Sleep With One Eye Open Bed Bugs Are Out For Blood Pest Control Services And Cost

SEATTLE - June 27, 2016 - PRLog -- Bed bugs are one of the most difficult pest problems to eradicate quickly. By far, the best solution for bed bugs is to hire a pest control company with experience successfully controlling bed bugs. Unfortunately, this can be expensive and beyond the means of many people. The  attempt do-it-yourself bed bug control, there are some things that can done. With diligence and patience and some hard work , a fighting chance of getting rid of bed bugs in the home or commercial business building is possible.
Living in an apartment or condominium, it's best to alert the property manager. A coordinated bed bug control effort using a pest control company is generally needed in such situations. Bed bugs readily move from apartment to apartment, with many people unaware that there is a problem. If one apartment is infested, adjoining units should be assumed to be infested unless shown otherwise through inspection or monitoring. Simply asking tenants whether bed bugs are present is not enough. In one recent study only half of residents in a large apartment with bed bugs knew (or admitted)to having a bed bug problem.
Pesticides alone are not the answer to bed bugs. Most of the commonly used pesticides today, including professional products and consumer products advertised for control of bed bugs, are at best moderately effective at controlling these pests. Pesticides must be used with care for safety and with attention to proper application to work well. Aerosol "bug bombs" or "fumigators" are also mostly ineffective in eliminating bed bugs. Aerosol insecticides mainly kill insects that are exposed, and out of their hiding places, not those hidden behind baseboards, in cracks and crevices of the bed, under carpet edging and in walls.

Determine which rooms are infested. Bedrooms are the principal locations for bed bugs; however, any room where people sleep in the home may provide harborage for bed bugs. Living rooms with sofas and sofa beds are the next most common sites for bed bugs. Typically an infestation starts in one room and spreads slowly to other places where people sleep.

It's generally unnecessary to throw away beds or bedding. It is expensive to replace bedding, and chances are that any new mattresses, box springs or beds brought into the home will quickly become re-infested. The money to replace a bed or mattress might better be spent on hiring a professional.

Select and use insecticides safely. There are no magic sprays that kill bed bugs very well (https://plus.google.com/+AMPMExterminatorsKirkland/posts). Most commercial insecticides will kill bed bugs if applied carefully and directly to the insects and their hiding places. An exception is "Bug bombs", or aerosol foggers. Foggers are mostly ineffective in controlling bed bugs. Because bed bugs hide in crevices and voids where aerosols do not penetrate, and avoid contact with these insecticides. Their use is not recommended. Some of the products you may find helpful include:
Diatomaceous earth (DE) dust for insect control . This is an abrasive dust that dessicates, or dries out, bed bugs when they come in contact with it. Some pest control companies now use Diatomaceous earth dust extensively in bed bug control (http://www.yellowpages.com/seattle-wa/mip/ampm-exterminators-12443332).
Pyrethroid sprays are among the stronger and longer-lasting pesticides, but most bed bugs are resistant to these sprays to some degree. Special care should be taken when using pyrethroid sprays, especially when children are present. Only use pyrethroids in places indicated on the label. Do not spray electrical outlets with any type of liquid spray. Spraying should be done when children are not present, and all label directions followed carefully.

Pesticides should always be used with caution, and especially when used indoors. Never use a pesticide for bed bugs that does not bear clear directions stating that it can be used indoors. Never spray without protection, children or pets with a pesticide. And follow the label safety directions carefully. Pesticide labels contain directions for use that are not merely suggestions. Failure to follow directions exactly is illegal and can result in poor control and possible harm the family.
