Just three years ago, New York City residents suffered through a major bed bug crisis. Bed bugs, also known asCimex lectularius , are small parasitic insects that feed on human blood while you sleep.

"Bed bugs don't carry diseases, but that doesn't mean they're not a public health pest," Dr. Jim Fredericks of the National Pest Management Association tells us.

Bed bugs leave red, itchy welts on its victims, and they're also really good at hiding making them extremely difficult to get rid of. Oh, and they also have a genetic resistance to pesticides.

While the bed bug crisis of New York City seems to have calmed down, infestations are still on the rise and shouldn't be taken lightly.

Family Blames Housing Authority for Persistence of Bed Bugs, My Cleaning Products Comments the Pests Are Indeed …

September 17th, 2013 by admin

New York, NY (PRWEB) September 17, 2013

A family in New York City was plagued by bed bugs for more than a year already. And blaming the pests' persistence to the Housing Authority, a report from silive.com, published on September 16, 2013, stated that they demanded monetary relief from the agency. Meanwhile, agreeing that the vampire-like critters could indeed be insistent, My Cleaning Products suggested a pesticide-exempt product to eliminate the critters completely.

According to the news article, it was particularly the Aponte Family of Staten Island that decided to take legal action against NYC's Housing Authority over the presence of bed bugs in their apartment, My Cleaning Products shared. It detailed though that the amount they asked wasn't specified.

In the report, Blanch Aponte said that the bed bug problem in their unit, which started in August last year, forced them to an exile of sort, MCP relayed. It stated, based on her statement, that it kept her son and two daughters from sleepovers in the fear of carrying the critters to others. And as it added, it also left them with scabs all over.

The report said that the family's unit was already treated seven or eight times by an exterminator sent by the Housing Authority, related MCP. However, it stated that the pests continued to infest the place. And though she asked to be transferred, Blanch Aponte said that the agency did not comply.

Here's an excerpt from the post Staten Island Family Blames Housing Authority for Persistent Bed Bugs in Apartment by My Cleaning Products.

Once introduced into a place, bed bugs are very hard to get rid. A family in Staten Island learned that the hard way after living with those critters for a year and a half. And for that, they are asking the city to pay for the incurred damages.

The Apontes were particularly the ones demanding for payment. Blanche and Jose Aponte filed a suit, specifically against the New York City's Housing Authority for the more-than-a-year-long presence of the tiny vampire-like insects in their Mariners Harbor apartment.

Bed bugs could be indeed insistent said My Cleaning Products. However, transferring a house or throwing away the contaminated items could not keep them away forever, it stated. So, rather than taking those steps, it advised the public to learn how to prevent and kill bed bugs promptly instead.

Preventing bed bugs or eliminating them immediately, in case they get past the preventive measures, could save one from a major infestation, MCP said. In turn, that could spare a person from a huge bed bug expense, it concluded.

Back-to-School Time Heightens Bed Bug Awareness, EcoRaider Provides Remedy

September 2nd, 2013 by admin

New York, NY (PRWEB) August 29, 2013

With grade school, secondary school and college-age students returning to classrooms these weeks, parents and administrators are on high alert for the invasion of bed bugs throughout the institutions. Just last month, for example, New York University law school responded to an increasing number of service requests relating to suspected bed bug infestations. A number of the cases were resolved without any need for treatment, but the alarm bells rang through the minds of students, staff and faculty on campus.

The problem, which has been featured in high profile magazines and newspapers across the country and has taken over web discussion groups, propelled the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene to launch a portal devoted to the subject. They note that people can react to bites in a variety of ways, ranging from itchy bites to severe swelling. Even before an actual infestation, a number of individual students may also suffer sleeplessness from the anxiety of being bitten, a side effect which may be especially damaging to an academic career.

