Everyone's quite rightly on alert for bed bugs. When I go into a hotel room, the first thing I do is check the mattress for any tell-tale signs. When I get home, the laundry is done immediately and the luggage is left in the garage. Minor hockey families staying in hotels during tournaments might want to do likewise because once these little critters are in your home, they are tough to get rid of. It's a lice-like experience.
Now a hockey team has cancelled its teddy bear toss fundraiser due to a fear of spreading bed bugs, according to the National Post.
Just wait until university kids start returning home next spring. That's when Ontario's bed bug concerns could hit a new level.
