Some Good Bed Bug Pesticides To Use

WHY USE BED BUG PESTICIDES ?

Bed bugs are one of the hardest pests to get rid of, they are very resilient and can hide in the smallest of spaces in your furniture.  And the fact that they have grown resistant to a lot of the pesticides we use today don't help.  There have been an upsurge in bed bug cases in North America due to these reasons, and the fact that over seas travel has become more and more common. 

 Recently it has been said that bed bug infestations in North American have gone up 500% in the past 10 to 15 years. 

LET US SEE WHAT BED BUG PESTICIDES WE CAN USE 

During the 40's and 50's the use of DDT (DichloroDiphentl Trichloroethane) pesticides were very popular and took care of the bed bugs of that era.  Not that DDT has been banned and can't be used as pest control anymore bed bugs have been on the rise ever since. 

There aren't that many insecticides that help in the control of bed bugs, and the ones that are out there are very expensive, and are strong chemicals.  

There has been some that say freezing them may help, but I haven't heard anything else about it.  

There are other things that may help like,

•  Diatomaceous earth, 
• Neem Oil, 
• and Rubbing Alcohol.  

1. The Diatomaceous earth is a different variety of fossils of algae and other things ground into a powder, by sprinkling it on bed bug colonies it gets on their exoskeleton and dehydrates them and killing them.  
2. Neem Oil is made from the bark and leaves of the Neem Tree, by spraying it on carpets and curtains it is a natural bug repellent that has been seen to help a little.
3.   Rubbing alcohol  can be sprayed on adult bed bugs and eggs to control them, although it's not used as permanent treatment it may help a little as well.

RUBBING ALCHOHOL

Either way if you have a bed bug infestation you need to contact a pest control agency.  The chemicals they use will be more effective then anything that is sold over the counter since the solutions used to kill them are so strong.  This might be expensive but once they are gone you will be relieved and realise that it was a worthy expense.
