Why Are Bed Bugs Drawn To Commercial Spaces In Hawaii?
A 2018 survey conducted by the National Pest Management Association noted bed bugs were in the following:
- 89% in apartments/condominiums
- 68% in hotels/motels
- 59% of nursing homes
- 47% of schools and daycare centers
- 46% in office buildings
- 36% in hospitals
arrive in commercial spaces due to the number of people frequenting those locations. Bed bugs hitch rides on pant legs, suitcases, shoes, bedsheets, and other items. Bed bugs feed on warm-blooded animals and humans, and due to the high volume of people in commercial spaces, these pests always have a source of food.
Bites from bed bugs are painless and not immediately noticed. Guests in hotels, resorts, or hospitals may not notice the bites until a few days after leaving. Since they have been gone a few days, they may not associate the bites with the commercial property, thus failing to report the issue. While the issue remains unreported, the bed bugs continue their rapid multiplication unabated. If there is any good news regarding bed bugs, it’s that they do not transmit diseases, nor do the bites require medical attention. Bed bug bites are itchy and leave red welts at the bite site, often in a line or grouping.
