Bed bugs are tiny survivors that can make a home in your mattress, drawers, luggage or on your curtains, headboards or walls – anywhere that is close to their food source.
RISKS TO YOU
Bed bugs are insects that feed on the blood of their sleeping victims at night. Their bites are not known to spread infections, however they are often itchy and can become infected if scratched.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR
- Blood stains on sheets or pillowcases
- Dark or rusty spots of bedbug excrement
- An offensive, musty odour from the bed bugs’ scent glands
- Awaking with bites that were not there the previous night
TIPS TO MINIMISE BEDBUGS
- Recognise the signs of bedbugs at home and when you travel
- Have a flashlight handy so you can make a thorough inspection of bedding
- Inspect furniture, headboards and luggage. Whilst travelling keep your luggage off the floor and beds
- Reduce clutter and vacumm regularly
