How You Can Avoid Getting Bit by Bed Bugs in Public Places

Bed bug infestations are on the rise this summer as people travel and spend more time in public places. As an example, youth group orchestra members on tour recently experienced numerous bed bug bites during a four day stay at the Ramada Inn in Florence, Ky.

Some bed bug bite victims gain comfort by winning large settlements in courts, but most people want immediate protection from the annoyance and this involves a careful prevention plan. Just now summer travel is near its peak and dormitory living just around the corner, so reviewing bed bug prevention techniques is sensible.

Most bed bugs are located within a few feet of a bed, so reducing clutter on the floor near the sleeping area is paramount. Rule number one, carefully check out a public sleeping area such as a hotel or motel room, before taking it over. Bed bugs are tiny watermelon sized flat bugs that puff up and take on a reddish hue after a blood meal. They are usually found in mattress seams, on mattresses, behind the bed boards, on the carpet near the bed, on objects sitting on the floor near the bed, or on upholstered furniture in the room. Sometimes you might see live bed bugs , but mostly you'll notice shed bed bug skins, blood on a mattress where a bed bug was squashed during the night, or dried blood colored bed bug fecal stains on mattresses..

If you fail to find bed bugs, then it is safe to sleep in the room, but more precautions should be taken. Put your baggage on luggage racks and not directly on the floor. If there are no luggage racks you may place your luggage in the bathroom. Place fresh clothes on hangers, and place dirty clothes in closed plastic bags, not on the floor. After taking off your clothes at night, inspect them for bed bugs. When you get back from your trip, kill bed bugs in your clothes by washing them in hot water and placing them in the dryer on highest heat for at least 20 minutes. Luggage should be inspected for bed bugs before being allowed back into the home.

Living in a college dormitory requires further precautions. Any second hand furniture should be carerfully examined for bed bugs before being brought into the dorm. Sheets and bedding should be placed on the bed rather than on the floor. Clutter should be removed from around the bed and a careful search for bed bugs should be completed in the room before moving in.

If bed bugs are seen in a hotel room, the patrons should request another room. If you find bed bugs in your dormitory, contact the dorm authorities and ask for a new room. Unpleasant bed bug bites can take a lot of the fun out of vacations, and can interfere with a college students needed rest and concentration. The first step in bed bug control is bed bug prevention. Therefore it is well worth the effort to take a few minutes to check carefully for evidence of bed bugs in your room.
