***Live Bed Bugs in my hotel room*** – Review of Homewood …

Posted on January 21, 2015 by admin Click Here For Article

I stayed at the Homewood Suites from 11/17-11/20 and after the first night I woke up and found a live bed bug under my pillow. I removed all the sheets and pilllowcases and didn't find any additional bed bugs. However, later that day the hotel hired a company to search the room and they found 6 additional live bed bugs!

The hotel moved me to another room and I requested they check my second room, which they did and didn't find live bugs (not sure about dead ones). I asked them to clean/fumigate my second room with my contents in it so for the third night I had to move to a third room and could only bring the clothes I was wearing. A total inconvenience since it was in the 20's outside so I didn't leave the hotel room all afternoon/evening.

On the last morning in my third room I was surprised to wake up with a full priced bill under the door! When I asked to speak to the GM, Marianne Alberti, she was unavailable so I spoke to the assistant GM. He said that I shouldn't have any recompense because they accommodated me by staying in three rooms in three days (one with bed bugs).

My impression was that this happens often because I'm a Hilton Honors Diamond VIP and I didn't even get as much as an apology from the GM - I still have never spoken to or heard from her! I thought 200,000 Hilton Honors points would be appropriate, which is equal to three free nights stay in a Hilton property. They laughed and said that was not possible and they would not do that. Without approval from me they ended up putting 70,000 points in my account - enough for one night's stay in a Hilton Hotel.

Obviously I would never stay here again. I don't think they should treat anyone the way I was treated, much less a Diamond VIP member who almost exclusively stays at Hilton properties. I have lost any allegiance I had to Hilton.

Ouch! Denver ranks eighth among U.S. cities for bed bugs

Posted on January 21, 2015 by admin Click Here For Article

Bedbug have made a comeback in US cities, including Denver, which ranks 8th according to Orkin. (HO/AFP/Getty Images)

Denver ranked eighth among U.S. cities for the severity of its bedbug infestation last year, according to a report Thursday from Orkin, the pest-control firm.

Atlanta-based Orkin, which has a nationwide presence, compared cities based on the number of bedbug treatments the firm performed. Denver-Aurora, which ranks 21st for population among metro areas, moved up from ninth in 2013 to eighth last year but has improved from the No. 4 ranking held in 2012 and 2011.

Combined, Colorado Springs and Pueblo ranked 44th among the cities studied, down from 42nd in 2013.

Chicago, for the third year in a row, reported the most severe infestation, with the hard-to-shake pests taking hold in numerous public spaces, including downtown office buildings, police and fire stations, schools and a movie theater, Orkin reported.

At one point, the U.S. seemed to have conquered bedbugs, with infestations dormant for several decades. But the blood-sucking pests reappeared with a vengeance at the turn of the millennium.

Nationally, Americans spent $70 million to treat infestations back in 2004. In 2013, they spent $446 million.

Orkin reports an 18 percent jump last year in revenues related to bedbug treatments.

Although bedbugs don't transmit diseases like other insects, they can cause skin problems, disrupt sleep and contribute to social isolation and psychological stress.

This month, the National Pest Management Association hosted a global conference that drew 450 people to Denver to discuss bedbugs and how to eliminate them.

Bed Sized Bed Bug Trap LLC Develops New Trap with the Goal …

Bed Sized Bed Bug Trap LLC has invented a unique trap designed to make all other methods of bed bug control obsolete. The company is seeking investors who want to build a business to meet the $450 million demand of this market.

Princeton Jct, NJ (PRWEB) January 20, 2015

Bed Sized Bed Bug Trap LLC has invented a nonchemical trap that stops bed bug bites on the first day and kills 100 percent of them in weeks. This new trap has been fashioned to make traditional methods of bed-bug control, such as pesticides, vacuuming, organic remedies, zippered mattresses, and steam cleaning, obsolete. Dahai Dong, the companys founder, said the ultimate goal is to force the bed bug into extinction.

Dahai Dong invented the trap when his home was infested, and he needed to keep his sleeping area bed bug free. At first, he used various sticky tapes to build a barrier around the bed, but the effort failed because the pests crawled over them. He then used fly-catching tape, but this effort also proved unsuccessful as the tape left an uncomfortable residual on his skin and blanket. His third design, however, was a success, resulting in a one-of-a-kind trap that formed an invisible barrier between the bed bugs and him.

This trap, playfully called Bed Bug Terminator, is a special cover placed directly on the bed. The cover is crafted with an edge of special double-sided tape, one which leaves no residue behind. It comes in twin, full, queen, and king sizes, and the trap can be assembled in minutes with a few quick and easy steps.

When bed bugs travel toward the bed, attracted by the warmth and carbon dioxide produced by the sleeper, the sticky edge ensnares them, ensuring they never reach their human meal. Since pests survive off blood alone, any trapped critters soon starve, preventing them from repopulating the home with future generations.

The companys method also includes extra double-sided tape to further protect the house. When placed on the beds headboard as well as chair and furniture legs, this tape provides an extra layer of defense against the infestation.

Bed Sized Bed Bug Trap has received many questions about its products and bed bugs. Here is a list of FAQs and the companys answers.
