Why DIY Treatments Often Make Things Worse

When residents try:

* Foggers
* Store-bought sprays
* Essential oils
* Rubbing alcohol

The bugs often scatter into walls and neighboring rooms. Killing the bugs you see isn’t the same as eliminating the infestation.

🎒 Your backpack, purse, laptop bag, or coat could be doing more traveling than you think.

Recent reports of bed bugs in a federal office building highlight an important fact:

Bed bugs don’t just live in beds.

They can be found in:
• Office chairs
• Cubicles
• Break rooms
• Personal belongings
• Shared workspaces

Bed bugs are expert hitchhikers.

That’s why awareness and regular inspections matter—not just at home, but in workplaces too.

🚫 WHAT NOT TO DO AFTER TRAVELING THIS WEEKEND 🧳✈️

After a long trip, most people do this immediately:

❌ Put luggage on the bed
❌ Toss dirty clothes on the floor
❌ Store suitcases directly in closets
❌ Unpack everything into bedrooms right away

Unfortunately, that’s one of the easiest ways bed bugs can spread into a home.

Instead, when returning from travel:

✔ Inspect luggage outside or on hard surfaces
✔ Wash and dry clothing on HIGH heat
✔ Vacuum suitcase seams and pockets
✔ Keep luggage away from beds and upholstered furniture
✔ Store suitcases in garages, laundry rooms, or storage areas if possible

A few extra minutes after traveling can help prevent months of frustration later.

Safe travels from ECO Bed Bug Exterminators.
