Will dry cleaning kill bed bugs?
Yes dry cleaning can kill bed bugs. From my experience, I had bed bugs all over my linens, sheets, pillow cases, even some of my clothes! I took it to get them dry cleaned because I found out that bed bugs die if you wash the infested articles in hot water at at least 120F. After you wash the infested articles you will need to take extra pre-caution to eliminate those already in the house that might be hiding in cracks and crevices, joints of bed frames, on the grooves of the head board, under your box springs, etc. etc.
I treated for bed bugs 3-4 times in 2 weeks. I repeated the process again. I used this spray called Steri-Fab and sprayed it on my mattress and on box springs. I vacuumed my mattress and box spring after I allowed it to dry. I also used dust, which is a pesticide dust, such as Delta Dust, into the cracks and crevices of my home which will prevent them from coming into my home.
Do not use dust where children play.
After I treated my mattress and box springs, I used Allerzip Protect-A-Bed mattress encasement, Protect-A-Bed box spring cover and Protect-A-Bed pillow case to prevent future bed bug infestation. These encasement, box cover, and pillow case prevents moisture from building up and traps the bed bugs causing them to die from lack of food and hiding place.
How effective is a bomb to get rid of bed bugs?
Not very. Using a store-bought "bomb" will not get very well into the wall voids and equipment where roaches like to hide. If you're going to try it on your own, the bait works best but be sure to read the directions and put it out like it says. If you put out too big of a glob they might not eat it. If the problem is particularly bad, you're better off in the long run to hire a pest company to come out and take care of it for you; you might pay more at the start, but, for bad problems, you would spend twice that and will probably call them in addition.
Because if you are talking about a mosquito when it bites you, it puts its saliva in your blood stream to help the blood to keep flowing while it sucks its "Meal"....The saliva from the mosquito will itch where it bit for a while until the bite is healed.
Concerning other bugs, the infection from the bite will itch until properly treated and also it will itch during the process of healing.
I hope this helped! :)

Is green clean degreaser effective on killing bedbugs?
No. If you did kill them with it, it would be by drowning them. Simple Green is nontoxic and biodegradable. It is safe around pets, fish tanks, grass, and shrubbery. Simple Green states on their website that it will not kill bacteria.
How long can bed bugs live in your clothes?
I don't believe that a tick could, or even would want to live in clothing. A tick is like a parasite, it travels from one body to the next, feeding off of the host. If a tick were on your clothing however, when you put it on it will most likely crawl onto you and may dig in to your body if you don't feel it beforehand. Make sure you check yourself regularly for ticks if you have found them in the past.
if you put a mattress cover on your bed, they can't chew through that so you will stop getting bit. but if you are spraying them with pesticides they will just adapt to them so it wont do any good!

they bite you three times or more in a row because you move and they end up in a different place or they are not getting enough blood from the previous spot so they move.
Will peppermint oil kill bed bugs?
Peppermint oil or pulegone irritates any insect that is pheromone sensitive. It forces bed bugs to flee, usually into the walls away from the initial area, then when followed up with the DE it kills some of the bed bugs by damaging the exoskeleton as they return to feed on humans.
Unfortunately DE is carcinogenic, and peppermint has some unpleasant side effects such as triggering seizures in people that are sensitive. It is your choice to risk using peppermint oil as a pest control agent. But there are better products out there.
Essential oils, can cross into the blood stream via the lungs, skin and through ingestion.
The lightest essentials oils cross over easily, where heavier oils do not, such as cedar oil, neem oil, and sesame oil.
Peppermint or pulegone, poisoning slows the heartbeat, shallow breathing, abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, convulsions, depression, dizziness, twitching, unconsciousness, uncoordinated movement, and flushing.
Peppermint or pulegone, thyme, clove, and oregano oils are all very light, and cross easily. Clove or Eugenol has a history of contamination with lighter fluid and paint thinner. Oregano oil is highly volatile, and so is Peppermint.
While all this can be true it rarely if ever happens with "natural" peppermint oil and is much less harmful than using "chemicals" to kill bedbugs. If you want to use an oil that will kill them for sure then use "cedar oil". This will kill all of them as long as you fog and spray every inch of your house and all of your belongings. If you live in an apartment complex then you will have to make sure that ALL of the units are treated, otherwise they will escape to an untreated apartment and then re-infest everyone again. While this can be a nightmare, you can get rid of them if you are diligent and follow ALL instructions to the letter. Using pest control can be effective too if this is your choice, it is a matter of which agent you want to use to rid them.
Also, be prepared to get rid of furniture and possibly moving. If you move, make sure that ALL of your stuff is treated and you do not bring "any" of the bugs with you to your new place!
I know about all of this as i myself survived an infestation in an apartment complex.
I now live somewhere new, bug free.

How do you get rid og gnats in flower bed?
To make a homemade gnat trap you will need the following items.
Large Lemonade or Cola bottle, this can be a two or three litre bottle.
Scissors and sharp knife, these will be needed to pierce bottle and cut the top off the bottle.
Vinegar, apple cider works the best, but you can use regular white if that's all you have on hand.
Sugar, just plain granulated sugar.
Water, enough water to fill the bottle half full.
1. Rinse out the lemonade or cola bottle.
2. Using a sharp knife, carefully go down about two inches from the top of the bottle and pierce the plastic, then using the scissors cut around the bottle taking the top off. You Don't want to cut to much or the top will not stay on your gnat trap when you turn it upside down.
3. Fill the bottle with half a cup of vinegar and half a cup of sugar (1/2 cup), and enough water to fill the bottle half full. Stir the liquid mixture around to mix the sugar in. Don't fill the bottle to full, or the gnats will be able to escape. The liquid should not be touching the opening of the bottle.
4. Place the lemonade or cola bottle top that you cut off on the bottle upside down into the opening of the bottle - if you find the top keeps falling inside the bottle you can use a piece of sticky tape to keep it in place. 5. Place the bottle in the vicinity of where the gnats are swarming or tie string around the bottle and hang it up around the trunk or branches of a tree.
