Do you need protection against bedbugs during your travels?
Are you a business-traveller or a festival fan?
Are you planning a pilgrimage or world tour?

Do you want to be sure when abroad that you are not sharing your bed with insects?

The anti bed bugs sheet an innovative product developed by 7flies, is the ideal solution in all destinations infested by bedbugs.

How does it work?

For bedbugs, touching one of our sheets feels like touching a burning hot-plate. They will not come into unnecessary contact with it. Simply spread it on the mattress before going to bed. The bedbugs will stay away and you can sleep in peace.

Here is a selection of additional tips on dealing with bedbugs from our entomology expert Eva Scholl:

• Prevention: Avoid bedbug-infested hotels (check travellers’ hotel assessments on the Internet); do not pack more than you need.
• How to detect an infestation: By the smell (sickly-sweet); be on the look-out for signs of infestation on the mattress and headboard; pull the bed away from the wall. We also recommend being careful about your choice of destination and where you stay. More and more travellers are reporting cases of bedbug-infested hotels in their travel reports on the Internet.
• Keep bugs away from your luggage: Place your suitcase with you on the sheet or spray the outside of your case with insect repellent (which is toxic: avoid inhaling it). Beware of wardrobes! While most bedbugs tend to remain no further than 1.50 metres away from their food source, they may travel longer distances if they are disturbed, for example, by eradication efforts. Be sure to have a plastic bag for items you suspect may be contaminated.
• Avoid bringing bedbugs home with you: Undress in the bath or shower; place any suspect items in plastic bags and deep freeze for at least 24 hours, or tumble-dry for 30 minutes or wash at 60°C.
• If you are bitten: peoples’ reactions vary widely. If there is any itching at all, it is likely to be severe and long-lasting. There have been no reported cases of diseases being transmitted by bedbugs. Permanent psychological effects are nonetheless possible. We regularly see panicky attempts by individuals to combat bedbugs on their own and the wrong choice of methods giving rise to astronomical yet perfectly avoidable costs.
