.bedbugregistry.com first before staying at any hotel to save yourself the irritation both physically and financially.
The Most Common Bed Bug Complaints:
- Itchy, Irritation, Swelling
- Spreading To Others Quickly
- Cost For Fumigation
- Roadways Flooded
Bed bugs are attracted to blood, not dirt or filth. They are a parasite that feeds on humans and even animal blood. So, pets can bring them in as well. You can transport them to your home if you pick them up while staying at a hotel. Check your bedding for spots of blood; if you see that, you most likely have an infestation.
