Bed Bugs on the Rise!
Despite the reduction of travel during covid, bed bugs have seemed to prevail and are on the rise. Bed bugs being dormant during this time only means they did not travel around but waited patiently for their blood meal which research shows can be over a year. If an establishment had bed bugs before the pandemic, chances of them still being there are high. According to Dr. Richard Naylor, director and chief entomologist at The Bed Bug Foundation, “If they’ve been dormant for months, bed bugs will be highly aggressive, particularly when it’s dark”. This means bed bugs are much more likely to bite when a host returns.
The Canine’s Brain
The part of a canine’s brain that is devoted to smelling is 40 times greater than ours in size. They also possess up to 300 million olfactory receptors in their nose, compared to about six million in humans. Thanks to their olfactory system, a dog can detect the scent of a single bed bug and/or viable eggs. Humans don’t typically notice infestations until it’s too late, mostly because the bed bugs are so elusive. By the time you can visually see one or two they are everywhere.

Bed bugs can be found just about anywhere. Movie theaters, medical centers, retail stores, Airbnb’s and office settings to name a few. Being proactive with inspections is the best approach to defeating bed bugs, saving reputations, reducing the amount of treatments, and money.
