Bedbugs

Yes, anywhere that is warm. They don't just like beds actually as I have them they like anywhere they can hide even laptops, they prefer warm if they can't find a source of wood like your box spring, I have a infestation behind my fridge, I brought in a box spring and had to through it out a week later. In a last resort they will go into your walls and come back in at night to search for food and warmth. If you have them in your walls you can't do to much but plug your sockets and keep your house neat and clean and minimize hiding spots. Oh yeah, buy a cat, the bugs hate movement and run away fast.

Yes! But only for a period of about 5 minutes while it is having its meal of your blood which normally happens when you are asleep in your bed, the favourite time being about one hour before dawn. After completing its feast which may take 5 minutes or slightly more, it will then crawl or jump off you and return to its hiding place where it remains throughout each day unless disturbed.

That will NOT be on you but will most likely either somewhere in your bed's structure such as in the seams and crevices of your mattress, or somewhere in your bedroom or nearby where you sleep. Favourite places include furniture or if you have a lot of clutter in your bedroom that could be a very likely hiding place, or else in chest of drawers or wardrobes, or under the carpet, or in the floor boards or in cracks and crevices in the room walls or various other places.

You will probably not wake up during the 5 minutes or so while the bedbug is on you during the night and even if you do happen to wake up, you may still not be aware the bedbug is there. That is because the bedbug injects a chemical into you before commencing its meal, which contains a coagulant to stop your blood and oxygen carrying haemoglobin coming out too fast and an anaesthetic. The anaesthetic component once injected makes you numb at place the bedbug inserts its skin piercing equipment into you before starting its meal. So that is why you do not feel a thing in that part of your skin or feel a need to scratch until the anaesthetic wears off which will be long after the bedbug has finished its meals and returned to its hiding place engorged with your blood. But you may see little red spots in your bed linen when you make your bed next day, as it may excrete some of your blood on its way back.

You actually DO NOT have to buy a new bed - you can stay bed bug free by buying a mattress encasement also - http://www.bedbug.com.

They bury themselves way down in the bed to keep warm.

No , the bed bugs can live more 8 days without having blood.

Yes, bed bugs can go from one apartment or townhouse to another if they are also not treated in your townhouse. You can take a chance and not treat for them, but usually when a person in apartment or townhouse gets bed bugs, there is a chance that you could end up with those little fellows too. If your neighbor comes to your townhouse, they can have bed bugs on their clothes and leave them behind for you to enjoy. Call a professional to come over to see if you might have them and usually they will treat your townhouse to be cautious, but you will have to pay for this treatment unless you can prove that you don't have them already. Check to see the laws in your area to see who has to pay, some states are different then others.

Clean your bed sheeets.,,,,take a shower.....STAY CLEAN:]

Stating clean will help to identify a problem, and can assist in preventing bed bugs, however, you should keep in mind that bed bugs infestations are not caused by being dirty. Cluttered or messy homes merely makes it more difficult to identify and treat infestations.

They feed on your blood by piercing the skin and injecting a salivary fluid that causes your blood to flow (an anticoagulant) and they also use anesthetizes to numb your skin so you can't feel them feeding on your blood.

It is that saliva (or rather, the proteins in the saliva) that causes an allergic reaction in most people. The reaction causes redness, swelling, inflammation, and most of all, itchiness around the area of the bite. The redness looks different on different people, and can even vary in appearance depending on the location of the bite on your body. Some people have reported that the bites have a white mark or depression in the center, though that is not always the case. Over time, the shape and the color of the bite/s can change.

Reactions to the bites may be delayed. In fact, in some cases it can be a day or more before the welts appear. Once they appear, the welts shrink down to red spots, but those spots can last for days. It is estimated that around 30% of people do not have a reaction to bed bug bites. No itching, no swelling, nada.

Sure Bleach will kill them, if applied to them or a small amount of bleach in an enclosed space will kill the ones in that space. However the thing is, bed bugs feed on people so normal eating pesticides won't work. Alcohol in an enclosed space will work on any bugs. Soak a cotton ball with alcohol and let it kill the bugs, then you have a perfect non-squashed specimen. To get rid of bed bugs you'll need to get a matress bag, to trap them in, dry everything you can get in the dryer on hot for at least 10 min. best to dry bedding everyday.

Bed bugs are challenging pests to eliminate permanently since they are able to live for several months without feeding. They can hide in many tiny places, so inspections and treatments must be very thorough for a few months to fully eliminate them.

There are many bed bugs home remedies to get rid of them but not limited to:

Vacuuming

Hot Water Laundry

Steam Cleaning

Insecticides

Setting up Barriers and Traps

Mattress Encasements

If in your bed, pour rubbing alcohol in a spray bottle (do not dilute) take off all sheets and place into the washer. Spray your bed frame, and matress with the alcohol until its SOAKED. The alcohol will kill them. You can also use extream heat (professional steaming). Hope this helps!

The appearance of the bite would depend on the type of ant. Whatever the any the bite would look very similar to what it would look like on you unless the dog had a reaction which caused excess swelling at the bite site.

I only know about Leaf-cutter ants. They find leaves, let them rot, then eat the mold.

milie bug mainly affects Papaya tree and Seetha fruit tree. In the initial stages you can distroy this organism by spraying water to the affected areas of the plant in great force. Also try a mixture of tobacco juice, detergent soap and water. Ants play a major role in transferring this insect from one plant to another. So take measures to control ants in household plants. There is no specific insecticide available in India against this insect tilldate.

Not usually, but if you tried to i am sure it would suck up SOME of the bedbugs. Usually you would need a expert to come in and get rid of them, or you could just throw out the mattress and get a new one.

we want to know if roach bombs can kill bedbugs


Technically it can but not enough to justify the $8.00 can. They'll just seclude themselves if exposed but most are already tucked far enough away that a fog bomb will never harm them.

Pick them off with tweezers when you first notice them. You can drop in alcohol, water, or just squish them. Revisit the site every day for a few days and continue to remove them. Be diligent and you can eradicate this pest.

A mixture of ammonia and bleach will probably kill you, so it will also be harmfull to a spider. Seriously, don't mix any household chemicals to 'make' an insecticide. Please use specific agents that are developed to kill spiders for you own safety.

no they bite you in your bed

Eliminating bed bugs can be difficult, but there are some tips to reducing their effect. Regularly wash and heat-dry bed sheets, blankets, bedspreads, and any clothing that touches the floor as well as reducing the amount of clutter found throughout one's home.

Use Raid Flea killer..... spray it on your rugs and carpets, on, under and around your bed, couch and other pieces of fabric furniture. Better yet spray it all over your house or apartment. ( It's hard to track them down but always remember, Bed bugs nest no more than 5 feet away from their source of food)

Bed bugs are some of the most irritating p[parasites known to man. They mostly live in dark corners or cracked spaces in furniture. If your hair is long and unkempt, bed bugs may get in and hide but they generally don't live on human beings.
