Bed Bug Prevention Training

Bed bug prevention training has become more important due to the increasingly transient nature of people through increased worldwide travel. This has led the hotel and hospitality industry to experience increased complaints from paying guests as a result of bed bug infestations. Even the cleanest of hotels and establishments can find they experience problems with bed bugs (Cimex Lectularis).

AMES (Altek Midlands Environmental Services) provide bed bug training in the UK to help hotel staff, residential care homes, bed and breakfasts, private clinics and hospitals, boarding schools and commercial and private landlords from being affected by bed bug problems.

AMES are able to present frontline hotel or accommodation staff with a comprehensive, practical and easy to understand training course on the awareness and effective prevention and control of bed bugs. This knowledge can be imperative in the early detection of problems which can help stop the rapid spread and more deep-rooted problems from emerging. This early detection can help retain a high room occupancy rate.

The Course Includes:

  • Introduction
  • What are Bed Bugs
  • Bed Bug and its Biology
  • The importance of Controlling Bed Bugs
  • Where to find them
  • Identifications (6 signs)
  • The problems bed bugs cause
  • THe treatment and consequences
  • Bed Bug Quiz - Check Learning

The cost of running the course is £400. We recommend two courses per year to accommodate staff turnover.
