Bugs In My Bed

December 4, 2009

Hearts Consulting Group announces the unvailing of it’s first website: www.bugsinmybed.com. This website is really different from other pest control websites in two ways.

1) While there are one or two great bed bug websites, such as Bed Bug Central, the goal of this website is to take a very broad view of the bed bug epidemic, seeing it rather within the context of people who have broad complaints about bugs that get in their beds. In the past, when people woke up with bites, the common answer was that it was spiders. Well, then the bed bug epidemic came and it seemed like anyone who had bites thought it was bed bugs. Simultaneously, another group of people are shouting about an epidemic of mite bites. They are talking about it on birdmites.org and shouting out loud about unknown parasites at Morgellon’s websites.

2) Most bed bug websites are written from the perspective of a pest control company. This website was written with a more neutral perspective, one that would incorporate the perspectives and needs of realtors, homeowners, tenants, lawyers, school adminstrators, medical professionals, group living administrators and many others. We hope we an live up to the expectations we have set for ourselves.

3) We will review this subject on a worldwide basis.

4) We will attempt to acquire field data through our report map for these epidemics. Going further than other reportsing websites, such as the Bed Bug Registry, we also seek to create a report and feedback process to help resolve issues.

You should be aware of these little, but very nasty creatures. When they are on the move, it “mite” be for you, at night. Honestly, this is not a scare tactic, just fact. It’s not all about bed bugs. Just go ask the folks who frequent birdmites.org. Customers used to call us with complaints of spider bites that we couldn’t solve. Then came the bed bug epidemic and we started looking at other possibilities. Now we know that it is often mites, bird mites, rat mites or some other form of mite. You can learn more at Hearts Pest Management. Check out pages for rats and mice, birds, as well as mites and parasites to get the full picture. There is also learn a lot about this subject from Hearts Consulting Group, which has completed first phase development of a website focusing on Bugs In My Bed.
