Bedbugs battle still underway at Vancouver libraries

The Vancouver Public Library admits it has found dozens of bed bugs in branches across the city in the past year, despite tougher protocols.

The VPL put new procedures in place last year after the parasitic insects were found in libraries around the whole Lower Mainland, but 41 of the bugs have turned up this year in more than half of the citys 22 branches.

Staff are trained to look for the critters, said spokesman Stephen Barrington.

If staff suspect an item is carrying one of the insects, librarians put the item in a plastic bag, seal it and throw it out.

Supervisors are notified and equipment and furniture are cleaned and treated.

It's a very responsive approach, it's a very proactive approach. We know that it's working Barrington said. The incidents are indeed very low.

Barrington noted that VPL branches comprise about 500,000 square feet of floor space, with about 10 million items circulating each year and 6.5 million patron visits.

Library patron Gail Meredith's home became infested with bedbugs last spring. Meredith was forced to move out for 10 days and spent nearly $4,000 for an extermination.

She said shes not sure where the bugs came from, but the exterminator had a theory.

"The pest control people came to the conclusion that the only thing that was going on in my life that was likely to bring them in is my library books, Meredith told CBC News.

Bed Bugs Find Their Way to University of Washington and Hastings-on-Hudson Libraries; Bed Bug Control 911 Advises Use …

Bed bugs were found in the University of Washington library and the Hastings-on-Hudson library. But apart from the techniques used by the two libraries, Bed Bug Control 911 shared that the use of bed bug spray could also kill the pests.

New York, NY (PRWEB) December 10, 2012

The said article was published online on Decemeber 05, 2012. And as it shared, [the reported cases of bed bugs in libraries increased in the past number of years as stated by Michael Potter, a professor of entomology at University of Kentucky in Lexington.

Specifically, it identified the University of Washington Library and the Hastings-on-Hudson Library as two of those libraries that had dealt with bed bug presence. It related that the University of Washington particularly froze the books with bed bugs for a week to kill the pests. Meanwhile, it shared that Hastings-on-Hudson chose to deal with pests using heat via a pest-control expert.

But although Bed Bug Control 911 recognized the effectiveness of the two bed bug elimination tactics used by the two libraries, it said that they aren't the only ones that a bed bug victim could implement.

To add to the two techniques, it pointed out that the use of bed bug spray could also be an effective way to kill the pests. However, it specified that the product must be safe and effective to prevent chemical-related illnesses. And as an example, it pointed out Bed Bug Bully as a safe and effective bed bug help.

Further, apart from safe and effective, Bed Bug Control 911 related that Bed Bug Bully is also an affordable pesticide-exempt bed bug killer, more so today until the end of December. It shared that's because the product's manufacturer, My Cleaning Products, decided to sell it with 30% discount as its New Year Special.

Relief Organizations Worry Sandy Clothing Donations Would Start Bed Bug Epidemic; Bed Bug Removal Guide Advises …

One report said that clothing donations to Sandy victims could lead to bed bug epidemic. Wanting to help prevent that, Bed Bug Removal Guide advised the storm-affected residents to prepare a safe and effective bed bug spray.

New York, NY (PRWEB) December 06, 2012

As said in the International Business Times report, many people were willing to donate clothes for Sandy victims in need. However, there was a problem. Bed bugs could hitchhike on donated clothes and trigger a massive infestation. Because of that, the report shared that relief organizations as the American Red Cross and United Way don't take clothing donations anymore. Instead, it said that they encouraged the public to donate money.

Stating that bed bugs are small and sneaky, Bed Bug Removal Guide said that they could indeed hitchhike on donated clothes unnoticed and cause a bed bug epidemic. And as it said, that will definitely give Sandy victims another problem.

However, although relief organizations already stopped taking clothing donations, it said that Sandy victims could still suffer from bed bug presence. That's because of the evacuations of the many victims to temporary housing facilities. It explained that the high population and traffic on those places could easily transfer bed bugs from one person to another.

Because of that, Bed Bug Removal Guide advised Sandy victims to prepare a bed bug spray. Particularly, it advised them to ready a Bed Bug Bully.

It said that to anybody, Bed Bug Bully is the best bed bug treatment help as it is both effective and safe. Unlike other bed bug products, it stated that it is made with organic ingredients and has passed several federal programs and guidelines as pesticide-exempt.

Additionally, it said that many pest-control companies and homeowners have already proven that Bed Bug Bully safely and effectively works. And so, Bed Bug Removal Guide urged the Sandy-affected residents and all the other bed bug victims to pick it over others. To prove that themselves, it even encouraged them to try the complimentary sample its manufacturer is giving out.
