Bed Bug Registry

^Very useful site in terms of where not to stay if on vacation or potentially moving into a new place. It's kind of scary if you ask me. I couldn't believe some of the hotels that had (multiple ) reports. Pass this website around.

Although I haven't had any incidents w/ bed bugs. I do however travel a lot. So I have my mattress & box mattress covered with a bedbug protector. One key thing while traveling is to NEVER place your luggage on ANY bed. Also, unpack things only when needed. Keep everything else inside your bags. When you return home don't unpack right away. (Bring them to a laundry mat, unpack and wash & dry your clothes). This is very critical!

Sorry but cleanliness has nothing to do with this matter. It's simply awareness. Little things like not having people (including yourself) sit on your bed with clothing worn from outside. I heard that people are bringing them home from MOVIE THEATERS! It's really getting out of hand.

Thank you for that link, Rose and I travel often so I am sure it will come in handy.

You got it all backwards....you want to invent something and sell ONE to Ortho or Bayer etc for 200 mil..skip over manufacturing, licensing, liability....let someone else deal with that while you enjoy another Mai Tai on your private (bed bug free) island.

I do want that but I know better. the big companies will look at it, tell you they don't need it, and then just copy it.
