While we are amidst holiday travel season, it’s important for business owners to keep bed bug control top of mind. As many know, the more people in one place, the easier it is for bed bugs to hitchhike to their next victim. One common misconception is that hotels and apartment buildings are the only high-risk environments for bed bugs. While it’s true these are susceptible to infestations, there are a variety of other commercial environments that are highly vulnerable too, such as:

  • Hospitals""
  • Salons/Spas
  • Office buildings
  • Public transportation
  • Schools
  • Child care centers
  • Assisted living facilities

This list is not comprehensive – many types of places can develop a bed bug problem so long as the bed bug carrier is in close proximity to other individuals and personal items. Unfortunately, it is very difficult to prevent bed bugs in the first place. However, you can stay prepared by frequently checking vulnerable areas and have a treatment plan if problems arise.
