Living together with bedbugs just can not be called pleasant. Terrible traces remain from their bites, these insects are carriers of dangerous diseases. It is widely believed that parasites appear in cluttered rooms where they are rarely cleaned. But this is not so; they can be brought to your home on clothes or shoes.
Favorite places for bedbugs are sofas, armchairs, beds, that is, where a person spends a lot of time. Parasites feel great under carpets and behind skirting boards. But more often they settle in sofas - from there it is extremely difficult to etch them.
We must not forget that bugs can live for months without a source of nutrition - human blood. They just hibernate. The mechanical method of control, that is, manual collection of insects, will not help either.
Chemicals
Chemicals are considered effective in controlling bugs: aerosols (Perfos-P, Prima-U), powders (Riapan, Neopin), suspensions (GET), liquid products (Actellik, Lacterin)) Also get rid of uninvited guests will help "Adamant", "Empire", "Clean House", "Cucaracha", "Pyrethrum", "Fox".
Before using such products, carry out wet cleaning, put on gloves and a mask, pour the drug into the spray bottle. To get rid of bedbugs forever, process the entire sofa, do not miss a single gap, but it is better to disassemble it in advance. Also in the room do not disregard window openings, ventilation grilles, curtains, etc.
Heat treatment
In winter, the sofa is taken out onto the street. If the temperature outside the window is below –18 ° C, the bugs die during the day. If heat treatment is provided with temperatures above + 50 ° C, insects and their eggs die instantly. Also, upholstered furniture can be scalded with boiling water, but it will take a long time to wait until it dries.
Will folk remedies help?
They can be used if the foci of parasite damage are small. In this case, turpentine, naphthalene, kerosene, vinegar and transformer oil will help. Also on the sofa you can spread wormwood. But if the infection is strong, then folk remedies will not help. It is better to use chemicals, heat treatment or consult a specialist.
