How do I know if I have bed bugs?

For more information, go to: http://www.epa.gov/bedbugs/#identify

If I find bed bugs in my home, how do I notify my landlord?

If you find bed bugs, you should immediately tell your landlord.

To get a form letter you can use to request bed bug repairs from your landlord, go to: http://www.MontanaLawHelp.org, then click on Housing and then Repairs.

I am moving in to a new apartment or home. How can I tell if bed bugs have been a problem in the new place in the past? Does my landlord have to tell me if there has been an earlier problem?

Other than notifying my landlord, what are my other responsibilities as a tenant if I find bed bugs? What are my landlords responsibilities if I find bed bugs and notify them?

Both you and your landlord have responsibilities in the landlord/tenant relationship. After you notify your landlord, your responsibilities do not stop there. Below is a list of responsibilities that tenants and landlords have when a problem that requires repairs, like bed bugs, is present.

(1) Tenants Responsibilities When Bed Bugs Are Present:

Tenants have a responsibility under the law to keep their home as safe and clean as is reasonably possible. Unfortunately, bed bugs are as likely to infest a safe and clean home as they are a dirty and unsafe home.

Bed Bugs

Bed bugs (Cimex lectularius) are small, flat, parasitic insects that only feed on the blood of humans and animals while they sleep. They are reddish-brown in color, about 1mm to 7mm in size, and can live for several months without a blood meal. Bed bugs are not known to spread diseases, but their presence can cause itching and loss of sleep. Excessive scratching can increase the chance of secondary skin infections. Bed bugs are found all over the world and the cleanliness does not determine the presence of bed bugs.

Symptoms usually appear one to several days after initial bite, and may take up to 14 days to appear. Symptoms include:

Some people may not have a reaction to the bites and may not develop bite marks at all.

Bed bugs hide in 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 during the day. Bed bugs are transmitted from place to place as people travel. They can be in the seams and folds of luggage, overnight bags, folded clothes, bedding, furniture, or anywhere else they find a place to hide.

There is no laboratory test to confirm bed bug bites. Bed bug infestations can be determined from an inspection and finding eggs or bed bugs.

Bed bug bites can be treated with antiseptic or hydrocortisone creams or lotions. An antihistamine can also be taken.

Bed bugs infestations can be treated by pesticides (make sure it specifically treats for bed bugs) or call a professional. Clean laundry and bedding by washing in hot water and drying with high heat. Steam cleaning can be effective, but be sure to check for bugs in a week or two. Concentrate in the areas they like to hide such as the seams. Bed bugs are sensitive to heat, so putting your mattress in a tight plastic bag and leaving it in the heat for several days can kill adults and the eggs. Vacuum your mattress and the areas around it. Be sure to immediately empty the vacuum cleaner and throw it out. If your mattress is infested, you may also consider getting a new mattress, but be sure to take care of the rest of your home so that your new mattress doesnt get infested.

There is no immunity to bed bugs.

There are no statistics on how many homes have been infested with bed bugs in Hawaii. However bed bugs can be found everywhere, and can be transported through travelers.

Inspect furniture before bringing into your home. Remove any clutter around your bed. Eliminate hiding places for bed bugs such as sealing crevices, repair peeling wall paper, and tighten loose light switches. Be aware when you travel so you do not bring bed bugs home with you.

Youngstown news, Contract approved for bed-bug treatment – Youngstown Vindicator

Posted on February 17, 2017 by Pest Controller Click Here For Article

Published: Thu, February 16, 2017 @ 9:59 p.m.

YOUNGSTOWN

The board of commissioners of the Youngstown Metropolitan Housing Authority has approved a contract with a pest-control company for bed-bug treatment in its buildings.

The one-year agreement with Bug Patrol of Ohio LLC of Columbus, which the board approved Thursday, begins April 1 in an amount not to exceed $30,000, with three one-year renewal options under those terms.

About 60 of the authoritys more than 1,200 apartments have required bed-bug treatment over the past year, most of them in high-rise buildings, said Jim Winston, the authoritys director of operations.

The high rises may be more susceptible to bed-bug transmission because of their concentration of apartments close to each other and because of their common areas, such as community rooms, he said.

I just wish we didnt have to deal with them. Thats unfortunate that people have to deal with bugs biting them. I dont like people dealing with that, so we do address these immediately, Winston said of bed-bug complaints.

When bed bugs are found in an apartment, that apartment and the apartments on either side of it and above and below it need to be treated, he said.

Winston said YMHA likely spent more than $30,000 on bed-bug treatment last year.

The cost is outrageous, Winston said. However, he added: We are reducing the cost, just by education and awareness, including information presented at resident council meetings.

