Boston University has recently reported bed bug infestations in college dormitories. The students in some of the bed bugs infested units had to move out of their residences for more than three weeks while bed bug treatments were performed.

Bed bug infestations in college campuses is increasing. Used furniture including mattresses are sometimes the cause of a bed bug infestation. Cheap or free used furniture may lead to a horrible bed bug infestation. However, the odious insects also simply cling to clothes and move on to other dorm rooms or apartment units or find ways to travel through the walls.

The Swine Flu seems to be the big concern on college campuses, however college officials and college students can’t stop practicing bed bug prevention techniques and inspections. College students should not use bug spray since it doesn’t kill bed bugs but stimulates them to spread all over the dorm room.

If you have NJ, NYC, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx or Manhattan bed bugs ask a NJ, NYC bed bugs pest control company to get rid of them for you.

We recently received this email from one of our wonderful customers…

“Bedbugs make you feel like you are out of control of the most elemental thing–your own environment. They creep into your room unwanted and attack you in your sleep. Okay, they aren’t lethal. They are not cancer or heart disease or flood or famine, but they are pestilence, and they are…awful. They make me feel like I am losing my mind. Which is where you come in. If it were not for you, I don’t know how we would have come through this or how we would negotiate the future. Your unflappable calm and gentle presence over the phone is as effective an exterminator of the mental misery that accompanies the infestation as the cryonics is for the bedbugs. I can’t find enough words to tell you have grateful I am for your support–may I say, friendship—throughout this process. Perhaps the guys would have eradicated the bedbugs without you, but you saved my life and sanity (such as it is at the moment). I am forever in your debt. The speed with which you marshaled the services I needed, the professionalism of every person I met who is connected with Stern…everything is designed to limit the damage of the situation. Wilson is an angel, and the team of dog-trainers is amazing. Each person is as nice as the person before. If the house is being invaded by bugs, the humans are fantastic. I am ever grateful. And I appreciate your concern for and advice about preventative  maintenance.  Bless you, Jane”
