The hotel pest that's hard to avoid

They can live for months without feeding, making their colonies close to where people sleep. They'll hide under chairs and beds, or in the walls, and scurry from sunlight. They seek out the warm spots around your head, neck, forearms and abdomen to suck your blood in the middle of the night. Once you've got them, it's hell to get rid of them.

In this article, a group of New York tourists encountered an infestation of bedbugs last week during their an annual Ocean City family reunion.

Bedbugs are nothing to mess with, it is best left up to a professional. Craig Thomas Pest Control employs inspection techniques along with steam cleaning, state of the art mattress covers to rid the problem. However, follow up treatments are necessary to rid the problem effectively. For more information on how to prevent a bedbug problem or for help with a problem, call your Hudson Valley Pest Professional, Craig Thomas Pest Control.
