Description

Excerpt: "The presence of the bedbug in a house is not necessarily an indication of neglect or carelessness; for, little as the idea may be relished, this insect may gain access in spite of the adoption of all reasonable precautions.

It is very apt to get into the trunks and satchels of travellers, or into baskets of laundry, and may thus be introduced into homes.

Unfortunately, also, it is quite capable of migrating from one house to another and will often continue to come from an adjoining house, sometimes for a period of several months, gaining entrance daily.

Such migration is especially likely to take place if the human inhabitants of an infested house leave it.

With the failure of their usual source of food, the migratory instinct of the bedbugs is developed, and, escaping through windows, they pass along walls, water pipes, or gutters, and thus gain entrance into adjoining houses.

In these or other ways anyone's premises may be temporarily invaded."
