We thought they were a thing of the past, but bed bugs are back-and with a vengeance. Rates of bed bug infestations have skyrocketed in the last few decades. And because the little bloodsuckers have been off the radar for so long, most people have forgotten how to deal with the pests.
Kevin and Brent Youngblood, founders of San Francisco's bed bug detection service Scent Tek, have plenty of experience with bed bugs. In How to Prevent the Attack of Bed Bugs!, these bug-busting brothers reveal how to keep your house bed bug free.
Starting with a discussion on bed bugs and their nasty habits, the Youngbloods offer practical, effective tips for protecting your home, including a helpful list of products designed to guard against infestations. You'll also learn how to avoid bed bugs while traveling and how to prevent unwanted bed bugs from hitching a ride back to your home.
A comprehensive battle plan for preventing and controlling bed bugs, the Youngbloods' advice will help you keep these icky invaders away from you and your loved ones. Because when you sleep tight, you really don't want the bed bugs to bite.
