Bed Bugs Information

Like mosquitoes, bed bugsbite people and drink a blood meal.Unlike mosquitoes, they are not known to transmit any human diseases.They can, however, causeitching, skin rashes, anddistress.

Bed bugs spread as people carry them into their homes, often in infested luggage, clothing, used furniture, or bedding.

Bedbugs can show up in anyones home, school or business. But in general, multi-unit housing is a more common place for a bed bug infestation, such as hotels, dorms, shelters and apartments. Infestations usually are not because ofbad housekeeping.

While any resident can be affected by bed bugs, the greatest impact is often felt by people with the least resources to deal with the problem, which can take a lot of time and money.

The City of Columbus is part of the Central Ohio Bed Bug Task. It includes local governments, health departments, social service agencies, pest control applicators, landlord and tenants rights groups, fire departments, the Ohio Departments of Agriculture, Commerce, Health, and the Ohio State University Extension. Our goal is to prevent bed bug infestations through education and serve as a resource to those struggling with an infestation. More information atwww.centralohiobedbugs.org
