A New Tool To Gain the Upper Hand in Controlling Bed Bugs

Oct. 5, 2010 - PRLog -- Now available to assist in the fight against the further spread of bedbugs in Canada are the water soluble Hydrolene HT Bio-Plastic Laundry Bags.

One of the key steps in controlling the spread of bedbugs and reducing the risk of re-infestation is the laundering of linens and clothing that have been contaminated by bed bugs.

Currently there is a gaping hole in the laundering step.  The standard laundry bags used to transport bed bug laden linens and clothing are reopened at the local public laundry or by a laundry service in order to place the infested items into washing machines.

This crucial step is an open loop and allows for bed bugs to either fall off of the linens or out of the bag into the laundry facility.  One unpleasant scenario is that the bed bugs fall onto clean items at the laundry.  What is more important is that this increases the risk that bed bugs will be transferred to new host homes, healthcare or long-term care facilities.

Hydrolene HT Bio-Plastic Laundry Bags are an eco-friendly biodegradable laundry bag that completely dissolves in water.  Meaning that this bag can be placed into a washing machine WITHOUT HAVING TO BE OPENED.  

Hydrolene HT Bio-Plastic Laundry Bags are perfectly suited to closing the laundry loop in the fight against bed bugs.

Hydrolene HT Bio-Plastic Laundry Bags are a patented solution, manufactured in Europe and used in a number of hospitals overseas.

Hydrolene HT Bio-Plastic Laundry Bags are unique in that Hydrolene is a eco-friendly patented technology where,
* Hydrolene is biodegradable
* Hydrolene is COMPLETELY water-soluble
* Hydrolene leaves NO TOXINS in the wastewater of a washing machine
* Hydrolene leaves NO REMNANTS in the wastewater, in the washing machine or on the washed materials

Hydrolene HT Bio-Plastic Laundry Bags are also suitable for use in healthcare and long-term care environments where cross contamination due to soiled or infected linens and clothing can be reduced by eliminating the need for housekeeping, maintenance or laundry staff to directly handle these items more than is necessary.
