Why would there be bed bugs in my car?
For many people around the United States, a car is the most frequent method of transportation. It'll get you to school, home, work, the movie theater, restaurants, etc. Constant traveling is the cause of many bed bug infestations. Bed bugs usually don't stay in your car. The car merely serves as a transport between households. Unless you live in your car, or spend a lot of time in it, it is unlikely that you would ever see any signs of bed bugs in your car. However, if you end up getting bed bugs in your home, your car could be the culprit.
How can bed bugs get from my car to my home?
Bed bugs spread by hitchhiking from person to person. They travel by clinging onto clothing or crawling into bags. For example, if a clothing store has bed bugs, some of its merchandise could be carrying bed bugs or their eggs. If that merchandise gets sold, the bugs would be transferred to the buyer. For the millions of people who shop with their cars, there is a chance that the car becomes a gateway for bed bugs to get into your home as well as the homes of any passengers in the car.
How do I know if my car has bed bugs?
It is very difficult to spot bed bugs, especially if they're in your car. Normal signs of bed bugs include:
? Bed bug bites, often in close proximity with one another. ? Blood stains from squashed bed bugs. ? Fecal stains, resembling black pepper. ? Shell casings from when bed bugs molt.
Although blood and fecal stains can be hard to identify within your car, if you spot any of these signs within your home you can trace the cause back to your car. For confirmation, find a canine inspection company near your area. K9 inspections can detect bed bugs with a 95 percent+ accuracy rating.
What can I do to make my car bed bug proof?
With over 20 years in the pest control industry, Jeff Eisenberg, CEO and President of Pest Away Exterminating Inc., believes that the best way to protect your car from bed bugs is to treat it as an extension of your home. Here are some recommendations:
? Vacuum your car on a regular basis. ? Line your trunk with a tarp; giving you extra protection from bed bugs. ? Use Steri-Fab, a highly effective bed bug spray. ? Take advantage of the summers. Bed bugs can't live through temperatures over 120 degrees, a number easily achievable with your windows up out in the sun. ? Fumigate your car.