Mr. Vince Yancoskie of EcoRaider, Inc., an expert in the field and manager of the environmentally safe bed bug treatment reminded students that bed bugs travel by crawling within walls and latching onto clothing. In a college environment characterized by heavy foot traffic in apartments and dorm rooms, bedbugs have a high chance of spreading to other locations in the school. "In a school environment where clothing, books and furniture are shared on a regular basis, there is no shortage of ways the creatures can travel throughout an institution," he said.

Bedbugs hide in small crevices and pockets such as those found in mattresses, backpacks, sweaters, and jeans. One of the tiny creatures simply has to crawl into a purse, be transported to a lecture hall, and escape to reproduce and unleash an infestation of the librarys padded chairs.

Adding to the concern of students and parents alike the latter fearing their students return home for winter break bringing bed bugs with them traditional preventive measures to quell the spread of ordinary bugs are not applicable to bed bugs. Objects and their environments must be regularly inspected for miniscule signs of an infestation. Mattresses are covered in plastic to eliminate them as possible hiding places. In the case of an infestation on the NYU campus, a professional exterminator was called in to treat the affected area and ensure success with several follow up visits.

Manufacturers of bed bug treatments have taken note of the vast infestation and have invested heavily in finding better solutions. One issue is that since by definition, bed bugs live in close contact to human beings on which they feed, there has been concern about the safety of these sprays and powders to the environment and to people. But while the number of pesticides being offered on the market is on the rise, few are effective and the vast majority contains chemicals especially toxic to humans.

However, there are alternative solutions. A study, conducted by the entomology lab of Rutgers University, examined the effectiveness of environmentally safe products as they battled against the bed bugs. One product, EcoRaider, was found to be the most effective natural bed bug spray killer on the market. It is the only formula that has a 100% efficacy rate against bed bugs, with a 90% mortality rate within the first hour. Another study confirmed that EcoRaiders formula was dermatologically safe for use around children and pets.

Many products aspire to get the Food and Drug Administrations coveted GRAS compliance and EcoRaider, now found at Home Depot and other outlets has attained that designation.

Bed bugs have been a scourge for human beings for centuries. But scientists and inventors are fighting back to make sure that the main thing on a students mind is the next days exam, not the bed bug problem in the next dormitory room.

Report Says Bed Bugs Infested NYC's Health Department, My Cleaning Products Warns City's Residents of the Pests and …

August 9th, 2013 by admin

New York, NY (PRWEB) August 08, 2013

Because they are fast and small, bed bugs could infiltrate any place. According to a report from medicaldaily.com, they were even able to sneak their way into New York Health Department. And in response to it, My Cleaning Products again warned the city's residents of the pests. It also offered them help with complimentary bed bug spray.

The report, published on August 06, 2013, said that the infestation affected five of the twenty-one floors of the department's office, My Cleaning Products related. And though the building was just three years old, it shared that this reported bed bug incident was already its second case.

In the news, it was said that an estimated 316 million dollars was already spent by the health department to solve the problem, shared MCP. However, it relayed that the office denied they were infested by bed bugs.

Here is an excerpt from the post Bed Bugs Infest New York Health Department by My Cleaning Products.

New York is now considered a hotspot of bed bugs. And with the high number of people going in and out of it everyday, it's not a surprise.

But though bed bugs are known to trespass any place, a recent report about those vampire-like insects infesting Big Apples' health department shocked many. After all, health departments everywhere are expected to be the first ones to know how to prevent their presence.

Though they are not considered as health threats, My Cleaning Products said that bed bugs still need to be prevented or eliminated. As it explained, they could cause inconveniences, annoyance and anxiety that generally destroy wellness.

However, when getting rid of the pests, it cleared that the process must be immediate. That's so bed bugs could be prevented from multiplying and requiring costly professional help, it said.

Even with a prompt bed bug treatment though, MCP cited that one couldn't completely eliminate those crawlies without help. And among the many products, it asserted that Bed Bug Bully is that best help bed bug victims could get.

NEW YORK, NY (WPIX/CNN) - The New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene is dealing with its own case of bed bugs.

