They seem to be popping up more and more, e.g. just last week in the Empire State Building of all places. What with all the media attention, is it unrealistic to be concerned that you might pick up an unwanted "hitchhiker" during a business trip? Or even, dare I say, a ski trip, as these pests can survive up to a year waiting for their next blood meal, while living indoors, making them impervious to winter, unlike mosquitoes. From what I've heard, they're a b*tch to get rid of too. Does anyone take any prior precautions against them, like checking the bedsheets when you check in?
