Necessary Steps For Getting Rid Of Bed Bugs

Since the early days of ancient Greece, the medieval times of Europe and the modern age of today Getting Rid Of Bed Bugs has been a problem for human society. In the 1940's and 1950's the United States waged an all out war against insects by attacking them with the frequent use of the lethal pesticides DDT. Though the pesticide was effective in practically eliminating these blood sucking critters, it was banned in later decades because it proved damaging to the natural environment and was endangering the survival of various animal species.

With the banning of DDT there was no effective treatment available for dealing with the tiny critters and as time passed by we've seen a resurgence in bed bug population numbers as well as an expansion of the territories they now infest. The situation is so bad that you can find them not only in your home but in many business as well. This growing infestation is fast becoming a serious problem in many urban areas with New York City being a prime example, as the bed bug capital in America.

The perfect habitat for bed bugs are areas in which the climate is warm and dry. Since man is capable of providing just those sorts of conditions within the structures we build this tends to explain why they are now so broad range.

A Bed Bugs Only Meal

Bed Bugs get their nourishment by feeding on the blood of you and your pets. They tend to feed when you are fast asleep still and their bite is similar to that of other insect causing irritation, swelling and redness of the skin. Unlike of insects though bed bugs are not carriers of diseases that can be transmitted to humans or their pets. The only time a persons life can be put in jeopardy from a bed bug bite is if a person has a severe allergic reaction that can lead to Anaphylactic Shock!

Using Temperature To Get Rid Of Bed Bugs

Since bed bugs have a narrow tolerable temperature survival range they can be killed effectively killed with cold and hot temperatures. Some pest control professional use such methods in place of pesticides or where pesticides can not be used to get rid of bed bug infestations.

What You Can You Do To Get Rid Of Bed Bugs

First minimize as much clutter as you can to be able to quickly find those blood sucking critters. Once you have found them utilize a vacuum cleaner to clean blankets, cloth items, stuffed toys, garments, jackets... Wash these in about 160 degrees Fahrenheit hot water to wipe out any bed bugs the vacuum cleaner could not get and to also kill any eggs or hatchlings to tiny to see that may be on your clothing.

Next separate you mattress and box spring, take apart your bed frame to reveal all crevices that the insects could be using as a hiding place. Vacuum and thoroughly clean these areas with a product such as Eco Living Friendly or All-Stop-Contact-Killing-Spray which are Non Toxic Eco Friendly Bed Bug Killers.

Unlike pesticides these bed bug treatment products are 100% Eco-friendly and safe to work with around children and pets, hospitals, hotels, your work place and of course you home or flat. They are specially formulated using natural components to kill bed bugs and come premixed for you to use it promptly. Additionally they are also effective in dealing with scabies, mites, lice, fleas and other insect difficulties.

Now turn your focus to your mattress and box spring; examine each item for any tears or holes as these make entry ways for bed bugs to live and breed. If Bed Bugs are found to be hiding in your mattress and or box spring what normally would be done is to use a regulated pesticide to destroy them. As there are constraints on using pesticide a better solution would be to use a Bed Bug Mattress Cover and a Box Spring Cover which will totally seal your mattress and box spring. You may also spray these items with the natural products discussed above and when dry seal each with a suitable cover.

Turning your attention to the pieces of furniture, remove the draws from your desk, night stand and dresser; inspect the furniture inside and out and thoroughly clean all likely areas where the Bed Bugs may very well hide again with an Eco Friendly 100% Natural Bed Bug Killer.

Since bed bugs prefer to live in cracks and crevices you need to seal the holes in your residence which provide entry or allow bed bugs to reside within these gaps. Use caulking to close off cracks in walls, baseboards, areas around windows and pipes that may allow insects access into your home; please remember to check moldings as these tight regions make perfect nesting sites for bed bugs.

Additionally, you will have to seal the exterior of your home, it's also critical for you to get rid of any bird or bat nest and get rid of rodents that make use of your home as their home, since these kinds of small animals can serve as host for bed bugs and in time re-infestation will take place.

When this is done then you will have to clean each infested area of your home with a hard bristle brush to dislodge any eggs which may be attached to surfaces. Vacuum everything carefully and get rid of the vacuum cleaner bag in a sealed plastic bag to avoid contaminating some other area or anyone else for that matter with any living bed bugs.

If you clean with the Eco-Friendly Cleaners already stated you may be able to skip this scrubbing phase as these kinds of non toxic sprays will even kill Bed Bug Eggs.
