Many people these days don't know the symptoms of bed bugs. It is understandable, as bed bugs along with some pests have been exterminated during the widespread use of DDT in the United States after World War I.

But due to international travel and migration, these symptoms of errors are resurfacing. But people don't detect these symptoms unless someone complains about the excessive itching and brands of oval insects which are wrong often as mosquito stings or bites from dust mites.

When a home experiences a typical symptoms of bed bugs, it does not check their mattresses and beddings and upholstered sofa bed bugs. Members of the family only spray spray gel to kill cockroaches or mosquito-like insects. But this type of insect spray does not kill bed bugs, and therefore, furniture and upholstery remain infested bed bugs.

* The Bedbugs - symptoms of infestation

How do I know if he is infested of my home?

A heavily infested House would have an offensive, sweet, musty smell. This scent is released by bed bugs through their glands.

Another symptom you are looking for is fecal or spots of excrement, SAC and bed bug shed fur nymphs in cracks, crevices or holes in the bed or near it. Also you should check furniture near the bed. Funds of bedroom, bed springs and garrisons in his dressing room, should be considered for these droppings of reddish-brown spots.

Will have to check their sofa in the lounge for these spots, especially if you or someone in your family get bugs bite symptoms bloated after session from your sofa. Bed bugs must monitor each place in your home where a person remains more than 30 minutes.

-Caches

A thin crack or mattress seams are the hiding of bed bugs. Bed bugs wants to live closer to their food source, which is human blood, cracks near the bed or in the bedroom and living room are the primary caches.

Once you find a bed bugs anywhere in your home, other parts of your House will no doubt have too.

-Find bugs

Inspect your entire House to detect symptoms of bed bugs at the moment. Dismantle the bed, check the headboard, inspect your mattress seams. If you haven't found silent and reddish brown skin insect excrement, it means that your House is infested with bed bugs.

If you experience these symptoms, you must launch the wallpaper too. Most likely, these creatures have created their largest in the wallpaper colony. Each wood furniture that has must inspect too. They may have bugs too because the bugs prefer wooden or cloth as his hideout instead of plastic or metal.

Empty the contents of their nightstands and look inside and out. Suggestion to inspect the crevices, cracks, nooks and corners of the woodwork below. From bed bugs love woods, there is a great opportunity they are hiding there.

-A few facts of bed bugs

Bed bug bites are often wrong to mosquitoes or mites. Then, how you know the symptoms? Below are some basic facts bite:

* Bed bugs feed by piercing human skin with two elongated peaks.

* One of the peak injects saliva which contains the anesthetic to reduce pain in skin perforated and anti-coagulant to prevent blood clotting.

* Another peak sucks blood.

* Bed bugs are nocturnal insects. They are very active during the night, especially one hour before dawn breaks.

* Bed bugs are oval, flat, and therefore hide in extremely thin cracks that is the reason for their breeding site are very difficult to find.

* An adult bugs can live eighteen 18 months or more without food and only remain in hiding or breeding grounds until it reaches a host and satisfy their need for blood.

* Bed bugs are often called the hitchhikers due to their ability to travel long distances by ride on luggage, baggage and garrisons.

* Female bedbugs 300 eggs.

* After of 10 ten days to be delivered bugs nymphs of eggs.

The question is: How can a person get bugs in the first place and what are the tricks to get rid of them?

Do you have to do with cleaning or lack?

No can be a clean freak and still have a bugs in your home. It is useful to get rid of any disorder when she find out you have bed bugs because they can hide almost in any place and less places that have to look for better.

-They are attracted to a type of furniture and you may discourage them by the type of furniture you have?

It is not a question of what type of furniture you have - the risk of contracting the bugs is the same if you have plastic, wood, metal or no furniture at all.

-Is where you live?

It may be part of it. People living in an area where the bed bug infestations are common are more susceptible to getting too.

Bed bugs is very similar to the capture of a cold or flu. If there is an infestation of bedbugs near you, your chances of having its own infestation occurs is much more likely. In fact, the chances of getting the bugs is increasingly likely that every day!

-How does get bugs then?

You can get bed bugs when:

1 Live in a building where someone has them - buildings as crowded apartments found in densely populated cities are much more likely to have infestations of bed bugs to less crowded areas. New York has a problem of very bad bugs and even there have been several reports of incidents of bugs in 5 star hotels in New York.

