Understanding Bedbugs - Lunchbox Class


Understanding Bedbugs - Lunchbox Class

Here is a short class that landlords might be interested in with the new bedbug legislation that is everywhere these days.  This is a very inexpensive ($30) and an informative 2 hour class, which also includes lunch. 
  • Bed bugs are small, oval non-flying insects that feed by sucking blood from humans or animals.
  • Bed bugs can live in any area of the home and can reside in tiny cracks in furniture as well as on textiles and upholstered furniture. They tend to be most common in areas where people sleep and generally concentrate in beds, including mattresses, box springs, and bed frames.
  • Getting rid of bed bugs is not an easy process, and most cases of bed bug infestation will require treatment by a pest-control expert.
Learn about the basics of preventing an infestation and, if present, what must be done to eliminate them.

This class is presented by the Construction Institute of New Hampshire.

Lead Paint Safety for Landlords
Most people think lead paint is a thing of the past. Lead paint was used extensively, prior to 1978 when it was finally outlawed. The problem is that all that lead paint, which held up for so many decades has now begun to crack, peel, chip and flake, exposing extremely high levels of lead in many cases making lead paint, arguably, a bigger problem than ever.
Lead paint dust is especially dangerous because it cannot be seen or detected in most cases, leaving small children particularly vulnerable since they tend to spend a great deal of time on or near the floors and windowsills. Landlords, plumbers, renovators, builders & remodelers of all kinds come in contact with this dangerous and toxic substance often on a regular basis during their normal work day any time paint is disturbed in a pre-1978 building or home.
This course will teach you why lead paint is so dangerous and how to deal with it safely on the job, keeping both you and your tenants healthy and safe from its toxicity.
Save yourself the complaints, headaches and possible lawsuits from tenants claiming they or their children became sick living in your property. Learn how to deal with lead paint safely and easily now!
