The "Bed Bug Epidemic"
Even those living under a rock have heard of what many experts and government officials are calling the "bed bug epidemic." Bed bugs have reemerged and are a large problem across the United States. The reemergence is primarily attributed to increasing movement of goods and people. For this reason bed bugs are often seen in hotels, vacation homes, and temporary housing. Unfortunately, bed bugs travel easily and make it into residential homes and even businesses by hitching a ride on luggage or used furniture. And bed bugs don't just affect big cities - they have become a problem throughout the Triad as well. Click the link below to see a local news story on bed bugs in the Triad.
Wondering If You Have Bed Bugs?
Bed bugs have not been shown to transmit diseases. But they do feed on the blood of their hosts, inserting mouthparts into the host's skin and sucking the blood. Their salivary fluid can produce an allergic reaction for some people and may cause red marks, swelling, itching, and irritation.
Bed Bugs are small brownish-red insects that range from approximately 6 to 9 mm in length. Evidence of a bed bug infestation can include the insects themselves, eggs and egg casings, and/or blood and fecal stains on your mattress or sheets.
Although their name suggests that they only live in bedding, bed bugs can also be found in furniture, carpeting, baseboards, curtains, clutter, and many other cracks and crevices around the home. A thorough inspection of your home is critical in determining if you have an infestation and, if so, the size of the infestation.

Ways to Prevent a Bed Bug Infestation in Your Home
The only way to prevent bed bugs from invading your home is to never bring them home with you. No matter the price point of the hotels and vacation homes you stay in, it is important to take steps to prevent bringing home bed bugs:
- Before you even start unpacking, inspect your room upon arrival, paying careful attention to the headboard, mattress and dressers.
- Store your luggage off the floor during your stay.
- Carefully inspect your luggage before bringing it back into your home. You can vacuum out your suitcase and wash your clothing as well.
- Be wary of purchasing used furniture and NEVER pick up furniture from the side of the road.
