Colleges are infamous for being breeding grounds for bed bugs. Preventing bed bugs in dorm rooms requires vigilance and knowledge of how you might get an infestation to begin with.
College students can help prevent bed bugs in a dorm by doing the following.
There’s no wondering why college dorm rooms are prone to bed bug infestations. Because universities house individuals from all over the world that travel all the time, bed bug problems are prone to start at any time of the year. When it comes to bed bugs in dorms, it’s important to know where to look. Beds, couches, chairs, baseboards, dressers, and clothing are all susceptible to getting bed bugs. Especially because dorm room furniture is inherently second-hand, it’s important to stay vigilant about looking for signs of these pests.

This is one of the most common ways bed bug infestations start in homes, often when college students arrive home for the holidays or summer vacation. To prevent this, make sure your college student takes precautions in packing their suitcase, especially if it was used for other travel plans. Make sure your student also takes care when unpacking their suitcase. Wash all clothing (even clean clothes) in a hot wash, steam-clean the suitcase, and store it up above ground.
The last thing any college student has time to deal with is a bed bug infestation—making it important to learn how to prevent them in the first place.Learning the signs and communicating any suspicions of an infestation is extremely important. Bed bugs can easily spread from one dorm room to another, making it important to deal with the problem as soon as possible. By keeping a tidy room, covering your mattress, and taking care while traveling, you can lessen the risk of bed bugs in college dorms.
