Yet again, bed bugs penetrated and pestered another university. This time, they got Princeton University in New Jersey.
Particularly, those tiny vampire-like critters infested a suite in the campus’ Holder Hall in Rockefeller College. The room is occupied by four students. And as it was reported, all of them were evacuated following the discovery of the pests’ presence.
But as if one relocation wasn’t an inconvenience yet, the crawlies caused the residents to transfer from their suite twice. The first evacuation took place promptly after an infestation was reported by two of the occupants on September 13. The second one happened on September 27 following another discovery of the pests by the two same residents.
To give way to the bed bug treatment, the four students were transferred after the first bed bug incident to the single rooms in 1915 Hall, Butler College. Meanwhile, their clothes, books and laptops were exposed to high temperature for four hours to kill the crawlies. Their remaining belonging was then shipped for a fumigation set for seven days.
On September 23, the four occupants were allowed to go back to the infested suite. However, they were again asked to move to the single rooms in Butler College after the second infestation last Friday. University spokesperson Martin Mbugua said that following it, the room will go through the same treatment and the residents’ things will also be re-heated.

In the first incident, two roommates contacted the Rockefeller College Office on Sept. 13 after they woke up with bites and “saw clusters of bed bugs” under the mattress in their bedroom, said the student, who was granted anonymity to freely discuss the situation.”

The bed bug incident in Rockefeller College simply shows how stubborn bed bugs could be. Once their presence turns to a full-blown infestation, a single bed bug treatment may not be enough to completely get rid of them. That’s is why as early as possible, you must kill bed bugs.
But of course, before that, you must first detect them. That means you must look for physical signs of their presence. And those bed bug signs include blood spots on the bed, dark specks on cracks, gaps and crevices, musty-sweet smell and discarded shells.
Let’s say that, based on those signs, you confirmed that there are indeed bed bugs in your house. What should you then? Well, what else but to eliminate them promptly. However, you couldn’t do that without a bed bug spray in your hand. And basically, that could give them a chance to spread even further.
Given that, you must have a Bed Bug Bully prepared. With it ready, a help to kill bed bugs immediately is always within your reach.