2. Go to places where they are likely to be the bed bug infestations. Travel; outside the country and crowded cities is a common way to collect unwanted hitch hikers.

3. You purchase or obtain used furniture or clothing which is already infested with bed bugs and take them home. If these things at home, be sure to check errors in the first place.

4. The occupation brought in infested areas. Firefighters from several States had bed bug infestations badly in their firehouses because during their routine work often are in buildings that are infested and bring errors on their clothing.

5. Recently comes home from school of children have been bringing the errors in his luggage.

Therefore the probability of obtaining the bugs is more than one factor of their movements and the potential exposure to them through nearby infestations than any other factor.

At the same time problems of bed bugs were quite rare - in fact had almost disappeared as a plague of the problem.

Unfortunately that was when toxic pesticides were liberally used for houses, and along with kill errors, people and domestic animals were being poisoned too. And excessive use of these toxins meant errors started to become resistant to poisons used.

Finally the use of certain pesticides was restricted means better health for people, but the population of bed bugs began to multiply and is now a near epidemic in many parts of the world.

And bugs are, without doubt, one of the toughest infestations of insects to front. And the problem of having a bed bug problem belongs the psychological trauma that often accompanies it.

Then, is how to dispose of bed bugs?

The easiest way is to not get in the first place. And if you've had but got rid of them, keep alert to forms could invite themselves back.

Things to know when to get rid of bed bugs.

* Bed bugs are very difficult to eliminate because they can hide in the small cracks and crevices, and under your mattress, curtains, sockets and plates, and coming out only at night when you sleeping normally. So to find them and killing everyone they are to work hard in fact and usually requires the help of a professional.

* Bed bugs have a low tolerance of heat, and he will die at temperatures about about 120 degrees. Treatment of steam and use will kill and you can purchase equipment to kill them with steam.

* Some pesticides will work to remove them (pest control companies can tell you that), and only have to be comfortable with the use of pesticides in your home and where to sleep.

* There are some non-toxic natural remedies that work, but you have to be diligent about how to use them. These include steam in and a product misting has been used successfully by hotels that it is toxic and also kills fleas and cockroaches.

* The best way to permanently rid of bed bugs is to use a combination of methods which may include professional help, and then maintenance of alert for signs of them returning and act immediately if it does.

At one point, after staying in a hotel I found that bed bugs slept in the same bed that was. This surprising is very popular with people who have stayed in hotels, residences and hospitals even. If you are an owner of these hotels, residences and hospitals is that you want to read this so you can find information on how to dispose of bedbugs discreetly. So if you're who stays in a hotel or runs one and, then, want to read the most simple way to get rid of bed bugs.

Step 1 is how to do a proper inspection of these bugs. She wished to know what aspect these bugs and where to inspect. In its inspection it will first start with the bed. Bed fleas can live in sofas, beds, mattresses and many other places, but we will use a mattress for an example.

In a mattress look through joints or the edges of the mattress. You will need to peel these back and sometimes find these bugs asleep or full of blood. Then are inspected carefully all the edges and seams, then you want to pick up the mattress and watch the box spring. Also pop can open the mattress and inspect inside it through the bottom.

Therefore with your mattress inspected wishes to move towards inspection around the room. The following elements are easy to inspect and will be important to concentrate. First, check all the drawers of the dresser in his room. Remove drawers and inspect the bottom of them.

After the dresser move to look at the plug sockets and electricity Sockets. These outlets can draw open and he looked at. I've found often bugs sleep in these plug and take power. Be sure to be careful when dealing with electricity outlets.

Now we can move to step 2 and step 2 is on the use of an early natural solution. Given that at the moment only cares about how rid of bed bugs from his home, then you will see a rapid solution of safe non-toxic.

I can only recommend a method on how to get rid of bed bugs without calling an exterminator. Now, terminators can be excellent resources, but that if don't want to hire a professional.

It's pretty easy to get rid of bed bugs without a professional. What I recommend is to use a bed bugs that spray professionals. they use hotels, hospitals and other sufferers of bed bugs. In my experience, bugs bully has been excellent resource and you can search for other types of natural bed bug sprays. You will find most are harmful pesticides and you may have to evacuate or get rid of your furniture.

It is not necessary to throw nothing or evacuate to use the natural solution of bed bugs as a bully for bugs. This is the fastest method I've found to be successful and truly you what solution can be used.

