BedBugs in Your Home
Bite Back
SOON AFTER MOVING to my new appartment in 2012, I woke with my arms inflamed.
I told myself the itch red spots were spider bites, but I'd heard of incidents of bed bugs in the neighbourhood. Lying in bed one morning, I felt a pinch I tore of the blankets. There it was a critter about half the size of a ladybird in my pillow.

In the months that followed, I scrubbed my floors and base boards. I vacuumed furniture, spread talcum powder and put everything through the washing machines dryer.
I had two unsuccessful professional exterminations and lost a lot of money on replacing the furniture and bedding I had discarded to be extra safe.
It's a familiar experience for many of us it seems that bedbug resurgence is becoming a problem worldwide.
In 2013, research firm COMPASS Inc, surveyed 67 Canadian public health inspectors and found that in,the previous three years, reports of infestations had increased everywhere from 20 to nor than 40 percent.
Preventing bedbugs
You can avoid bringing bugs home. Check your belongings for the critters when you enter your house, since bugs can be picked up in public places, like buses, trains and cafes.
When staying at a hotel, peel back the sheets to examine the mattress for bugs. Pay close attention to the seams and corners. You should always keep your luggage away from the bed and off the floor. Once back home , wash your clothes in hot water immediately, then put them in the washing machine dryer on the hottest setting.
Identifying the problem
Bedbugs are brownish red with 1.5- to 10- millimetre- sized oval bodies. If you suspect you have them, the best way to prevent an infestation is to catch it early.
Check underneath your mattres. You may look at the top of the bed and find nothing, but flip it over and you might find nothing but bedbugs. Another sign is the droppings they leave, which look like blood red, pencil-tip-sized speckled on the mattress.
Still not sure? Place glue mouse traps or containers of mineral oil underneath the bed frame's legs to snag them travelling onto the mattress. If you catch any, call in the professionals.
Are bedbugs harmful ?
Bedbugs don't spread diseases, so for many the worst physical side effect is a skin infection from scratching. But for some, infestations can lead to social stigma, as well as anxiety, sleeplessness or depression. It starts to consume your thinking. Don't self blame or hide the problem. You aren't alone.
Zapping the bugs
Zapping the bugs
If you have an infestation, call an exterminator. Bedbugs are resilient , do it yourself solutions like sprays often wear off before they need sustenance again ( they can go more than a year without feeding). Sprays won't be as powerful as professional interventions and may even spread the bugs around your home. When a company is thorough , one visit it'll spray to poison them , use powder and do a heat treatment. Many skip the latter and the problem returns.
