Bed Bugs Join Prince William County Meeting, My Cleaning Products Suggests Use of Pesticide-Exempt Bed Bug Spray to …

Richmond, VA (PRWEB) February 28, 2014

Bed Bugs infested the Prince William County complex in Virginia. And based on a report from washingtonpost.com, they could have been present even during the county's recent meeting. In response to it, My Cleaning Products suggested a pesticide-exempt bed bug spray in order to help residents protect their houses from their further spread.

According to the report, which was published on February 25, 2014, the meeting was about the county's tax rate and was held on Tuesday at the building behind the McCoart Administration Bldg. It detailed that it was also were the critters detected, besides the McCoart building itself.

Particularly, the pesky insects were found at the lobby, the mail room, budget office and communications office of the building, the report relayed. But it relayed that county spokesman Jason Grant stated the building was treated the day before. Apart from, it said that the county also made a deal with a pest-control company to get rid of the critters.

However, the post said that while all of those things happened, the county decided not to tell anything to the people expected in the meeting. It related that the officials believed the critters are just a nuisance and the problem over their presence would just cause hysteria during the event.

Below is an excerpt from the post Bed Bugs Found in Prince William County Meeting Venue by My Cleaning Products.

A meeting with bed bugs took place at Prince William County complex on Tuesday. However, it seemed that some of the people who attended were not aware of what might have been lurking close to them.

.

County spokesman Jason Grant said that the crawlies were found at the building's lobby, mail room, its couch in the budget office and even on a computer bag at its communication office. And following the discovery of them, he said that on Monday, a treatment was implemented. In addition, he said that they also contracted with a pest-control company.

MCP commented that although bed bugs don't transfer diseases, they could still negatively affect a person's general well-being. And as it explained, that's because besides leaving itchy and red bed bug bites, they also cause anxiety and paranoia.

Bed bug problem plaguing downtown Montgomery apartments

MONTGOMERY, AL (WSFA) -

Bed bugs continue to invade a Montgomery apartment complex and residents say they're fed up. WSFA received reports of residents at the Jefferson Davis Apartments suffering from bleeding sores on their arms and legsafter being attacked by bed bugs in their sleep. Now, tenants and the property management are speaking out about the pervasive infestation.

Harthus Barber says the tiny critters have invaded his bed and his life.

"The bed begs keep coming back. They would go away for 2-3 weeks when they would sprayand come right back. And as they came back, they would come back in droves. You would have maybe 3 or 4 bed bugs in your room and next thing you know, you have 15, 20 just crawling around and they come out at night. And that's the problem. You get attacked at night," he told WSFA.

Residents say it's a problem that's has been plaguing the downtown complex on Montgomery Street for severalyears.

"There's a lady that just left today. She's been here probably 15-20 years. And there's several people in the past 2-3 months that have been moving out on account of the bed bugs," added residentRichard Gilliland."It's a very horrible situation."

Their bites have left Barber, Gillilandand other tenants with itchy, painful sores and scars.

"You begin to feel a burning sensation and you start itching and scratching. Sometimes you scratch so hard that you will have a blister on your arm," Barber said.

"Some of the people have sores on them. I have scars on my arms where they've bit me," Gilliland added.

Several residents have even taken the property management to court over the bed bug infestation and litigation is ongoing.

Rise of Bed Bugs Prompts Emergency Meeting in Cincinnati, My Cleaning Products Offers Help to Residents With Tips and …

Cincinnati, OH (PRWEB) February 25, 2014

The cases of bed bugs in Ohio kept on rising. And to remedy it, Cincinnati's state representative called for an emergency meeting, said a report from thecincinnatiherald.com dated February 24, 2014. Meanwhile, reaching out to the residents, My Cleaning Products gave out complimentary Bed Bug Bully, its pesticide-exempt bed bug spray.

In the report, State Representative Dale Mallory (D-Cincinnati) particularly called for a meeting of the Joint Bed Bug Task Force. It was scheduled on February 27, 2014 at 5 p.m. at Theodore M. Berry Center, 880 West Court St., Cincinnati.

According to the news post, the agenda of the meeting would be the measures needed to be taken to solve the worsening bed bug problem in Ohio. However, it added that besides the officials and the member of the task force, pest control companies are also welcome to join.

Here is an excerpt from the report Bed Bugs Spur Emergency Meeting by My Cleaning Products.

It can't be denied. Bed bugs are now so prevalent. The worse part is, they are not done yet. They continue to spread causing havoc in any place they infest. And with Cincinnati among those cities becoming a favorite spot of them, State Representative Dale Mallory (D-Cincinnati) thought something must be done to control their presence, hence, the call for a meeting.

Actually, in the past few years, a number of cities in Ohio have already been on the annual top ten most-infested ranking. Cincinnati and Columbus are particularly two of those cities that have been on the list for a number of consecutive years. Needless to say, that's very alarming.

MCP stated that the fact bed bugs are still spreading despite them being already so prevalent should be taken by the people as a warning. That is warning to take preventive measures and ready themselves to kill bed bugs promptly.

As it said, that's because those critters could bring in bed bug bites that could swell and itch for days. Moreover, it cited that they could require a professional bed bug treatment, which could cause a huge spending, if not eliminated early.

However, when getting rid of bed bugs promptly, MCP said not to use chemical-based sprays. It stated that could harm the people's health, even the environment, with their content.