Step 3 is the last step and simply cleaning up the mess. To do this, you are taking your vacuum cleaner and scan around all places that have bugs. If you use a good solution which is natural as the bully for bugs, it won't be necessary to evacuate or dispose of any of its elements. Simply will only want to take advantage of the empty and clean all mattresses, sofas, mattresses and other places that may have had bed bugs.

Although a licensed pest control operator will probably perform these tasks more effectively, safely and legally, they can be expensive, especially for a whole house.

If you want to do it yourself, these steps to getting rid of bed bugs will help you:

Start off by finding the bed bugs. Sometimes easier said than done; their flat shape enables them to fit into barely noticeable crevices the width of a credit card.

Instead of ineffectual generalised spraying, arm yourself with a bright flashlight and target their nests. Search for adults, juniors and eggs, noting that sometimes individual eggs are scattered all over the home.

Dismantle bed frames and stand the components on their edges. Look for the bugs themselves and the light-brown molted skins of the nymphs. Remove the gauze fabric under the box spring in order to inspect and treat because there is a good chance they are inside your mattress. Check under the fabric stapled to the frame in the box springs.

Holes or tears in the gauze or fabric of the mattress probably means bed bugs and eggs will be inside. Because restrictions apply to treating mattresses with insecticides, pest control firms recommend infested beds be thrown out. But even if you do that, you need to get rid of the bed bugs already in your home, otherwise the new mattress will become infested too.

Cracks and crevices of bed frames, attached side railings and supports, head and foot boards all need to be closely examined, especially if the frame is wood. Bedbugs prefer fabric, wood and paper more so than metal or plastic.

If you cannot afford to replace the bed, vacuum it thoroughly. Brushing also helps. Try treating your bed with a portable steam machine. It helps but will not kill the bugs and eggs hidden inside the box spring or mattress.

Apply insecticide on the mattress, box springs and bed components without spraying the mattress surface, bed sheets, blankets or clothing.

After spraying and dusting, encase your mattress in one and the box spring in another sealable cover. If you just cover your mattress and box spring with plastic, the bed bugs will chew right through it. Cloth is probably more comfortable and more secure. Allergy supply companies sell zippered encasements for dust mite prevention.

Keeping the mattress covers sealed for a year or 18 months ensures you destroy the bug's life cycle. Inspect the bag regularly for damage; if you find any holes or tears, seal them with permanent tape and any trapped bugs will eventually die.

Only apply insecticide to a mattress if the product label specifically mentions it, and very few do. Should you find one, apply it as a light mist to the entire mattress, opening seams, tufts, and folds so the chemical penetrates these hiding places. Allow it to dry completely before using. Never sleep directly on a treated mattress without bed linen and do not treat mattresses of infants or ill people.

To stop bed bugs from crawling onto a bed, pull the bed frame away from the wall, tuck sheets and blankets in so they are off the floor and stand the legs of the bed in little dishes of mineral oil, or water with a drop of dish washing liquid.

Remove and inspect headboards secured to walls since this is one of the first places the bugs head for. They also hide among stuff stored under the bed.

Empty night stands and dressers, remove drawers, examine them inside and out, then turn them over to inspect underneath, looking for cracks, corners, and recesses.

Check upholstered chairs and sofas, carefully inspecting seams, tufts, skirts, and crevices beneath cushions, especially when used for sleeping.

Bed bugs like crawling upwards to hide in pictures, wall hangings, drapery pleats, loosened wallpaper, cracks in the plaster and ceiling-wall junctures.

Other common places to find bed bugs:

- Electrical boxes
- Floor cracks
- Cracks in wood molding
- Wall paper seams
- Beneath loose wallpaper near the bed
- Inside radios, phones, clocks, television sets and smoke detectors. When open, tap the smaller appliances into a bag or on sticky tape so the bugs do not jump and hide
- Under the tack board of wall-to-wall carpeting, especially behind beds and furniture.
- Amongst clothing stored in closets
- In laundry
- Within wicker furniture
- Secondhand beds, bedding and furniture; newer mattresses offer less hiding places.

Since infested bedding, curtains, pyjamas, garments and soft toys cannot be treated with insecticide, they need to be bagged and laundered in hot water, 120 degrees Fahrenheit minimum and dried using the hot setting, or discarded. When fully dry and very hot, dry them for another 20 minutes in the dryer and not naturally on the clothes line.

Dry cleaning works too but either tell the dry cleaner they are infested, or before you take the items to him, place them dry into a clothes dryer at moderate setting which will be below 160 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 minutes.

