Bed Bug Report for Keylime Cove, Gurnee, IL

I know it sounds super dramatic, but after having to deal with bed bugs personally 5 years ago(moved out of a apt building because they didnt try and get rid of them they just covered it up), and being in a field where a lot of the clients I help are homeless and I try and find them safe clean living spaces which most have bed bugs, it's scary and horrible for me to deal with this on a mini vacation!!

My son and I met my boyfriend and his son at a birthday party 7 months ago and we've been d

ating for the last 6 months. We had so much fun at the birthday party I thought what a great idea for us all to come back to this place to celebrate our 6 months of being in each other's lives grown up and kid fun all in one place. We took off work and had my son take a day off school to take the hour and half drive to key lime.

Fast forward to 1230am we finally tired everyone out and decided to play cards on the bed next to the sleeping boys, who went to sleep so excited about waking up to spending the day swimming and doing some fun crafts we read about! Only to notice a little bug crawling towards my son, which ended up being a bed bug we couldn't squish!!! We took a pic and looked it up online and found out for sure it was a bed bug after. Then looked at the other bed and sure enough once we took the sheets off there were more on top of the mattress in the corners!!

My boyfriend called the front and they said they would move us next door, if anyone know how bed bugs travel, how they can be in the walls, moving us next door is not putting a barrier between us and the bed bugs, they travel and travel fast that's why it's become such a huge problem. I called room service back and explained that and the lady I talked to said she knows but she could move us to a suite on another floor!!! If you've dealt with bed bugs or understand them it's hard to have a good nights sleep thinking they might be biting you and your children while you sleep I let them know I wasn't comfortable with that and they said they can't refund my money until after a investigation, which ok kind of annoying since I'm working part time right now to take care of my son, but what can I do about it? And at this point I just wanted to get out I was tired the boys didn't know what was going on, and then the phone rings, I'm thinking oh maybe they figured out something or are apologizing, but no. They were just calling to say the open charge on my card was being closed and they were charging me the 49 and change for the package I bought that we didn't even get to use because we were going to spend today using it!!!

I really hope that they take this seriously because it's not right knowing about this problem and still letting families come just to spread bed bugs. Once you have bed bugs they can get everywhere and it's not a nice feeling knowing every night when you go to bed they are going to come out because they are attracted to the gas we breath out. I'm so dispappointed in key lime cove and so sad that my boys couldn't enjoy there day off like we planned, however being a parent you know the show must go on, so even though I'm out that money which I worked hard to save for them, we will figure out something else to do.

One last thing I'm 29 and since I started working when I was 15 the main part of any job I've had has been customer service and I pride myself in giving good customer service I enjoy making someone's day, and I get so disappointed when I see and/or receive poor customer service, and this was defiantly a disappoint.

Bed Bug Treatment | Clark Pest Control

Youve got bed bugs? Weve got answers.

According to the news, bed bugs are everywhere.

Click onto a news website, watch the news on TV or pick up a newspaper, and youre likely to see or hear a message delivered in tones that are fraught with fear: Bed bugs are back! Theyre everywhere! What can we do?

The funny thing is, for several decades when parents would put the kids to bed, they would say things like Sleep tight, and dont let the bed bugs bite. Aside from entomologists and pest professionals, very few people knew what bed bugs were, or if they even existed. Today, we all know. These appleseed-sized, blood-sucking insects have come roaring back, and people are worried frightened, even.

Bed bugs (Cimex lectularius) largely disappeared from developed parts of the world in the 1940s, mostly because pesticides knocked them out. Since then, two things happened: Bed bugs, over time, acquired a resistance to pesticides, and international travel made it possible for bed bugs to hitchhike from parts of the world where they had not been eradicated to here in America.

Bed Bugs are excellent hitchhikers, too. Not only can they travel around the world, but theyre very good at moving from place to place from a hotel room to your bedroom, or from that used piece of furniture you picked up at a garage sale to the rest of your house. Once bed bugs get inside your home, they begin multiplying; one female bed bug will lay one to five eggs a day, or an average of 120 eggs in its life. Upon hatching, those juvenile bugs, or nymphs, will reach adulthood in three weeks, seeking out blood meals from you and your family, while youre sleeping, by zeroing in on the carbon dioxide you exhale and laying eggs, lots of them. Even without doing the math, its easy to see how this can turn into a big problem in short order.

Bed bugs? Just say, Clark, we need you!

Fortunately, theres a solution for your bed bug problems. Clark Pest Control has a highly trained force of technicians armed with the knowledge, skill, tools, and determination to restore your peace of mind around bed bugs. We begin with a meticulous inspection of your premises. We look everywhere that bed bugs might be lurking. Once we find bed bugs or evidence of their activity such as cast-off skins from molts, or blood spotting on mattresses well bring our arsenal of anti-bed bug weapons to bear on the target pest and all of its hideouts, so that you can sleep soundly again.

Youve heard that old saying, If you cant stand the heat, get out of the kitchen? Bed bugs cant stand the heat specifically once it rises above 120o F. Clark technicians will bring industrial powered heaters that will raise the temperature, room by room, enough to kill bed bugs and their eggs. Before we bring the heat, well make sure that everything that needs to be exposed to heat is opened up or positioned properly so that treatment will be most effective, turning a room upside down to ensure the heat goes where it needs to go. Our strategically placed heating units will be monitored continuously to make sure the room is hot enough to finish the job, and well have someone on-site to make sure the job is performed correctly. After we complete the service, we can provide documentation that will show exactly what actions we took.

Another option for treating bed bug infestations is by directing hot vapors, or steam, on or into wherever bed bugs and their eggs might be lurking. Our technicians will take great pains to treat every surface, cranny, crack and crevice with bed bug-destroying steam, making sure that no bed, piece of furniture or other object in a targeted room is left untreated.

Sometimes the most effective bed bug control can be achieved using specially selected materials that will have a residual, or longer-lasting, effect. These products may come in the form of applied liquids or dusts, and will be judiciously employed with you and your family kept foremost in mind.

A bed bug infestation may be serious enough to consider a tented fumigation Treatment. If thats the case, Clark Pest Control will oversee the work of a licensed fumigator to make sure that effective control of the infestation is achieved.

Some people would prefer to have their homes, businesses or properties monitored for bed bug activity on a regular basis. Clark Pest Control offers an inspection service where well come out periodically and go over your premises with Sherlock Holmes attention to detail, so that any bed bug activity is caught and treated before it can develop into a serious infestation.

Any of these treatment options can be used independently, or in combination with any other treatments.
