ANT CONTROL TIP OF THE DAY: Killing single ants inside the home should be avoided, as live ants are attracted to the smell of their dead companions, and will swarm to the place to be able to carry away the carcasses! |

Bed Bugs Discovered With MRSA |
|
The one bright side of having bed bugs — if you wanted to be really optimistic about it — has always been that at least the tormenting critters didn't transmit disease. But now researchers in Vancouver report that they've found bed bugs with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, or MRSA.
The scientists studied five bed bugs, taken from three patients treated at St. Paul's Hospital. All three patients were residents of Vancouver's poor Downtown Eastside, where both bed bugs and MRSA have been on the rise in recent years. The researchers wanted to see if there was a connection.
So they crushed and analyzed the bugs and found three samples with MRSA, the superbug that is resistant to most commonly used antibiotics. The two other samples had vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium, or VRE, a less dangerous antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
That's pretty much all they know at this point. It's not clear, for example, whether the drug-resistant germs were transmitted from people to bed bugs, or the other way around. The strain of MRSA the scientists found was consistent with community-associated MRSA found in other Downtown Eastside residents.

Bed Bugs Are Spreading
Across the country, the bed bug problem continues to increase. The situation in New York City is one example of what is happening in some areas.
A new Daily News-Marist poll revealed that one person in 10in New York City has had bed bugs in their homes—twice as many as last year. Put another way, the poll suggests that 800,000 people in the city have had these bloodsuckers crawling around in their sheets!
It's not just homes that are infested; people are reporting bed bugs in their workplace too. They've even been discovered recently in places like upscale clothing stores, health clubs, judge's chambers, and movie theaters. The number of calls to the city's hotline shot up 33% last year. The city recently provided $500,000 in anti-bed bug funds and is considering naming a special bed bug "czar" to combat this modern-day plague.
Part of the reason for the rapid spread of bed bugs in New York, and everywhere, is that these bugs can easily "hitchhike" on people's clothes, in gym bags, pocketbooks, etc., without a person knowing they are there. Often the first indications of an infestation are welts or bite marks, but about 20% of us don't show any reaction to bed bug bites.
Bed bug control is time-consuming and requires a thorough knowledge of these pests, as well as the proper materials to control them. Some people have tried to control bed bugs themselves, but this never works. Don't wait while the bugs spread to other rooms and your friends—call us to do it right. |
