Testing for Bed Bugs Is Simple & Affordable
Enclosed you will find easy-to-follow instructions on how to test for bed bugs. EMSL Analytical, a leading nationwide testing laboratory, uses DNA testing that generates rapid, inexpensive, and accurate results.
Why Test for Bed Bugs?
Bed bugs feed exclusively on the blood of warm-blooded animals – including humans – typically while they sleep. They have been found everywhere, from hotels and offices to apartment buildings and individual homes.
Adding to the unpleasantness of bed bugs, scientists have recently discovered Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) on them. MRSA is a dangerous microbial pathogen that is difficult to treat.
Adult bed bugs only grow to a size of 4 to 5 millimeters. Due to their size, they have traditionally been difficult to identify, but EMSL Analytical, Inc.’s Bed Bug Test Kit changes that.
