I always shower before going to bed also, dont know if this help or not? but i like to think it does. and it keeps your sheets clean. Never sleep on your matress with no cover, and always use pillow cases, wash your duvet regular.

Bed Bugs and Bed Mites – How to Get Rid of Them is a post from: Bed Bugs

Bed bugs are attracted to places of great traffic. That make houses on top of their favorite breeding places. So to protect your home from their ill effects, you must know the bed bug treatments that you can implement. But which of them really work?

Well, all techniques to kill bed bugs can effectively work. But you have to make sure that you execute them well. But let us say you want to use a bed bug spray. Where can you get one that will really eliminate bed bugs?

That’s the exact concern of one of our readers.

My house is full of bed bugs, and as much as I vacuum, they don’t leave. I searched the internet for Bed Bug removal sprays, but I wasn’t able to find any at stores. Does anyone know a good store where I can by some kind of spray/medicine that can get rid of them for good?

Surviving the same problem, another of our helpful readers shared her experience:

NO NO NO NO DO NOT buy a bed bug spray!!!
It is not going to work unless you spray directly on bed bugs.

Wash all your bedding items with HOT HOT water.

Use a steam cleaner on the mattress to kill live bed bugs.

Apply Bed Bug Powder from the site below.

Put the sheet back on the mattress.

We had the same issue as you are having. We tried sprays, foggers, bombs, and even professional exterminators.
And none of them worked, but bed bug came back after a few weeks.

But after using the powder, we don’t seem to get bitten at all. The powder is natural powder and is safe to humans and pets.

The price is also reasonable, and it is easy to use.

Good luck.

Our Say:

About the bed bugs keep coming back, it’s probably because you haven’t removed all the bugs and their eggs when you did the vacuuming. In just a little time, those eggs can hatch, grow and multiply leading to another infestation. Before and after you vacuum, you should conduct an inspection to know where you should concentrate vacuuming and to know if there is any of them left after process.

About the bed bug spray, there are many pest control companies on the web that sell effective bed bug solutions. You can make an order online. However, before making your purchase, make sure that your choice of bed bug spray is not just effective but also safe. Bedbugbully is one example of bed bug spray that effectively works and that is made of 100% biodegradable ingredients. Thus it is safe to health even to the environment.

When conducting the bed bug inspection, make sure to do it right to not scare the pests away and to not widen the infestation. Watch the video below for a guide on how to do it.

How To Get Rid Of Bed Mites – The Bed Mites Control is a post from: Bed Bugs

If you have bed bugs, your only option is to get rid of them. And you have to do it quick or the infestation will become worse. But should you go for a chemical-based treatment just to get rid of the pests fast enough? Would it be safe? That’s what one of our readers was asking.

I have bed bugs for quite some time in my house. I tried to kill them by buying a chemical spray myself but it did not work. I called a specialized company to do the treatment. However the chemicals they use are very strong and much stronger than the chemicals that we can find in a store. This was the only solution I had as I have suffered a long time but I am very worried that the chemicals are very toxic for my health. Please, somebody who had a professional treatment, can you let me know if indeed I am in danger?

Opting once for a chemical treatment, another of our readers responded.

The chemicals they use are indeed toxic, but no less toxic than say the ones you can buy at the store in a can if used properly. When i had my hotel treated, we of course, made everyone check out for 2 days. As long as you cannot smell the chemicals, it is ok.

These chemicals that are being applied, must be approved by the Food and Drug Administration of whatever country you are in, presuming you don’t live in Uganda or someplace like that. I live in a developing country, and for LEGAL authorized application of these chemicals, the ones they use must be approved by the FDA and if they are cancer causing agents or can cause harm to humans, they people performing the application MUST tell you specific guidelines for how the house should be handled after application.

I have used Maxxthor, Pyrethene, and some really long word that begins with an “S’… they smelled quite strong, but after one day i was able to reside in the hotel (as a test subject) and for all the chemicals other than Pyrethene, i was able to reside in the hotel just a few hours later. This is probably due to the fact that the chemical itself is mixed, normallly, with 80-90% water.

I suppose you may be ultra-sensitive to chemicals, but the person applying them has a Material Safety Data Sheet for each chemical they are applying, which will contain the information you need regarding how long it takes for the area to be safe.

One thing you should be sure of (completely unrelated to the odors) is that you get a guarantee, because i naively assumed that the exterminator knew what he was doing, the chemicals didn’t work, and i simply threw away money. Get the guarantee.

Hope this helps, even though it was quite long!

What We Have To Say:

Chemicals can effectively kill bed bugs. However, they can also put your health at risk. Even just a little exposure to them can cause a lot of problems. Maybe you will not see or feel their negative effects immediately but surely, they can endanger your health. Some of the less serious health problems they can bring are allergies, irritations and breathing problems. Even just those can already give you huge medical bills. Just think of how much more will their serious effects cost you.

Apart from being effective, your bed bug treatment must also be safe to your health. There are a lot of natural and effective bed bug remedies that you can implement. There are also many green bed bug killers that you can purchase. If you can get rid of bed bugs with them effectively, then why still opt for a chemical-based solution?

Here’s one safe and effective bed bug treatment that you can implement yourself.
