Sleep Tight Don’t Let The Bedbugs Bite
Posted: October 25th, 2011 | Author: Dr. Bill Stillwell | No Comments »I have a friend that I nicknamed "Howard," because he is a
bit of a germphobe. Like Donald Trump, he won’t shake hands,
because too many germs would be exchanged. He is one of
those guys who goes to pricey hotels and demands the linen
be changed while he is in the room. Some people call this kind
of behavior eccentric; I prefer to call it friggin’ nuts.
This morning, I saw another story on the news about bedbugs.
The first bedbug stories started in 1997, in London. Then, they
traveled to the United States,and a couple of times a year, we
are treated to the same old story. The times would usually be
just before the start of a heavy travel season. Gee…I think
Thanksgiving, Christmas, Festivus and the all time favorite,
Kwanzaa, will soon be upon us.
So here’s the question: What happens if you stay in a hotel
with some pesky little varmints? Can you get chicken pox, or
poison ivy? Or any other disease from bedbugs?
Now certainly I hope you are staying in a hotel without bedbugs,
as I’m sure that, like me, you’re not a fan of crawlies. But, since I’m
a native New Yorker, I’m no stranger to bugs, of every size and
shape.
Bedbugs have been accused of spreading every disease known
to man, from cholera to bubonic plague. Whatever bedbugs missed
on the chart, cockroaches and rats picked up. But here’s the bottom
line: Bedbugs have never proven to be anything other than annoying.
The largest concentration of bedbugs ever found was in:
New York City Public Schools.
Now here’s something Mayor Dufusberg could do something about,
instead of fretting over how much salt is on your restaurant table.
Here’s something interesting. If a hotel gets bedbugs, and is properly
sanitized, the chances of the bugs coming back are slim to none.
What bedbugs like best is dense, multi-unit housing complexes, that
have tens of thousands of nooks and crannies. They don’t seem to like
movie theatres, hospitals, or even restaurants. But they thrive in old,
poorly maintained apartment projects.
If you should happen to get bedbugs, spray your house once, or twice.
Bedbugs, unlike relatives, can take a hint. There is no need to spray
any more than that, no matter what the pest control specialist says. If
you spray more than that, you have more to fear from the chemicals than
the bugs.
Summing up…bedbugs are annoying…but they are not disease carriers.
And other than on the television news, they really aren’t the problem some
so called journalists are making them.
Now, we can move on to what’s really important…like you losing some
flubber. If you start now, you can get ahead of the curve. Why wait and
have extra elbbeze to lose in January?
