According to Heather Cook, Kingsport director of marketing and public relations, the issue was detected Thursday on the first floor of the facility located at 1200 E. Center St. Thats where the Kingsport Senior Center operates, offering Wellness programs, games, an exercise room, classes and other activities for people 50 years of age and older.

The Senior Center closed early Thursday, and a city-contracted pest control business sprayed the first floor the next morning. It remained closed the rest of that day and the next. The Senior Center is always closed on Sundays.

Cook said the Renaissance Center has never had past issues with bedbugs, and last weeks discovery has now been resolved. No other operations in the facility were altered.

The building, which is managed by the Office of Cultural Arts, also houses an art gallery on the second floor, 350-seat theater and a variety of rooms available to rent for meetings and parties. It formerly served as John Sevier School and was renovated in 1991.

In March 2015, the Rogersville Senior Center and H.B. Stamps Public Library, which share a building, were closed for a few days to spray for bedbugs. According to the Tennessee Department of Health, bedbugs are not as common as other pests.

The adult bedbug is about a quarter-inch long and reddish brown. Young nymph bedbugs are smaller and light in color. Bedbugs are flat, allowing them to fit into small cracks and crevices, and they usually bite at night. They are often transported in clothing, furniture and luggage.

Question: Hello.Do you provide bed bug extermination service? If so, how much does it cost?

ANSWER: Getting rid of bed bugs can be very difficult. There is no magic wand which can control these blood-sucking pests. Control of bed bugs can take time and multiple follow-up treatments.

The first part of any bed bug control program is a thorough inspection. This includes not only areas that are infested, but also adjoining areas. The inspection can be time consuming, based upon amount of furnishings and size of infested area as well as the adjoining areas.

When treatment is needed, pricing will depend on the size of the area to be treated as well as the type of treatment. If standard control, using products specifically applied for bed bugs, you can expect to remove carpet edges where necessary, perhaps outlet plates and some personal belongings. If heat treatment is used in areas offering that service, certain materials must be removed such as candles, makeup, etc.

Since there are so many possibilities, it is impossible to make a blanket statement about the cost to get rid of bed bugs in every case.

The conditions of each property are different, and therefore the problems are different for each house. Thus, quotes and estimates for the cost of bed bug control are best done locally and perhaps after an inspection by a qualified Pest Specialist.

The first step in this process is to call your local Orkin Pest Control Branch location and request a bed bug inspection.A highly trained and bed bug-qualified Orkin Pest Specialist will conduct a very thorough inspection of your premises.Upon completion of the inspection and an assessment of the situation, the Pest Specialist will recommend a customized solution for your bed bug problem, which will include pricing and guarantees.

Bed Bugs are tiny insects that feed on the blood of humans and animals. Adult bed bugs are reddish brown in color and are 5-7 mm in length. Bed bugs can be found anywhere, but most commonly in areas where people sleep such as bedding, mattresses, and bed frames. In most cases bed bugs are not a sign of unclean or unsanitary environments.

Bed bugs can travel on people, suitcases, clothing, and any other portable item. Because of this, bed bugs have been found in upscale hotels. Bed Bugs are most active at night and bite any exposed areas of the skin. A person may not feel the bite as it is happening, but will notice a red bump and experience itching anywhere from a few minutes to days later. In most cases, bed bug bites can go untreated. The bumps will eventually go away, but more bites will occur if the infestation is not taken care of.

We offer bed bug inspections* to homeowners in Tennessee, including Anderson, Clinton, Corryton, Eagleton Village, Friendsville, Harrogate, Knoxville, Loudon, Maryville, Midway, Powell, Sharps Chapel, Sevierville, Tazewell, White Pine, and nearby areas.

Contact us today, and you'll be one step closer to a safe, healthy home.

Bed bugs are very small so they may be hard to detect. Along with bed bugs, fecal matter and eggs may also be present in the area they inhabit. Bed bugs move, but their waste and eggs do not. Look for dark spots and shed skin on your mattress. If you lift your bedding, you may see the bed bugs scurry away because they prefer to be in the dark. Check seams of your mattress to see if you can spot the bed bugs. Unlike mosquito bites, bed bug bites are usually in a form of a straight line along a blood vessel. If you see any of the above, you most likely have a bed bug infestation.
