The Waldorf Astoria is in bed bug hell. A rash of recent accusations from former guests of the hotel who say they were bitten while staying there will no doubt hurt business. A Michigan family stepped forward on Thursday to share their story with the public—and to sue the landmark hotel.
According to their lawyer, Alan Schnurman, who is filing a lawsuit in Supreme Court of New York County on Thursday, the family brought bed bugs back to Plymouth, Mich. with them and were forced to evacuate their home for six weeks while it was treated for an infestation. With all the media attention it is logical to look for small companies with green solutions. Below is one I recently spoke to about their product line.
Transfer Technology International, along with their subsidiary Organic Products International, has introduced Avenger Organics Bed Bug Killer to the US Markets. Most Bed Bug treatment products use Permethrins and Pyrethrins, which are serious carcinogens and pesticides. The other preferred method is using heat treatments to reach temperatures over 130 degrees Fahrenheit to kill them off which is difficult to perform at certain infested locations such as hotels, motels etc.
Avenger Organic Bed Bug Killer is a 100% Natural, eco-friendly non-pesticide spray or powder that is safe to use around children and pets with the ability to kill bed bug adults, larva, and eggs on contact and leaves an extremely pleasant aroma after usage.
Chris Trina, Chairman/CEO of Transfer Technology International states, "We are proud to be able to offer a GREEN solution to the bed bug problem. With pesticide resistance being partially blamed for the recent surge in bed bug reports, our products offer an effective alternative while protecting our environment."
The product is currently available for purchase from the Company's website: http://opitampa.com and is available in some retail stores now.
Last month, a Florida woman says she was bitten by the critters at the posh hotel while on a business trip; and last week a Long Island mother, Susanne Igneri, filed a complaint against the hotel alleging that she brought bed bugs home with her after a stay at the Waldorf. Maybe the Waldorf should start looking for some solutions instead of litigating the problem.
