Bed bugs are very common in residences. In fact, they are far more common in them than any other place. And the latest to prove that true are the recent bed bug cases in two Saginaw housing complexes.
Maple Manor, located at 535 S Warren Ave was one of those two public housings in the county heavily infested by the small but terrible critters. The pests were discovered in the complex last month.
Based on the statement of one of the residents though, Patricia Byrd, the management was not responding fast enough to solve the problem. After her release from the hospital on October 18 due to bed bug bites on her cheek, chest and arm, she said she reported the problem to them. However, she shared that she was told they would be on her unit after two weeks.
Meanwhile, Rosien Towers at 310 S. Harrison was the second housing identified to be infested by the crawlies. And according to the statement of tenant Sherry Tucker, the bed bugs there have been causing them to lose their furniture pieces.
In response to the complains, Saginaw County Housing Commission executive director, Lesley Foxx Sims, said that they were taking the bed bug problems seriously. Moreover, he said that they were taking aggressive steps to resolve them.

“In her 61 years of life, Patricia Byrd has never seen bedbugs. That is, until they sent her to the hospital last month.
Byrd, a four-year resident of the Maplewood Manor, 535 S. Warren, said she went to St. Mary’s of Michigan on Oct. 18 after she had been bitten on her cheek, chest and arm.
Her apartment at the Saginaw Housing Commission-owned property had become infested with the parasites, which hide in beds and bedding and feed on human blood.”

Indeed, residences are the most vulnerable to the infestation of bed bugs. And basically, that’s because of the high traffic of people in them everyday.
Those critters could sneak their way in everywhere even on buses, cafes and libraries. And you could pick them from any of those places and bring them back unnoticed. With that possibility, even if you’re taking steps to block them off your doorsteps, it is best to have a bed bug spray prepared. That way, you could kill bed bugs promptly and prevent them causing you more problems.
However, most of the pesticides nowadays contain chemicals that could harm your health or pollute the environment. Given that, you should just get Bed Bug Bully instead.
It is effective and that has been proven by hotels, hospitals and pest-control companies. Moreover, it is organic-based so you don’t have to worry about any harmful residue that it may leave when you spray it. In fact, it is already in EPA’s FIFRA 25(b) as pesticide-exempt.