The same with toys, shoes, backpacks and items not washable; heat them in a clothes dryer for 20 minutes. Or wrap them in black plastic bags and expose them to direct sunlight for at least a few days.

After washing, drying and dry cleaning, bag the items in sealed, airtight bags until you next use them.

Bedbugs also die when exposed to below freezing temperatures for at least two weeks. So if you have the space you can put some items in the freezer. Raising or lowering the thermostat is not good enough.

Overall cleanliness is key, so start by thoroughly cleaning the infested rooms as well as adjoining ones. Vacuum accumulated dirt and debris. Dislodge eggs by scrubbing infested surfaces with a stiff brush and reduce clutter to limit places they can hide.

With a powerful suction to remove bed bugs from cracks and crevices, vacuum along baseboards, around bed stands, headboards, footboards, mattress seams, tufts, buttons, edges of the bedding, edges of carpets, especially along the tack strips to remove bugs and eggs. When finished dispose of the vacuum cleaner bag by sealing it in a trash bag.

Steam clean the carpets to kill bugs and eggs which vacuuming may have missed. Steam cleaning does not work for mattresses though; it can lead to mold, mildew and dust mites.

Treat your home with a product whose label specifies bed bug control and it must have a long lasting residual effects, otherwise they will return.

Carefully read the label and apply only if you fully understand the instructions. Do NOT apply any insecticide or pesticide to mattresses or surfaces which are in direct contact with a person unless the label specifically says so. Some products contain chemicals not safe for people and pets.

Bug treatment products are usually one of three types:

1. Insecticidal dusts

Contain finely ground glass or silica powder and cause the bugs to dry out. Apply only to cracks, crevices, wall voids, attics and hollows, for example a tubular bed frame; these are places where bed bugs hide. Do not spread dust over carpets or under carpets where people or animals tread.

2. Contact insecticides

Contain one or more pyrethoids which knock down and kill bugs shortly after contact. Should be applied as spot treatments to cracks and crevices where bed bugs hide.

3. Insect growth regulators

These affect the reproduction cycle of insects and reduce populations. They do not kill quickly so often supplement other insecticides as part of the overall bed bug treatment plan.

Products available to consumers with the ingredients pyrethrin, resmethrin (0.3% spray) and allethrin are effective. Others even more potent may only be used by professionals.

Protect all food and eating utensils from insecticides. After ten days, apply a second treatment to kill the hatching nymphs. And after another ten days, a third treatment.

Changes you need to make around your home

Caulk and seal all holes. Fill all cracks and crevices in the walls, around baseboards and moldings. Repair cracks in plaster and glue down loosened wallpaper.

For your protection, remove nests or roosts of birds and bats in and on the home, and seal all screen openings.

As a home remedy you can try sprinkle boric acid powder in their nests but not directly on your mattress.

Inorganic materials, such as diatomaceous earth, also known as silica dioxide or silicone dioxide, and silica aerogel may kill them but are unlikely to sort out your whole problem. Try spreading this non-toxic powder you buy from feed and supply stores, around the perimeter of your room and when the bed bugs cross the powder, they coat themselves in it, become dehydrated and die. Also insert in crevices and cracks.

Baits and adhesive-based traps do not work for bedbugs. Neither do foggers, bug bombs or total release aerosol insecticides; they actually scatter the bedbugs and make extermination more difficult.

Natural remedies like undiluted tea tree oil may give limited relief but are unlikely to eliminate a bed bug infestation.

Some home remedies include applying bleach which kills on contact and spraying hot steam from a high powered steam cleaner into cracks for three seconds at a time.

But bed bugs are persistent, resilient insects. They can withstand the heat up to 100 degree temperatures, a short spell in your freezer, multiple pest control treatments and can live for a year without eating. If you want to completely get rid of them, you need to aggressively persist until you no longer get bitten and there are no longer any signs of habitation.

Although a licensed pest control operator will probably perform these tasks more effectively, safely and legally, they can be expensive, especially for a whole house.

Bedbugs also die when exposed to below freezing temperatures for at least two weeks. So if you have the space you can put some items in the freezer. Raising or lowering the thermostat is not good enough.

Overall cleanliness is key, so start by thoroughly cleaning the infested rooms as well as adjoining ones. Vacuum accumulated dirt and debris. Dislodge eggs by scrubbing infested surfaces with a stiff brush and reduce clutter to limit places they can hide.