The infected building is 21 stories tall and houses 4,000 employees. This is the second time the bugs have been found in the three-year-old structure.

The health department said that a small number of bed bugs have been found, but it is not an infestation.

"You're really going to be a hero if you're honest. We say, look we know there is a problem, now let's figure it out," Rick Moskovitz, president of A-Plus Pest Control. "It's not exterminating companies. I'm in the business. The industry is not solving the problem."

New York is consistently one of the most bed bug-infested cities in the United States.

How’s that for irony? New report claims NYC’s Health Department is CRAWLING with bed bugs

August 6th, 2013 by admin

(PIX11) They are listed as the citys go-to agency for information on preventing and remedying bed bug infestations.

But now, the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene is reportedly dealing with its own nasty case of bed bugs.

How does this happen?

Its the piece of real estate that boasts a price tag of $316 million but it still isnt enough to ward off an apparent bed bug infestation.

According to the New York Post, the fancy piece of property known as 2 Gotham Center which houses the Health Departments 4,000 employees has a bed bug problem that the department is trying to downplay.

At least five floors of the 21-story building is said to be crawling with the pests.

Whats even more shocking, this is the second time in less than a year that a bed bug was found in the 3-year-ol d building.

The bug scare at the Health Department happens on the day a new report is released ranking New York City #1 when it comes to being the worst in bed bug infestations.

Experts say the latest ranking and this stubborn bed bug problem should serve as a wake-up call for the city, which say there is an under-reporting problem.

Its an issue of just saying, Ok, lets figure it out. Lets admit and how are we going to solve it, said Rick Moskovitz, president of A-Plus Pest Control in Chicago.

New Bed Bug Trap Lures Bloodsuckers

August 6th, 2013 by admin

East Coast urbanites especially those in New York City are all too familiar with seeing warning labels on curbed furniture and wrapped mattresses to know that the scourge of bed bugs is never to be underestimated.

PHOTOS: Tasty Tech Eye Candy of the Week

Helping fight the good fight against these tiny, blood-sucking parasites are three researchers from the Rutgers University Department of Entomology who say theyve designed a new pitfall trap that catches more bed begs than other traps currently available on the market.

Narinderpal Singh, Changlu Wang, and Richard Cooper published their findings in s new article in the Journal of Economic Entomology and found that their trap caught more than two-fold the amount of bed bugs than the Climbup insect interceptor trap, which the authors cite as the best monitor on the market. The researchers baited their pitfall trap with spearmint oil and Egyptian coriander oil, as opposed to talc, which the Climbup insect interceptor uses as bait. Additionally, carbon dioxide known to attract bed bugs was employed, using CO2 cylinders and sugar and yeast, which is cheap to produce.

The new pitfall trap consists of a plastic dog bowl thats been inverted, with the outer wall covered with a layer of dyed-black surgical tape. The researchers contend that higher walls make their trap more effective than the interceptor trap because its harder for bugs to escape.

While these traps dont necessarily kill bed bugs thus theyre frequently referred to as monitors they are intended to serve as pro-active, early detection devices. If bed begs start showing up in the traps, its time to call in the big guns: pest control exterminators. Speaking of which, if youre wondering what the war against bed bugs is like, heres a dispatch from the front lines, courtesy of the Gothamist.

Please Wrap Your Discarded Mattress, It’s The Law Whether You Have Bed Bugs Or Not (You Probably Do)

June 29th, 2013 by admin

The end of the month is nigh, and if you're moving out come June 30th, you may be inclined to toss your mattress and/or bedframe. But if you do choose to leave your bed for the Sanitation Department, remember that beds are home base for everyone's favorite household parasite from hell, and New York City law requires that you wrap your mattress in plastic before putting it out on the street. Or else.

