Some people think that the increase in bed bug activity is because more people are on the move during the summer months. Some believe it is because of the warmer temperatures. Now that the fall season has come, do you think we will see a drop in bed bug sightings? That’s doubtful!
As a big welcome into autumn, two giants in the retail world have already fallen victim to creepy bed bugs. Macy’s just announced that they have found bed bugs sneaking around their corporate offices in New York City. So far, they have not found the buggers in their beautiful stores that are located just below the posh offices. The trouble is that bed bugs are opportunistic hitchhikers and could easily be transported from the offices above to the shopper’s paradise below. Bed bugs are also known for the incredible ability to find their way through tiny cracks and crevices to any location in any building. These little monsters can easily go a year without a blood meal so it’s easy for them to go undetected thus allowing an infestation to explode right under a retailer’s nose.
Please check back on Friday for the conclusion.