With a powerful suction to remove bed bugs from cracks and crevices, vacuum along baseboards, around bed stands, headboards, footboards, mattress seams, tufts, buttons, edges of the bedding, edges of carpets, especially along the tack strips to remove bugs and eggs. When finished dispose of the vacuum cleaner bag by sealing it in a trash bag.

Steam clean the carpets to kill bugs and eggs which vacuuming may have missed. Steam cleaning does not work for mattresses though; it can lead to mold, mildew and dust mites.

Treat your home with a product whose label specifies bed bug control and it must have a long lasting residual effects, otherwise they will return.

Carefully read the label and apply only if you fully understand the instructions. Do NOT apply any insecticide or pesticide to mattresses or surfaces which are in direct contact with a person unless the label specifically says so. Some products contain chemicals not safe for people and pets.

Bug treatment products are usually one of three types:

1. Insecticidal dusts

Contain finely ground glass or silica powder and cause the bugs to dry out. Apply only to cracks, crevices, wall voids, attics and hollows, for example a tubular bed frame; these are places where bed bugs hide. Do not spread dust over carpets or under carpets where people or animals tread.

2. Contact insecticides

Contain one or more pyrethoids which knock down and kill bugs shortly after contact. Should be applied as spot treatments to cracks and crevices where bed bugs hide.

3. Insect growth regulators

These affect the reproduction cycle of insects and reduce populations. They do not kill quickly so often supplement other insecticides as part of the overall bed bug treatment plan.

Products available to consumers with the ingredients pyrethrin, resmethrin (0.3% spray) and allethrin are effective. Others even more potent may only be used by professionals.

Protect all food and eating utensils from insecticides. After ten days, apply a second treatment to kill the hatching nymphs. And after another ten days, a third treatment.

Changes you need to make around your home

Caulk and seal all holes. Fill all cracks and crevices in the walls, around baseboards and moldings. Repair cracks in plaster and glue down loosened wallpaper.

For your protection, remove nests or roosts of birds and bats in and on the home, and seal all screen openings.

As a home remedy you can try sprinkle boric acid powder in their nests but not directly on your mattress.

Inorganic materials, such as diatomaceous earth, also known as silica dioxide or silicone dioxide, and silica aerogel may kill them but are unlikely to sort out your whole problem. Try spreading this non-toxic powder you buy from feed and supply stores, around the perimeter of your room and when the bed bugs cross the powder, they coat themselves in it, become dehydrated and die. Also insert in crevices and cracks.

Baits and adhesive-based traps do not work for bedbugs. Neither do foggers, bug bombs or total release aerosol insecticides; they actually scatter the bedbugs and make extermination more difficult.

Natural remedies like undiluted tea tree oil may give limited relief but are unlikely to eliminate a bed bug infestation.

Some home remedies include applying bleach which kills on contact and spraying hot steam from a high powered steam cleaner into cracks for three seconds at a time.

But bed bugs are persistent, resilient insects. They can withstand the heat up to 100 degree temperatures, a short spell in your freezer, multiple pest control treatments and can live for a year without eating. If you want to completely get rid of them, you need to aggressively persist until you no longer get bitten and there are no longer any signs of habitation.

Bed bugs in hotels have become a serious concern to travelers. If you have never had them, you can ensure you never get them in the future either. If you are diligent and pay attention to your surroundings, you can prevent them forever, even if you stay in a hotel.

How to avoid bed bugs in hotels:

Since bed bugs can easily attach themselves to your purse or clothing, I would avoid visiting any home or hotel that you know has them.

When you must travel, what can you do about bugs in hotels? You can't be certain whether or not a hotel has them. You would have to use the same precautions as you would at home, and do the same kind of visual inspection. Sadly, bed bugs in hotels have become very common.

It would be prudent if, first of all, you would search online, by name, the hotels in the area where you will be staying. Search for reviews of hotels from former patrons. It's not probable that a hotel would itself reveal it had a bed bug problem, therefore you should look for independent reviews.

Just because a hotel is not listed as having a bug problem, it doesn't necessarily mean it is bug free. Travelers may bring them into a hotel within their clothing or luggage at any time.

How can you prevent getting bugs in hotels if you must stay in one? The way you can check for hotel bed bugs is to do a visual check of the bed linens and mattress. Seek out smears of blood or dried specks of dark brown or black. Those are the critter's droppings.

