Pesticides have been found to be moderately effective at killing bed bugs, however, pesticide treatments are typically ineffective at killing hidden bed bugs. "Because of pesticide-resistant bed bugs, many pest control companies have begun using heat treatments to eliminate bed bugs," according to Bobby Anderson, President of Environmental Heat Solutions, Inc.

The Jordan-Newby library in Norfolk, Virginia faced a bed bug outbreak that forced a temporary library closure in order to eliminate the infestation. This infestation is yet another sign that bed bugs are not confined to America's bedrooms. From homes to businesses, bed bug infestations are becoming an increasingly common problem in America. Increasing insecticide resistance on the part of bed bugs, coupled with fears about the long-term effects of insecticide exposure on humans and pets, has resulted in many groups seeking an alternate bed bug treatment method. Fortunately, bed bug heat treatments can be used to effectively remove a bed bug infestation without necessitating the use of potentially dangerous chemicals. This is how Environmental Heat Solutions can help.

Undeniably, bed bugs are extremely difficult pests to control. This is because they have perfected the art of hiding in tiny crevices and cracks. A home can provide these tiny intruders numerous hiding locations such as toys, knick-knacks, clothing, electronics, and books. Most if not all bed bug populations are highly resistant to those insecticides that are registered for their control. Consequently, pest management professionals and homeowners have been on the lookout for novel, non-chemical methods of getting rid of bed bugs in and out of household items.

Previously bed bugs were associated with uncleanliness. However, Environmental Heat Solutions warns that today they have become a menace all over the world. So, where do they come from? Here is an insight.

Every year, millions of Americans are affected by the menace of bed bugs. With the number set to increase in the foreseeable future, Environmental Heat Solutions has embraced the task of educating individuals on how to effectively use heat to treat bed bugs. Heat treatment is fast emerging as a green and practical treatment approach and is quickly being adopted by many. "We do not only aim to treat bed bugs, but we also aim at doing so in an environmentally friendly way through heat treatment." These are the words of Bobby Anderson, President of Environmental Heat Solutions Inc, speaking on the advantage of heat treatment. Heat treatment entails getting the interior level of heat in a house to a level that bedbugs cannot survive. Sometimes it might be impossible to sight bedbugs and their eggs. Heat treatment hunts them down in the deepest of their hideout places and exterminates them.

The Purcellville School District Superintendent is requesting parents to be on the lookout for bed bugs. This is after employees discovered one inside a locker at Loudoun Valley High School. School leaders did not close the school.

In October, bed bugs were found in a cubicle belonging to the Department of Information Technology in the City Hall of Richmond, VA. As a result, the city was forced to call in bed bug exterminators, meaning that much of the location was rendered unusable until the bed bug extermination process was complete. This is not the first time that this has happened, seeing as how there was a similar incident at around the same time in 2014.

No one knows bed bugs like the professionals at Envirnomental Heat Solutions, but consumers do know that finding bed bugs is a problem for anyone, especially those in the hotel industry. Even with a thorough inspection, and taking great care to toss all clothing and other items, such as pillows and blankets directly into a hot dryer for thirty minutes upon returning home, it is still possible to end up with a residence filled with the rotten little critters.

The residents of a housing development in Wilmerding, PA, are being scarred for life over the pesky problem of bed bugs. What's worse is that the residents believe that the Housing and Redevelopment Authority isn't doing enough to handle the issue. Residents are being eaten alive in their own homes while they sleep, and they are demanding a response from the authorities who run these developments.

With summer in full swing, hotels in the Virginia and Washington D.C. area have customers filling up the complaint reporting sites with complaints of finding bed bugs in their hotel rooms. From here say to solid photo and time stamped video proof, they have it all covered but still complain they are not being heard and nothing is being done to fix the problem.
