Purcellville, VA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 12/10/2015 --Previously bed bugs were associated with uncleanliness. However, Environmental Heat Solutions warns that today they have become a menace all over the world. So, where do they come from? Here is an insight.

Increased Traveling

In the recent years, the United States has experienced a huge increase of bed bugs; this is associated with the increased rate of travel. A parasite cannot be detected while traveling, making it easier for them to hide in between clothes. Once arriving home and unpacking, they easily get themselves comfortable.

Also, besides using the machine to clean the clothes once home, ensure that a higher temperature than normal is used as the regular temperature may not get rid of them.

Infestation

Infestation can come from anyone. From an individual state, as a result of friends' visiting and the like, unfortunately, it may take time before realizing the house has been attacked by them. By the time one discovers that they are in the house already they may have infested totally. In a case of low infestation, it would be more challenging to notice and may take time. While treating the house, most people will mistake carpet beetle with the bed bug; it is, therefore, wise to make sure you're using the appropriate treatment.