Take action immediately if you see those common and obvious signs of infestation. You shouldn't have to stay in a hotel with bugs, nor do you want to.

Check the headboard as well as the mattress. If close to the bed, dressers and night stands should also be checked. These insects like to hide in dark places, so drawers are a likely place to find them.

Report the problem to the front desk. Speak with a manager. He may not even be aware of the problem. It won't necessarily help you to change rooms because they can easily spread from room to room. For your peace of mind, just leave and find another hotel without bed bugs.

A good idea in advance of traveling is to get information on several hotels in the area. Thus, if you find your hotel has bugs, perhaps the next one will be bug free. It's best to plan ahead so that you have a choice between staying in a hotel with bed bugs and staying in one that does not. Have a list of hotels as a backup so you don't feel pressured.

Take the following precautions even if you don't see obvious signs of these insects in your hotel room. Avoiding them is far preferable than trying to get rid of them.

I would bring along a bug killer spray when traveling. I advocate only the use of non-toxic pest control products. Small travel size sprays are available for use in hotels and motels for getting rid of them.

Do not put your suitcases on the floor. Put them up on a dresser or bureau. If the hotel has supplied a luggage rack, be sure to use it. Neither should you put your purse or discarded clothing on the floor because bed bugs can climb onto them undetected. Your purse should be hung in the closet or off a shower rod if possible.

After undressing for the day, place the clothing you won't be wearing again in plastic bags if possible. Use plastic bags that you can seal tightly. I have found that Hefty makes some extra large zip bags in which travelers may seal clothing for protection from bed bugs. This is so great! Like extra giant baggies, they are eleven gallon bags that zip shut, effectively sealing out bugs and giving you complete protection from them.

By using the Hefty bag you have contained any bugs you may not have known were in the hotel. When you return home it will be easy to put your clothes in the washer and then dry them on hot, just in case.

You may wish to be even more cautious about avoiding bed bugs in hotels, so when you remove and bag up your clothing, take it to a laundry mat the following day for a wash and dry. A laundry service is sometimes available at hotels. This procedure assures you that should you have unknowingly gotten bugs on your clothes from the hotel or motel, you will have contained and killed them.

You should always check your luggage prior to leaving. If I wanted to be super cautious, I'd use a non-toxic bug spray on my suitcase, inside and out. Please use only safe, natural bug sprays, thus avoiding contamination of your personal items with toxic pesticides. There are various types of bed bug travel sprays that are convenient and easy to use, as well as non-toxic.

I would rest easier using a product that states it is safe around pets and kids, such as Green Rest Easy Travel Spray. It comes in a twin pack of two ounces, perfect for carrying in your suitcase. Scented like cinnamon, it does not have a nasty chemical odor that toxic bug sprays do. At the end of this article you can find a link where you can purchase this spray.

Place your hanging clothing in dry cleaning bags in the closets if the hotel supplies them. Your clothing should be kept far away from the bed as possible, and off the carpets. Plan ahead and bring your own dry cleaning bags, thus protecting your clothing from hotel bed bugs.

Personally, I would undress in the bathroom and hang my clothing in the shower if possible, thus avoiding contact with the floor altogether. If you travel frequently, it would be a good idea to bring hangers along. If need be, then you can hang your clothes off the shower rack. As an extra precaution, bring your own clear plastic bags as well, and hang your clothes inside them.

If, to your horror, you return home from a trip where you stayed in a hotel and find that you have bed bugs in your suitcase, what will you do? You can throw your clothes in a dryer because heat will kill them. But, how do you eliminate bugs from your luggage?

Amazingly, something is available for this exact problem. It is the Pack Tite Portable Bed Bug Killing Heater Unit, designed expressly for this purpose.

From eggs to adult bugs, the PackTite Bed Bug Heater Killer will kill them all at any stage of development. There are no chemicals used, and you may set the timer for a heating time of up to six whole hours! I'm certain that's enough to steam kill any bugs in your luggage.

Though this device may not be needed for the casual traveler, for someone who travels often, this may be necessary to avoid those hotel bed bugs.

To summarize, following is a list of fourteen steps to prevent getting bed bugs in hotels:

1. Check out the hotel online prior to leaving on your vacation to see if there have been complaints filed against it for bed bugs.

2. In the event that you need to change hotels, make a list of names, phone numbers, and directions to other hotels in the area.

