Bed Bug Info

Anyone know where to get information on these pests in Rupert?
Have a friend that thinks she has an infestation starting, states she has one in a bottle and needs to have someone verify what it is.

Where could she go to get her nightmares confirmed / debunked?

I called the Health Unit for her but they stated that the Environmental Officer in Terrace would be able to assist her…

KK, Terrace? How can an officer in terrace confirm what it is over a phone? Meh

she should just google image it. That will confirm it easily enough. There have been some in Rupert, though not the rampant infestation some people made it out to be!

The house i rented from Tinker Realty is infested with bed bugs.

according to Judy Park of Tinker Realty, “it could happen to anyone, at any time.”

Call the pest control guy in town? Nobody knows bedbugs like he does

I was wondering what took this subject so long to end up here…
Anyone at any time can get them! Rupert has many places that have them as does every city in North America…
Expensive to get rid of. Oh i see it was posted back in 2010… i never knew much about them back than, never had them myself but assisted a few people that did have them in the past couple of years.
With bed bugs it’s not a question of if it’s when …

“With bed bugs it’s not a question of if it’s when …”

that is a ridiculous statement … most people have never had bed bugs .

Work in the field I do and just ask Pat from Orkin… most people have never had them is the key words there…