Its something that comes and goes. We get like a rash of them [bed-bug complaints], but our biggest challenge is: People are not reporting to us. Then it gets a little out of control, Winston said of the bed-bug problem.

People dont want to admit that they have bed bugs. ... People are ashamed, so our challenge is, one, getting it reported in time, and two is educating the residents concerning bed-bug identification and prevention and remediation strategies, he said.

The authority does not charge its residents for bed-bug treatments, but it does not reimburse them for furnishings and other belongings that must be discarded due to bed-bug infestation, Winston said.

In other action, the board adopted a resolution and renamed its meeting room at Amedia Plaza in honor of Carmelita Douglas, its executive director, who will retire Feb. 28.

I am really grateful for the 23 years of service that I have spent with YMHAs family, and we are a family, Douglas told the board Thursday during her last board meeting as executive director.

Jason Whitehead, the authoritys deputy executive director, will succeed Douglas.

Bed bugs found at another DC elementary school – Story | WTTG – FOX 5 DC

Posted on February 17, 2017 by Pest Controller Click Here For Article

WASHINGTON - Bed bugs have popped up at another D.C. elementary school. This time, Miner Elementary School in Northeast D.C. is being affected by the pests.

This comes after about a bed bug and rodent problem at Savoy Elementary School caused D.C. Public Schools to close the school last week and temporarily relocate the students for cleaning of the building.

A D.C. Public Schools spokesperson said there were three instances that happened on Feb. 9, 14, and 15 where bed bugs were found students' clothing at Miner Elementary. The school district does not believe there is a widespread problem of bed bugs at the school. At this point, the school has not been shut down.

D.C. Public Schools spokesperson Michelle Lerner said in a statement:

"We are actively communicating with families and school staff about the three incidents (Feb. 9, Feb. 14, and Feb. 15) of bed bugs found on individuals at Miner Elementary. School staff immediately reported all incidents of bed bugs found and custodians are verifying that the spots around the incidents dont require further cleaning. Today, the DCPS operations and wellness teams met with staff at Miner Elementary to go over the protocol for identifying and reporting potential pests."

"Were continuing to monitor the situation, but we dont believe that this is a widespread infestation."

Miner Elementary School principal Andrea Mial sent home this letter to families:

"Dear Miner Elementary School Community,

"Here at Miner Elementary School, it is my priority to ensure that all students and staff are safe and the school environment is conducive to teaching and learning. To keep you informed on how we are doing this on an ongoing basis, I want to share an update regarding routine maintenance and cleaning at our school.

"Throughout the year, DC Public Schools (DCPS) proactively works with the Department of General Services (DGS) to prevent and treat any potential threat of pests (rodents, bugs, etc.) at all schools. DCPS and DGS work with school staff to identify the location of potential pests, complete a thorough inspection for entry points, fix any structural issues which may be a contributing factor, and bring in pest control services, including exterminators, if necessary. On a daily basis, the school custodian team is also committed to ensuring the building is thoroughly cleaned and free of unwanted waste that may attract pests.

"We follow strict protocols when any pest is identified here. First, we immediately confirm the details of the sighting. For example: what was seen, when it was seen, and in what area of the school. Then, our custodial foreman will evaluate the area and complete necessary cleaning and maintenance. If necessary, we will schedule pest control services to treat any particular area or location. Finally, if multiple exterminations are required, a broader communication to families via letter, email, and ConnectEd/Robo is disseminated.

"If the pest identified is a bed bug or lice, or another insect, it is the school nurse's role to identify, notify, and educate affected students, parents, and staff on next steps and available resources. Please note, students are not excluded from school for bed bugs or lice.

"As we continue to monitor the school with our agency partners, and conduct routine maintenance and cleaning, the entire school community plays a role in keeping our school building clean and safe. From properly disposing of all trash and unwanted food to keeping food limited to designated eating areas, we can together reduce the likelihood of unwanted pests. We want to thank you for keeping our school building clean and safe for all.

"Please reach out to me directly if you have any questions or if youd like to report an issue in the school building or any concerns regarding your childs well-being."

However, FOX 5 was contacted by staff members from Miner who believe bed bugs are a big problem there. They said the school has had a bed bug issue since January. On Thursday night, FOX 5 did see a pest control service vehicle parked in the parking lot at Miner.

Since news came out Thursday about the bed bugs at Miner, a concerned parent contacted FOX 5 saying a staff member at Stanton Elementary School in Northeast told them there was bed bug issue as well. We reached out to D.C. Public Schools about this, but they would not confirm if there was a case of bed begs at that school.

On Thursday, Savoy Elementary School said it will reopen on Feb. 27 after thorough cleaning and installation of new carpeting at the school.
