Travel bans, stay-at-home orders, and a general shift to remote working have left these critters with fewer tramp opportunities, and yet they’ve found a way to stay close. Bed bugs attach themselves to people, clothing, and furniture. All it takes is an airplane seat, a hotel bed, or even an office chair for those pesky bed bugs to invade your space.
Due to their ability to double the population about every 16 days, bed bugs will not have a difficult time getting a grip on Canadians again. With blood as their only source of food, bed bugs primarily feed on people who usually eat dinner between midnight and 5 a.m These dedicated bloodsucking insects can travel as far as 100 feet in search of a meal, quite a trek for these small but resilient creatures. When Canadians start to travel, whether to the office or on vacation, so will bed bugs.
Concerned Canadians can bolster their offense with proactive prevention tips, such as: B. carefully inspecting furniture and clothing after guests have left your home, drying potentially infested bedding or clothing on the highest temperature setting, and sealing cracks in walls, crown molding, and bed frames. A professional pest controller can also help deal with problems should they arise.
