Bed Bugs Menace Continues in New York City

Doctors recommend that we all should take at least 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep every night. But in today’s hectic life, most of us aren’t lucky enough to get that many hours to spend dreaming in our bed. That’s why; it becomes even more important to make sure that whatever hours we get to sleep, they should be totally peaceful and comfortable. You should not let anything interrupt your sleep as only a well-slept person can be 100% energetic and efficient at his work.

But as it has been seen in the past few months in New York and many other states of America, people are being practically harassed by the presence of bed bugs in their homes. Most of the people and even services of exterminators in NYC are extremely stunned by the growing population of bed bugs in their homes, shops and offices.

Until a few years ago, bed bugs were unheard of in cities like New York, but now they have become a headache for the residents of this city. Their presence has got to a point that people have started calling it an epidemic. The reason behind this infestation is a topic of debate. Some people think that it is because of the climate change and global warming, while others take it as just as infestation that has grown to huge proportion due to the large population of the cities. Some people also suggest that this problem points out that the infestation is a sign that our homes and cities are not as clean as we think they are.

Whatever the real reason might be, the truth is that bed bugs in NYC have become a nuisance of colossal proportion and we must fight them. But before we tell you how to fight this menace, you must know what these bugs really are.

What are bed bugs?

Contrary to their name, Beg bugs are not exclusive to beds. These tiny pests come from the Cimicidae family of insects. They drink blood to survive and can bite anyone from animals to people. They hide in soft and confined places where they get direct contact with skin tissues of animals and humans.

Bed bugs are called so, because they mostly bite us during night time, when we are asleep as they need a body in stationary position, to feed themselves. But bed bugs can also bite you during day time. Their bites are often confused with that of mosquitoes because both leave the similar “tiny and itchy red mark on the skin. This is because bed bugs bite us in a manner similar to mosquitoes. They insert a tiny tentacle inside the skin to suck the blood out. To dilute the blood, they first release a protein inside our veins. This makes it easier for them to drink the blood.

How do bed bugs spread?

Bed bugs can spread through anything warm and soft. It can be our clothes, luggage, hair, body or our pets. The worst part of this epidemic is that it is very difficult to safeguard one’s home or office against them. They can commute through anything and can survive on the upholstery, carpets, mattresses or anything that gives them a warm and humid place to survive.

Even you can be the source of bed bugs into your house. If you stay in a hotel, live in a friend’s house, eat in a restaurant where they have bed bugs, then you can also become their carrier.