We spotted this bare futon mattress lounging outside a Bushwick apartment building this morning, its downy nooks and crannies rife with homes for hungry bed bugs and their eggs. This isn't the first time we've seen an unwrapped mattress thus disposed in the neighborhoodone that is certainly no stranger to bedbugsand we doubt that it'll be the last. But even if you are one million, trillion percent convinced you are bug-and-fancy-free, all mattresses, including futon mattresses, and box springs must be encased in a sealed plastic bag when discarded for trash pickup. And if the threat of a $100 fine doesn't scare you, maybe the threat of being under bed bug siege will, because though your mattress is probably devoid of buggies, your neighbor's might not be.

Bed bug complaints in the city have decreased since they took the city by nightmarish storm in 2011. But just because people aren't complaining about them doesn't mean they're not biting, and they tend to increase their activity in the summer. In conclusion, bed bugs are in your clothes, schools, library books and Rupert Murdoch-owned newspaper offices, but most of all they're in your beds, so wrap them up (BUT DON'T BURN THEM) before they crawl into your brain and take nightly bites out of your parietal lobe, too.

Innovative New Nanotechnology Stops Bed Bugs in Their Tracks – Literally

June 5th, 2013 by admin

Newswise STONY BROOK, NY, MAY 30, 2013 Bed bugs now need to watch their step. Researchers at Stony Brook University have developed a safe, non-chemical resource that literally stops bed bugs in their tracks. This innovative new technology acts as a man-made web consisting of microfibers 50 times thinner than a human hair which entangle and trap bed bugs and other insects. This patent-pending technology is being commercialized by Fibertrap, a private company that employs non-toxic pest control methods.

The nanotech solution was developed at Stony Brook Universitys Center for Advanced Technology in Sensor Materials (Sensor CAT), a program funded by NYSTAR, as part of a statewide effort to encourage greater technological and economic collaboration between industry and research universities.

Our nanotechnology produces entanglements that are millions of times more dense than woven products such as fabrics or carpets, said lead researcher Miriam Rafailovich, Distinguished Professor of Materials Science and Engineering and Co-Director in the Program of Chemical and Molecular Engineering at Stony Brook University. The microfibers trap them by attaching to microstructures on their legs taking away their ability to move, which stops them from feeding and reproducing.

Successful tests were performed using live bed bugs and termites in Professor Rafailovichs lab with the assistance of Ying Liu, a scientist with Stony Brook Universitys Advanced Energy Research and Technology Center and Stony Brook graduate students Shan He and Linxi Zhang.

Kevin McAllister, Fibertraps co-founder added, We are very excited to move this advancement from the lab to the consumer. Our goal has always been to make a difference for people living in areas where bed bugs are pervasive and difficult to eradicate.

The microfibers are safe for humans and pets and unlike chemical treatments the insects cannot develop a resistance to it.

About Bed Bugs Bed bugs (Cimex lectularius) are small, flat, parasitic insects that feed solely on the blood of people and animals while they sleep. Bed bugs are reddish-brown in color, wingless, range from one millimeter (mm) to seven mm (roughly the size of Lincolns head on a penny), and can live several months without a blood meal.

Infestation Bed bug infestations usually occur around or near the areas where people sleep. These areas include apartments, shelters, rooming houses, hotels, cruise ships, buses, trains and dorm rooms. They hide during the day in places such as seams of mattresses, box springs, bed frames, headboards, dresser tables, inside cracks or crevices, behind wallpaper or any other clutter or objects around a bed. Bed bugs have been shown to be able to travel over 100 feet in a night but tend to live within eight feet of where people sleep. A bed bug bite affects each person differently. Bite responses can range from an absence of any physical signs of the bite, to a small bite mark, to a serious allergic reaction. Bed bugs are not considered to be dangerous; however, an allergic reaction to several bites may need medical attention. (Source: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) For more information please check out the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Bed Bug FAQs.

Statistics New York City consistently ranks in the top 10 or 15 cities with the worst bed bug problem across the nation. An annual list released by Orkin Pest Control based upon bed bug business in U.S. cities, lists Chicago as having the worst bed bug problem for 2012; New York City comes in at #10.
