(Newswire.net — February 26, 2015) Houston, TEXAS — Texas Bugs-R-Us is now targeting its services to property managers of adult group homes across Houston. There have been reports of increasing bed bug infestations in boarding homes throughout the city and surrounding communities. As a result, property managers have become more nervous about their business, customers, and reputation. Heat treating equipment and other pest control equipment and services are available from the company to help eradicate these problematic insects and prevent their return.
Group homes are a safe haven for seniors and individuals with mental and physical handicaps. Bed bugs are an increasing worry for them. In fact, a local news agency reported in January 2015 that a Knotty Oaks Trail group home was infested. It was successfully treated by a pest control service and the residents returned thereafter. The incident, however, proves that no location large or small, urban or secluded is immune.
Texas Bugs-R-Us has a long track record of defeating bed bug infestations. It also has a strong focus on prevention. Some methods exterminators use include sealing entry points. This makes it more difficult for bed bugs to get in and proliferate. By doing so, the unsightly presence, bites, and potential disease causing pathogens of these insects can be avoided. Prevention is not always easy. In some cases, management firms have taken over properties and found them riddled with bed bugs. The result can harm property management reputation and business.
Calvin Thigpen, owner of Texas Bugs-R-Us, said, “We are armed and ready to take on the group home bed bug problem. These facilities are intended as safe havens. The goal is to protect the people inside and help property managers solve the problem and preserve their reputation. This is especially important in an age when facilities are more scrutinized than ever by authorities. Our professional exterminators are trained to successfully clean out any home or business and keep it that way.”
In 2013, reports surfaced that authorities might start regulating group homes in Houston TX. A deadly fire and a shooting involving a police officer sparked this news; many had also reported seeing bed bugs in group homes, which also makes the case for regulation. Texas Bugs-R-Us can help in this respect – it can eradicate the pests, ensure they don’t come back, and preserve the integrity of the home. Using a portable, direct-fired propane heater, it does not leave behind any toxic residue or residual damage. The bugs are effectively removed from beds, carpeting, furniture, and cracks and crevices.
The company’s services have been proven to restore normalcy following infestations by bed bugs. Free quotes are available online.
