BEDBUGS - They can live for up to a year without food
If you have ever considered buying your own mobile home for vacationing, here is another good reason.
==================
They can live for up to a year without food
"Unfortunately, in recent years, the United States has seen a resurgence in bedbugs," the letter reads. "That's right — they're back in the sack — and biting."
Bedbugs have hit hotels and homes in every state. The creatures are amazing hitchhikers, experts say, and easily travel in suitcases, boxes or packages. They can live for up to a year without food.
It is the biggest bedbug outbreak since World War II, affecting apartment dwellers, college students, vacationers, and business travelers across the nation.
The bugs are reddish brown, flat, and about the size of a grain of rice.
They live by sucking human blood.

They resist many pesticides and spread quickly in certain mattress-heavy buildings, such as hotels, dormitories and apartment complexes.
Since the EPA restricted the use of several effective pesticides in the 1980s, bedbugs have built resistance to the chemicals that now are on the market, said Potter, the University of Kentucky entomologist.
