\"\"<\/a>New Jersey pest control<\/a> experts can attest to the fact that bed bug infestations<\/a> continue to plague residents of New Jersey as well as every other location in the United States.\u00a0 Making their presence known about ten years ago in New York City, reports of bed bug infestations<\/a> have continued to multiply instead of decrease.\u00a0 Industry experts believe that the rise in bed bugs can be blamed on a number of contributing factors:\u00a0 the lack of knowledge about the bloodsuckers, the ease of travel throughout the United States and abroad, and the apparent resistance to current pesticides to kill the nasty creatures that are available to pest control professionals.<\/p>\n

Apartments, hotels, motels, condos, hospitals, and other living communities with shared walls are known hot beds for bed bug activity because the critters can easily travel from unit to unit.\u00a0 Once they gain a stronghold, bed bugs can be very difficult and expensive to eradicate.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Taking their resurgence seriously has been swift for some states and slower for others.\u00a0Over the past few years, some state legislature committees have embraced creating bed bug related laws to protect the public, while others have steered clear of the issue altogether, believing that bed bugs are a nuisance pest and not a public threat.<\/p>\n

In New Jersey, Senate Bill No 2543 was first introduced by Senator Robert Singer in December of 2010.\u00a0 On August 25, 2011, with a vote of 37-0, the New Jersey State Senate passed new legislation to help protect some of the public from the creatures that typically bite in the night.\u00a0 The new Bill requires any \u201calternative residential facility\u201d to have a bed bug maintenance plan set in place with a licensed pest control expert and have an administrative policy for a response if bed bugs are found.\u00a0 Alternative residential facilities include:\u00a0 hospitals, nursing homes, rooming houses, homeless shelters, residential care facilities, hotels or housing offering single room occupancy.<\/p>\n

This new Bill is an important step in helping ensure that swift attention is given to any bed bugs that are found in these types of residential facilities so that bed bugs can be controlled immediately.\u00a0 People in the State of New Jersey deserve to enjoy a good night\u2019s rest without the threat of being attacked by bloodsucking bed bugs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