3. Be sure to pack a non-toxic bug spray, and several large Hefty sealable bags.

4. Prior to putting your clothing in your suitcase, pack them inside the Hefty bags. Even if bugs manage to enter your suitcase, this ensures you won't get them on your clothes.

5. Just in case you need them, pack extra hangers so you can hang your clothes in the shower.

6. If you suspect an infestation you may need to do an emergency wash, so be sure to pack some quarters and laundry detergent.

7. Only bring things you absolutely need into the hotel room.

8. When you arrive at your hotel or motel, do a visual inspection of your room before you even bring your bags inside. Be sure to check every place that hotel bed bugs can hide.

9. Using only non-toxic spray, keep bugs at bay by spraying your suitcase on the outside.

10. Bag up your purse if possible, and keep it and your luggage off the floor.

11. Do not put discarded clothing on the floor. If you won't be wearing it again bag it up immediately, using a resealable Hefty bag.

12. Before you leave in the morning, wash yourself well with hot water.

13. Before returning your suitcase to your car, spray the outside again with the non-toxic spray.

14. When you arrive home, dump contents of all Hefty bags into a very hot wash, and dry on high heat. Before bringing your suitcase into the house, spray it again.

Now you know you took all possible precautions to prevent getting hotel bed bugs.

Bed bugs can be everywhere. Most probably, your bed contains hundreds to thousands of bed bugs that crawl and creep into your body when you are asleep and give bed bug bites.
Bed bugs are like insects equipped with intelligence. They really can get smart. Bed bug bites are when bed bugs suck the blood of their host, which of course are humans, and sometimes animal pets like fogs, cats, birds and even bats.

Long time ago, bed bugs are most prevalent among birds’ nests. But because just like the human species, bed bugs are evolving and adapting to environmental changes, they have learned to crawl into people’s homes, particularly beds and room surfaces.
Doctors and medical practitioners assure, however, that bed bug bites are not that harmful. Mosquito bites are far more threatening than bed bug bites because they can sometimes transfer a number of serious ailments like malaria, dysentery, elephantiasis or h-fever.

In comparison, bed bug bites do not pose much health risk. Bed bugs can be a host to a number of diseases but they seldom pass this on to their hosts or victims.
Good thing that bed bug bites are safer when it comes to ailments and diseases transferred through it.

Understanding How Bed Bugs Bite
As described earlier, bed bugs use their beaks to pierce skin and get or suck the abundant supply of blood. By doing so, it is inevitable for them not to transfer or leave their saliva into the pierced skin.
This saliva, thankfully, can never contain diseases or pathogens. But, these saliva can cause allergic reactions. Some people’s systems will react harshly to such bed bug bites.

Hence, most bed bug bites swell after 10 minutes to 24 hours. Just like mosquito bites, bed bug bites swell and appear reddish. Bed bug bites are also accompanied by little discomfort and itchiness.
The itch from bed bug bites can be so persistent and annoying that if you keep on scratching bed bug bites, you will be tempted to make it harder. By that, you will be creating little wounds from bed bug bites.
At most, that is what bed bug bites can do.

Of course, the beat and most effective way to avoid bed bug bites is by making sure the insects will not appear during sleep hours. And how can that be?

By ensuring that your bed or your room as a whole is not infested by bed bugs. To prevent bed bugs from attacking and avoid bed bug bites, maintain hygiene and cleanliness. Regularly clean the room and be thorough in cleaning crevices and cracks on floors and walls to prevent bed bug bites.
If you like traveling, make sure the place you are staying in is not infested with bed bugs. Otherwise, bed bugs can get into your baggage, and voila, when you unpack your things at home, bed bugs will be spread into your room and you’ll get bed bug bites for sure.

There are also insect-repellant products in the market. There are those products that can be applied to your skin like lotion. Once you have these repellant, bed bugs will be reluctant to get near you. They will find your skin a danger zone and will find you unappealing as a food source. Isn’t that appealing to you?
bed bug bites are hard to avoid especially if you are not living alone in your room, or you have thousands of bed bugs families in your bed. Prevention of bed bug bites is better than cure.
Might as well be very careful not to make your room and bed breeding grounds for bed bugs to prevent bed bug bites. In the market, you can also find dozens of lotions or skin products that serve as repellent to bed bugs bites.

Bed bug bites can never be serious, don’t worry. All you have to do is treat the bed bug bites the way you treat mosquito bites. bed bug bites normally fade out and heal by themselves over a little time.
