Never stay at hotels or motels. And if you do, inspect very carefully and don’t leave things out of your zipped up suitcases. What can I tell ya?
Also, never let anyone stay in your home after being in a hotel. Makes me itchy as I speak!
If you fumigate to kill the bugs, what do you think that does to you? If it kills the bugs, it will kill you too.!
My guess is that there is a plant remedy to this problem. Marigold leaves or something. Garlic stems? Gotta be something.
If it is summertime just park your car in the sun for several days. The bugs can’t survive 140+ temperatures for extended periods of time. My daughter got head lice at school and I cleaned her room and bagged all her clothes, teddy bears, linen, and anything else that lice could hide in and put them into a truck parked in a pasture with no shade for two weeks during the Summer. Very little can survive a slow cooking oven.
“fumigation will kill you too” The gas used in the process will indeed kill you if you enter the area being fumigated while the chemical remains concentrated. I don’t know what the gas is, but the fumigation team leader said that the gas left no residue and clothes would be okay to wear, etc.
The tarp was removed the next day, the house was aired out, and was occupied the following day.
According to the article:
The hotel’s general manager, Carlos Mendoza, denied the building had a bug infestation, telling the newspaper the hotel and an outside pest control company both swept the room after the allegations were made and there were no bugs to be found.
No they won’t it smells up like crazy - but the next day its a good smell (cedar)
Only do it to your home if you happen to bring them home.
Don’t think that only bad hotels have them. I refuse to travel to NJ anymore because the two 5 star places I stayed at had them
