HOW TO GET RID OF BEDBUGS

 

HOW TO GET RID OF BEDBUGS

Bedbugs measure just 5 millimeters across, which is smaller than a pencil eraser. These bugs are smart and tough, and they reproduce quickly. Bedbugs know where to hide to avoid detection and can live for months between meals. A female can lay 500 eggs in her lifetime.

It’s no surprise that these tiny bloodsuckers can cause a lot of trouble in your home. If they get into bed with you, they can leave red, itchy welts all over your body.

Certain factors can make bedbugs harder to remove. You may have a tougher time ridding your home of them if you have a lot of clutter or you travel often and bring new bedbugs home in your luggage.

Read on for a step-by-step guide on getting rid of bedbugs.

 

1. Make sure you really have bed bugs, not fleas, ticks or other insects.

You can compare your insect to the pictures on our Identifying bed bugs Web page or show it to your local extension agent. (Extension agents are trained in pest control issues and know your local area.)

2. Don’t panic!

It can be difficult to eliminate bed bugs, but it’s not impossible. Don’t throw out all of your things because most of them can be treated and saved. Throwing stuff out is expensive, may spread the bed bugs to other people’s homes and could cause more stress.

3. Reduce the number of hiding places — Clean up the clutter.

A cluttered home provides more places for bed bugs to hide and makes locating and treating them harder. If bed bugs are in your mattress, using special bed bug covers (encasements) on your mattress and box springs makes it harder for bed bugs to get to you while you sleep. Leave the encasements on for a year. Be sure to buy a product that has been tested for bed bugs and is strong enough to last for the full year without tearing.

4. Regularly wash and heat-dry your bed sheets, blankets, bedspreads and any clothing that touches the floor.

This reduces the number of bed bugs. Bed bugs and their eggs can hide in laundry containers/hampers Remember to clean them when you do the laundry.

5. Do-it-yourself freezing may not be a reliable method for bed bug control.

While freezing can kill bed bugs, temperatures must remain very low for a long time. Home freezers may not be cold enough to kill bed bugs; always use a thermometer to accurately check the temperature. Putting things outside in freezing temperatures could kill bed bugs, but there are many factors that can affect the success of this method.

6. Kill bed bugs with heat, but be very careful.

Raising the indoor temperature with the thermostat or space heaters won’t do the job. Special equipment and very high temperatures are necessary for successful heat treatment. Black plastic bags in the sun might work to kill bed bugs in luggage or small items, if the contents become hot enough. Bed bugs die when their body temperatures reaches 45°C (113°F). To kill bed bugs with heat, the room or container must be even hotter to ensure sustained heat reaches the bugs no matter where they are hiding

7. Don’t pass your bed bugs on to others.

Bed bugs are good hitchhikers. If you throw out a mattress or furniture that has bed bugs in it, you should slash or in some way destroy it so that no one else takes it and gets bed bugs.

8. Reduce the number of bed bugs to reduce bites.

Thorough vacuuming can get rid of some of your bed bugs. Carefully vacuum rugs, floors, upholstered furniture, bed frames, under beds, around bed legs, and all cracks and crevices around the room. Change the bag after each use so the bed bugs can’t escape. Place the used bag in a tightly sealed plastic bag and in an outside garbage bin.

9. Turn to the professionals, if needed.

If you cannot wipe out bedbugs on your own, it’s time to get the pros involved. Chogon Facilities Services Ltd have professional exterminator officers (fumigators) who have the advantage of using chemicals and other treatments that are not available to you. They have insecticides that both kill bugs on contact and that stay inside furniture and cracks to kill bedbugs in the long term. You can reach them via: +2348072292381

HOW TO PREVENT COCKROACHES AND BUGS AT HOME

Easy remedies that prevent cockroaches and bugs at home (Kitchen)

Have you ever come across those creepy crawling cockroaches and bugs in your kitchen, just after a few hours of cooking a meal? There’s nothing more disgusting than finding these creepy bugs and cockroaches running around the kitchen, but have you ever thought, how these bugs find their way to your kitchen despite cleaning the kitchen everyday?

Well, this might freak you out, but even after cleaning or wiping the kitchen with water everyday, these cockroaches can breed under the sink, drains and corners of cabinets or below the slabs, but cleaning the kitchen with the right ingredients can keep these at bay.

Not only are these bugs and crawling insects disgusting but they can also be harmful for health and lead to several diseases and cause food poisoning. Thus, cleaning the kitchen in the right way is essential and using the right ingredients while cleaning can keep these insects at bay. Here a few easy hacks that always work.

 

  1. Hot Water and Vinegar

This is a simple hack; you don’t need to look around for ingredients everywhere as you can simply find these in your kitchen. Just take some hot water, mix 1 portion of white vinegar and stir well, wipe slabs and clean around the cook tops with this solution and pour this solution in the kitchen drains in the night, this will disinfect the pipes and drains and would keep cockroaches from climbing up into the kitchen.

 

  1. Hot Water Lemon and Baking Soda

Another easy kitchen hack that you can use to keep the disgusting crawlers at bay is by mixing 1 lemon, 2 tablespoon baking soda in 1litre hot water, stir it well and pour in the drain outlets or wash the area below the sink or slabs with this solution to stop the breeding of cockroaches in the kitchen.

 

  1. ​Boric Acid and Sugar

This age-old remedy works wonders, just mix some boric acid and sugar, then spread it across the places where you find cockroaches breeding. While the sugar lures the bugs, boric acid kills them immediately. So, next time you come across these bugs and cockroaches try this hack.

 

  1. ​Essential Oils

If you used these oils for skin care or other healing purposes, then you would be amazed to know that essential oils like peppermint oils and lavender oil can help in keeping bugs at bay. Just spray some essential oils around the kitchen and cabinets, and allow the aroma to spread its magic.

 

  1. ​Cucumbers

This delicious yet hydrating veggie tastes amazing, but did you know cockroaches find the essence and aroma of cucumbers disgusting! Yes, this is true and keeping a few slices around the places where you find cockroaches can keep them away from your kitchen.

 

  1. ​Neem Extracts

From neem leaves to neem oil, these work miraculously in keeping roaches and bugs away from your kitchen. Just keep a few leaves of neem in the kitchen and you can witness the change in just 3 days. You can also spray some neem oil mixed with hot water to stop the roaches and bugs from breeding in the kitchen.

 

  1. ​Cinnamon

This spice can keep creepy cockroaches at bay, the strong essence of cinnamon can keep these bugs from climbing up the kitchen slabs and cabinets. Just sprinkle some freshly ground cinnamon powder around the kitchen and keep these roaches from breeding.

 

  1. Fumigate your Home

Once an infestation has been established, cockroaches can spread quickly to other rooms and neighbouring properties.
