Traveling This Summer? Make Sure to Guard Against Bed Bugs, Scabies, and Other Crawlies!
Posted on
As summer approaches and travel plans develop, many of us look forward to the adventure and relaxation that come with vacationing. Staying in hotels and motels is exciting but can quickly turn into a nightmare if you encounter bed bugs, scabies, or other crawling skin pests. These nuisances can cause itching, discomfort, and significant stress, potentially ruining your trip. Fortunately, Natural Ginesis has solutions to help you stay protected and enjoy your travels worry-free.
Possible Pests You May Encounter While Traveling
- Bed Bugs: Bed bugs are tiny, reddish-brown insects that feed on human blood. They are notorious for infesting hotels, motels, and other accommodations. Bed bugs are excellent hitchhikers and can easily travel with you, infesting your home once you return from your trip. Symptoms of bed bugs include small, itchy bites on your skin, usually arranged in a line or cluster. You may also notice tiny bloodstains on your sheets or mattress. While bed bugs are not known to transmit diseases, their bites can cause severe itching and allergic reactions in some individuals. The psychological toll of dealing with an infestation can be significant.
- Scabies: These are a microscopic mite known as Sarcoptes scabiei. They burrow into the skin to lay eggs, causing severe itching, especially at night, and a pimple-like rash. They usually affect areas like the wrists, elbows, armpits, and waistline. The itching and discomfort can be severe, often requiring medical treatment to alleviate symptoms. Scabies can spread quickly through close physical contact.
- Other Biting Mites: Bird mites or rat mites can also be encountered while traveling. These mites can cause itching, redness, and irritation through tiny bites. You might not see the mites themselves, but their bites are usually noticeable. Mite bites can lead to secondary infections if scratched excessively. The discomfort can significantly impact your travel experience.
How to Protect Against Bed Bugs While Traveling
Preventing bed bugs and other pests from ruining your vacation involves a combination of vigilance and using effective products designed to deter these unwanted guests. There are several things you can do before you travel to help get ahead of a pest problem:
- Research Accommodations: Read reviews of hotels and motels, paying attention to any mentions of bed bugs or other pest issues. Reputable establishments are less likely to have pest problems.
- Pack Smart: Use protective covers for your luggage. Sealed plastic bags can help keep bed bugs and other pests from hitching a ride on your belongings.
Once you arrive at your destination, there are additional measures you can take to find signs of a problem and prevent one from developing:
- Inspect Your Room: Upon arrival, inspect the mattress, headboard, and furniture for signs of bed bugs. Look for tiny bloodstains, dark spots (fecal matter), or live insects.
- Keep Luggage Off the Bed: Place your luggage on a luggage rack or a hard surface like a bathroom counter. Avoid putting your belongings on the bed or the floor.
- Use Natural Ginesis Products: Spray Kleen Green™ on bedding, furniture, and luggage. Kleen Green is an enzyme-based cleaner that disrupts the life cycle of bed bugs, mites, and other crawling skin parasites, providing a safe, non-toxic method of protection.
Vigilance against pests doesn’t end there! Even when you arrive home after the trip is over, you must still take steps to ensure no pests came home with you.
- Inspect and Clean Luggage: Before bringing your luggage inside your home, inspect it thoroughly. Vacuum your luggage and wash all your clothes in hot water.
- Treat With Kleen Green™: Spray Kleen Green on your luggage and any items you suspect might have come into contact with bed bugs or mites. This will help eliminate any pests that may have hitched a ride back with you.
