A bit of information that you might like to know about. We have friends here in our community and one of their sons is an entomologist (insect expert), and has been telling them that there is an epidemic of bed bugs now occurring in America. Recently I have heard on the news that several stores in NYC have had to close their doors due to bed bug infestations, as well as a complete mall in New Jersey.
He says that since much of our clothing, sheets,towels, etc. now come from factories outside of America, (sad but true)
Even the most expensive stores sell foreign clothing from China, Indonesia,Taiwan etc. The bed bugs are coming in on the clothing as these countries do not consider them a problem. He recommends that when you buy new clothing, underwear, socks, sheets, towels, etc. that you immediately put them in your clothes dryer for at least 20 minutes. The heat will kill them and their eggs.
DO NOT PURCHASE CLOTHES AND HANG THEM IN THE CLOSET FIRST. It does not matter what the price range is of the clothing, or if the outfit comes from the most expensive store known in the U.S. They still get shipments from these countries and the bugs can come in a box of scarves or anything else for that matter. That is the reason why so many clothing stores have had to shut down in NYC and other places. All you need is to bring one item into the house that has bugs or eggs on it and you will go to hell and back trying to get rid of them. He travels all over the country as an adviser in prevention and helps many stores after they had the problem.
