BED BUGS

1. Q. How do you get Bed Bugs?

A. Right now we have found two major risk factors - Travel and Used furniture. If you are planning to travel we recommend you inspect the bedding, mattress and night stands in your hotel room before bringing in your luggage. Used furniture has been a real problem for many homes as well. We recommend that you do not pick up furniture that has been put out for trash, it may be out for trash because it is infested with bed bugs. Rental furniture is also a risk, be sure to inspect it carefully before bringing it home.
