Bed Bugs Arrive In Saint John

They are here early but, no one is excited about it.
Bed bugs can be found all over Saint John and many are wondering what to do about it.
Greg Flynn of Braemar Pest Control Services tells CHSJ News despite what many think, bed bugs are not small.

He says they are an oval-shaped reddish brown bug that bites when you are sleeping and you don't feel it because they inject your skin with an anesthetic.
Flynn adds part of the problem is people in apartment buildings throwing out their beds and others pick them up spreading the bugs to another location.

He says you can cover mattresses and box springs to keep the bugs out and prevent them from getting in.
