Health Canada warns about bedbug products after 2 Alberta children die

Posted on March 9, 2015 by admin Click Here For Article

Health Minister Rona Ambrose in the House of Commons on Jan. 28, 2013, in Ottawa. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Adrian Wyld

The federal government is warning Canadians of what it calls the extreme danger of using unregistered products to fight bedbugs.

The Health Canada warning comes after two children from northern Alberta died from a toxic insecticide thought to be aluminum phosphide brought back by the family from Pakistan.

Health Minister Rona Ambrose expressed her condolences to the family, who was attending the funeral of son Zia, 2 on Friday. His eight-month-old sister died Sunday.

Its a really tragic situation and this is a product that in terms of how its regulated, is not supposed to be used in homes ever, Ambrose said in Calgary.

Its a very dangerous pesticide and it needs to be used by people who are trained to use it.

Health Canada said aluminum phosphide is highly toxic to people and animals.

The department said it can only be sold to people with special training and is not approved for use on bedbugs.

It is not clear how the family managed to bring the pesticide into Canada.

Health Canada says people can legally import small amounts of chemical pest control products not registered in Canada for their personal use, but the rules are aimed at products such as insect repellent.

BED BUGS – Review of Victoria Inn, Winnipeg, Manitoba …

Posted on March 3, 2015 by admin Click Here For Article

Dear Bed Bug: We recognize that this issue is a potential problem every day, and do take it very serious. We as consumers have to remember that a Hotel itself does not have bedbugs; it unfortunately is brought to the hotel by a guest, either through their luggage or cloths. The bigger concern as travellers is how the hotel you are staying in handles this issue should it arise. Our Hotel procedure is to immediately place a room suspected of a problem out of service. The rooms immediately beside and across the hall from the suspect room are also placed out of service. Professionals are called in to evaluate the rooms and confirm or deny the presence. In a case of negative to the problem, further precaution is taken by the suspected room remaining out of service for additional days and then is it reassessed. In a positive case a room will be treated chemically and also baked at 140 degrees to eradicate the issue completely. Unfortunately every small bug or beetle these days is a Bedbug in the eyes of a guest. Regardless whenever there is a suspected case of the bug we do the most responsible thing we can do for the comfort and safety of our guests. Anyone who reads the news today can hardly go a week without hearing a story of the rising issue of bed bugs. This is a problem that is addressing everyone in every industry, from apartments to movie theatres, airlines to hotels.

In addition we would like to comment this was not a confirmed case.

Fighting Bed Bugs in Qubec

Unfortunately, the crown gem of French Canada is not immune to Bed Bugs. Every year, hundreds of tourists visit the old city, a UNESCO World Legacy Site, and take part in the many winter festivals. But tourism can also bring bed bugs into your home or your business! From a small bed and breakfast to 5 star hotels, no one can predict where Bed Bugs will come from next. Thats why you need fast and accurate inspections.

Bed bugs are common household pests in many parts of the world. Because of their rapid development and ability to reproduce in large numbers in a short time, it is important to know when they are present. Skin irritation caused by bites is just one symptom of infestation. Other signs need to be identified in any place where bed bugs might be breeding. They can inhabit spaces within or below a mattress, but might also be found in old clothing, bedding and padded furniture. Any of these will provide a suitable habitat for bed bugs for as long as there are humans around to feed on.

K9 teams are able to scan rooms in a matter of minutes. This saves your time and money so you can get back to your business or family. In comparison, visual inspections can take hours. Our experts can quickly determine whether you have an infestation and its severity with extreme accuracy.
