EnviroMate PRO EP1000 Offers Cutting-Edge Italian Technology At A Lower Cost Without Sacrificing Performance Or Quality

Lake Forest, Illinois (PRWEB) October 01, 2012

Besides endangering human health, another problem with chemicals is that they cant reach bed bugs in every nook and cranny where they hide. A highly toxic chemical called propoxur does work better than most, but the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) banned propoxur for home use in 2007 because the pesticide can damage the central nervous system of children. Other chemicals can irritate the skin and eyesor even cause cancer.

The pristine white PRO EP1000 is a safe, fast, economical remedy that does not involve using toxic chemicals that harm human health. It uses 257F steam vapor instead of chemicals to instantly kill bed bugs and the eggs they leave behind, which are rapidly killed when exposed to temperatures over 113F. And because steam vapor particles are so small, they can reach cracks and crevices chemicals cannot. With a steam vapor system like the PRO EP1000 bed bugs have nowhere to hide and are a thing of the past. And because the PRO EP1000 kills bed bugs right away, it can be more economical than chemical alternatives that take several treatments.

A lighthearted look at news, events, culture and everyday life in New York._____________________

By Nina Pajak

As a mild lunatic, Im always gratified when someone from a fairly legitimate news outlet reports on the things which at once torment and endlessly interest me. In this case, I am referring to an extraordinarily important article posted on Yahoo! yesterday entitled: The Dirtiest Things in a Hotel Room Revealed.

How can you not look?

There arent a ton of surprises here. At least, not for those of us who think about these things. The TV remote and light switches rank among the filthiest items travelers can touch, second only to the actual cleaning carts used by hotel maids to wipe bacteria around and transfer it from room to room. Sharesies!

Ive long suspected that virtually everything in a hotel room functions as a petrie dish teeming with every invisible germ, sneeze, globule, pathogen, virus, flake and oogie from thousands of anonymous strangers. Being one who scours for bed bugs or evidence thereof does not help dispel this theory. I see more hairs, stains and smears than anyone ought. Then again, Im not dead yet.

I once worked with a woman who once had been a higher up at a major hotel chain. She confided some pretty horrific secrets, most of which I forget now due to my self-preservationinstinct to block out the information. But I do remember one fact which Ive never been able to set aside.

She told us that when she stays at a hotel, she never uses the drinking glasses provided in her room. Why? Because of what she knew about the cleanliness of the hotel at which she worked. When turning rooms over, the maids would look to see if the glasses were obviously dirty. If they were not, theyd wipe off the rims and put them down on a new paper cap, good as new. Its sort of like when an exterminator, while helping my brother with his bed bug problem, told him hed never go to the movies anymore for fear of the pests. One must do as the experts do.

A chance to relax and escape the everyday demands of work and home is a real reward, but today's vacations bring with an extra worry besides airline baggage fees: bed bugs. Once rarely seen, these blood-sucking creatures are appearing with a vengeance at the very places we go to escape - hotels and vacation rentals. But worse than finding bed bugs on vacation is bringing them home.

Do some research

Before making hotel reservations, do a quick search online to see if bed bugs have been reported at the hotel or rental you've chosen. Sites list hotels and other locations where bed bugs have been spotted.

While these sites can sometimes be in error, if you spot multiple listings and a number of bed bug sites reported within a specific area, it's possible this is a bed bug "hot spot."

To be certain you'll get a good night's sleep, also check out hotel reviews on travel websites to confirm the presence of bed bugs, or to see if there are other problems at specific hotels. Certain cities are also at a higher risk for bed bug infestations, so it helps to know which ones have had the most problems.

Oddly, even smaller, non-metropolitan cities have had problems with bed bugs. Orkin lists 50 U.S. cities ranked in order of the number of bed bug treatments performed from January to April 2011.
