Bed bugs are small and oval in shape ranging in size from 5 to 7 mm. They are reddish brown (more red after feeding on blood) and with their flat body, bed bugs are commonly mistaken for ticks or small cockroaches. Although bed bugs do have wings they cannot fly.

Yes! Unfortunately bed bugs are more active at night when we are usually sleeping in our beds. And yes, they tend to bite exposed skin, although bed bug bites are painless and do not need treatment.

Avon Pest Control, a Surrey based exterminator, has launched a new report on the importance of being ready for pests in the summer months. The top three pests include ants, wasps and bed bugs.

Surrey, Canada May 21, 2017 /PressCable/

A British Columbia pest control company has launched a new report on dealing with the three most common pests in metro Vancouver BC. Summer is a popular season in the area, but because of the drier weather, its also popular for pests. Some of these can be destructive to property and people, and some are even dangerous to those with sting allergies.

More information can be found at: http://avonpestcontrol.ca.

Avon Pest Control has established itself as one of the most respected and fastest growing pest management and consulting companies in metro Vancouver. It prides itself on its high levels of service, and strives to offer the best in advanced pest control technology.

This helps to ensure that local residents can live safe in the knowledge that they have experts on hand to help if pests strike around their home. The company has been providing cutting edge pest control services for the last eight years, and uses various methods to solve and prevent problems.

The company explains that the top three pests in the area during summer are ants, wasps and bedbugs. There are some species, like carpenter ants, which can be highly destructive to buildings, and its important for residents to prepare for these pests in the warmer weather.

Dr Garry Mann, the owner of Avon Pest Control, explains that the request the company gets the most is for these three types of pets. There are six or seven different species of ants in BC, but the carpenter ants are especially bad and can damage the structure of residential and commercial buildings.

Wasps love the warmer weather, and nest and reproduce in Spring. This means they are more likely to be seen flying around the area, and anyone who is allergic to their sting can be in danger.

In addition to this, bed bugs, although they are problem all year round, tend to increase in the summer months.

Bed bugs dont discriminate, making homes in one-star and even five-star hotels. And if those bloodsuckers get into your luggage, theyll even come home with you and move in. But there are some simple things you can do to keep the critters away during your next hotel stay.

Consumer reviews on sites like TripAdvisor have some real horror stories. You can find headlines that warn about bed bugs at many hotels around the globe.

Thats why its important to take some simple steps when you check-in to help avoid any bed bug hassles and expenses when you check out.

It might sound extreme, but to be safe, put your luggage in the bathroom as soon as you enter the hotel room.

Bed bugs prefer anything dark and creviced that they can hide in like bedding, seams of fabric, furniture, even inside walls, so the bathroom is usually a the safe zone while you search the room for signs of critters, said Dan DiClerico with Consumer Reports.

Check the sheets, mattress and box spring for any signs of bed bugs. Look for dark, rust colored spots and exoskeletons, the casings the bugs leave behind. Dont forget to look at the head of the bed and in, around and behind the headboard too.

Be sure to lift and check under the mattress. It's important to take action if you do find anything suspicious.

If you find any signs of bed bugs alert the manager immediately and ask for a new room in a different part of the hotel. Infestations can spread from wall to wall, explained DiClerico.

Even if your room is clear it's a good idea to keep your luggage and clothes off the floor on a hard surface or luggage rack, clear of any potential bed bug zones.

If you're concerned about hitchhikers coming home with you, you can avoid bringing them into your house by throwing all of your clothes into a hot dryer for 30 minutes. And store empty luggage in your basement, garage or a hot attic.

Pest threat

Ants and mice are moving inside and wildlife may be looking for potential harbourage areas. Spiders are constructing egg sacs and mosquito activity is increasing. House fly activity can be expected. Commercial accounts will need to be aware of increased small fly activity. Nuisance wildlife, such as squirrels and chipmunks, will be much more noticeable.

Home Bed Bugs Preventing Bed Bugs While Travelling

Everyone knows the saying, Good night, sleep tight, dont let the bed bugs bite. It has never been more true than it is now.

Bed bugs are extremely efficient hitch hikers. They can move easily across a room and climb onto luggage or anything left on a bed in just one night. Hotels are perfect homes for bed bugs because of the ready supply of fresh hosts to feed on, and the difficulty of sustaining bed bug control in such facilities over the long-term.

Upon arrival always inspect your hotel room. Travellers should look for live insects, blood stains, dead bugs and eggs throughout the room. Bed bugs are not a sanitation or cleanliness issue. This means bed bugs can be found in any hotel or motel from a one-star all the way up to a five-star location. What signs should you look for? With any large infestation of bed bugs you will notice a sweet, musty, odour, similar to soda pop syrup. Bed bugs will leave small brown or red spots on the sheets.

Bed bugs usually hide in close proximity to their food source you! Bed bugs are nocturnal insects and disappear into the crevices of mattresses (pay particular attention to the seams and crevasses), box springs, sheets, furniture, upholstery and hollow bedposts during the day. Other hiding spots include behind baseboards or pictures and even in any wallpaper that might be cracked or torn. You can lift and look around all these possible hiding spots in order to check for bed bugs in a hotel room.

Make sure to elevate your luggage and any other personal items. Always inspect the luggage rack carefully for any signs of bed bugs. If it appears free of bed bug signs use it to keep your suitcase off the floor and away from the bed. Moving the luggage rack away from the wall will help reduce the risk of bed bugs crawling up the wall and into your belongings.

When you are packing to check out always examine your luggage to make sure you have not picked up any unwelcome guests. Since bed bugs are such great hitch hikers be sure to check your luggage and clothing upon your return home. Many recommend unpacking and checking in your garage or utility room.

When you return home, leave your luggage in the garage, and immediately launder all cloth items. The first places bed bugs typically encounter are bags and suitcases so keeping your luggage outside may help keep them out of your home. Depending on where you live, keeping luggage outdoors may also leave bed bugs outside their comfortable range of temperatures. You can also eliminate bed bugs that may have gotten into clothing by laundering (washing and drying) all fabric items in hot water, although recent studies show that 20 minutes in a clothes dryer is all that is needed to ensure 100% control.

Efficiently treating and detecting for a bed bug infestation requires the use of a licensed, professional Pest Control Operator with specific experience dealing with these pests. No one has more experience than Orkin Canada so call today and schedule a bed bug inspection.
