More on Bed Bugs


Since my post on bed bugs has been the most viewed, I thought I would add some updated information for detecting and mitigating bed bugs in commercial and multi-family properties. Bed Bugs have become the bane of the multifamily business. Some states have begun passing legislation to address the problems of bed bugs in commercial/rental property. I haven’t seen anything from the state of Texas yet, but some argue that the Texas Health and Safety Code SUBCHAPTER B. NUISANCES AND GENERAL SANITATION might apply. Remember to use the Texas Apartment Association Bed Bug Addendum as part of you lease package.

The Commercial Source blog had a post on August 16, 2011 title Bed Bugs Not Ballyhoo.It has a number of links to information about bed bugs, including the EPA, entomological experts and IREM. Check out the links to the specific data. There are a lot of ideas for identifying, treating and preventing bed bugs. It is probably more than you ever wanted to know about bed bugs but you can't bury your head in the sand on this topic.
