PEST CONTROL TORONTO CAN ASSIST IN PROTECTING YOUR HEALTH

 September has already begun and here is why contacting Professional Pest Control Toronto Service should be your first task in your to-do list this month. September is a hectic month, particularly if you have school-aged children or work as a teacher. Summer vacation has just ended, and the hectic race of preparing for school and surviving the first few weeks begins as everyone settles into new habits, activities, and schedules. It’s a lot to manage and comprehend, and it may exhaust even the most organized individual.

Bed bugs are probably not on your radar at this time of year, but they should be since bed bugs adore books. They hide between book pages and deposit their eggs in the spines of hardcover books.

And now that instructors and students are back in school, they will be engaging with books in the classroom, school library, and local community library on a regular basis. These books will be transported to and from school and home in backpacks, increasing the risk of a bed bug infestation in your house and school.

Bed bug infestations at schools and libraries are not new, and they, like bed bug infestations at home and across the globe, are on the rise because these pests move freely, reproduce quickly, and are exceedingly difficult to eradicate.

The good news is that being knowledgeable and proactive can help you safeguard your home and school against bed bugs.

Here are some suggestions for parents to help ensure that their children do not carry bed bugs home from school:

• Inspect backpacks on a regular basis. In an ideal world, this would be done everyday, as soon as the children get home, but it is neither practical nor practicable for most families. Check in every week, every two weeks, or once a month.

• When checking the bag, keep the following in mind:

1. Completely empty the backpack of all of its contents. Use a plastic container for examination to assist trap and retain any bedbugs that have made their way into your house and fall out during the inspection.
2. Inspect the bag completely, paying special attention to seams, folds, and compartments.
3. Examine the contents carefully, including books, binders, loose papers, pencil cases, lunch bags, and loose clothes. • If you suspect bed bugs, toss the empty backpacks and loose clothing in a dryer on the highest setting. You may be able to throw the lunch bag and pencil case in the drier as well, depending on the fabric.

• Wash your children’s backpacks, pencil cases, lunch bags, extra clothes, and any outerwear they carry to and from school on a regular basis.

Here are some strategies for educators to help avoid bed bug infestations in the classroom or library:

• Make the classroom and library less cluttered.

• Avoid using carpets, but if you must, use them sparingly.

• Do not hang curtains on windows.

• Inspect, clean, and vacuum classrooms and libraries on a regular basis.

• Inspect borrowed books when they return to school. Place them in a plastic liner for examination to help trap and retain potential bedbugs.

• Educate and educate students and parents to identify the indications of bed bugs. Here’s some useful bed bug information.

• Because bed bugs may attach themselves to a person via their clothes, both parents and educators should keep recovered ‘lost and found’ clothing items in a sealed container before placing them in a child’s backpack to be sent home. When you get home, throw them in the dryer on the highest setting, then wash and dry them before reusing them.
