Orkin says it treats for bed bugs in all 50 states, and their presence is not necessarily a sign of uncleanliness. In fact, the company says, bed bugs can travel in luggage or other personal belongings - not just beds - to make their way into your home.

They recommend checking your home regularly for bed bugs, as well as checking any accommodations when you travel.
