About Bed Bug Infestations
In Multi Unit Dwellings
The Multi Unit Dilemma
Why do Bed Bug infestations in apartments and condos persist?
The most challenging obstacle when trying to control Bed Bug infestations in apartment and condo units is that Bed Bugs easily spread from one unit to another. Bed Bugs sense body heat, CO2, and pheromones emitted by humans. Once a colony has reached a point where it no longer has a food source that can sustain it, breakaway bugs migrate to the next unit through the walls and unsealed face plates, attracted by other sources of food in the adjacent unit.
We have had landlords and managers report that tenants will take infested, discarded mattresses and furniture from dumpsters and alleys back to their units, not even suspecting they are bringing the problem back to their building and spreading the infestation! Clearly the problem is complex; especially if you live in a multi unit building. What has become very clear after over countless treatments is Bed Bug infestations are everyone’s problem, and everyone must be part of the solution in order control this Bed Bug epidemic that is sweeping the country.
Even High-End Properties are not Bed Bug Exempt
Case Study…
Dead Bed Bugs Found after InfestationHere’s a case study of a family’s losing battle against Bed Bugs in their expensive apartment. After an unsuccessful call to the property management company, Mrs. Rogers hired an exterminator to come in and spray their apartment. The process took weeks. “We had to live out of garbage bags,” she said. “Every day, we had to wash everything over and over again.” But the problem didn’t go away, so the couple decided to move out of their apartment. They packed all of their stuff into a box truck and heated it to 160 degrees to stop the bed bugs before they moved into their new apartment. But they threw away their bed and couch. “I could never actually sit on my stuff and feel confident that they were gone,” Rogers said. “I mean I know they are gone, but I’d be constantly looking around making sure they weren’t on me, weren’t biting me.” Don’t let Bed Bugs eat you out of house and home!
