Bedbugs

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.

After extensive research. None. That actually work on their own. Bed buds spread fast and their tricky little creatures so if you find out you have them it's best to get on top of it asap. I'd recommend Hot Shot Bed Bug and Flea foggers & Spray. The best spray would be the gallon size container of Hot Shot bed bug and flea spray it has a little spray gun attached to it. You can find it at home depot for approx: $10. However keep in mind that alone will not work. I would recommend using that in conjunction with the bed strips if you have an infestation in your bed. In addition to DE (diatomaceous earth). That should do the trick.

It's more of a masking /repellent than a contact spray with no residual. Bedbugs are hardy. If you want a good aerosol, try ECOPCOACU or ECOPCOARX (acronyms)-they are both chemical free (plant/food oils) but kill them instantly. I've seen them on Ebay. The only diff is ARX has residual other doesn't. The tough part is the box springs, you should get a slipcover for the mattress set or consider replacing if they are inside or they could come back.

Nothing. It might hurt. I've been bitten and it hurt but it was more of a surprise than anything else. There will be no lasting effects. And they DO NOT sting as some people may think. They have no stinger.

That depends directly on the individual that was attacked. The resulting severity of the bite is different with each person. When a BedBug "bites" you what happens is the nasty little creature secretes a couple of chemicals at the point of the bite. One is ananesthetic that stops you from feeling the pain of the bite and waking up. The other is an anti coagulant to make sucking your blood easier for them. How each individual reacts to those chemicals is what determines the severity of the bite and the time it will take to go away.

What you see as a bite is an allergic reaction. In some cases that reaction can be very dangerous and has even been known to bring on asthma attacks.

Bed bugs can be extremely hard to kill. Some pesticides, including those you can buy at the store, will kill any bed bugs that they actually touch. However, getting rid of hidden bed bugs is almost impossible that way. The best way to kill them is to heat the room they are in to at least 115 degrees F and hold it there for a minimum of 4 hours. The bedbugs cannot survive that much heat for that long.

There are a wide range of chemicals that can be used to kill bedbugs. Several of these options are nontoxic to pets. If you have pets, it is best to look for one that says on the bottle that it is pet-safe. If hiring an exterminator, ask what you need to do to minimize risk to your pets.

Most chemicals used to kill bed bugs, lice, and scabies are not harmful to humans or pets, and are 100% safe to use. Be sure to read all the documentation that comes with the product you choose, and follow all recommended precautions when using these types of products.

From what I've read, they can live/hide in wall cracks and furniture. They live were the food (read YOU) are. They don't have to be inside a mattress that just seems a convinient place for them.

days

There are not many black bugs that will be on beds other than bed bugs. Sometimes people are not allergic to the ed bugs and will not break out of bitten. The bugs could possible be book louse since they are black and small.

Don't! It's the worst thing you can do!!

I have these things in my apartment and I am just getting professional treatment now. It takes 40 days because I have to be the bait, sleep in my bed every night and GET BITTEN so that they will climb on my bed-frame which has been sprayed with a professional pesticide that causes them to die slowly and not be able to lay eggs.

The REASON I have to have my apartment treated like this (and it's unbearable) is that I used 2 smoke bombs in the rooms where I was being bitten, and they caused the bugs to scatter throughout the room.

Now there are a few of them hiding all over the place, it's a nightmare!

If you have a small infestation just vacuum and clean and if you can try and isolate your bed (double sided carpet tape around the outside of the sheet), you might be alright.

Otherwise, I know it's expensive and it sucks but really, call a reputable pro because, I've spent a year trying to beat these things on my own and it's ruined me. Save yourself the aggravation and sort it out now with someone who really knows how to get rid of them.

Yes they can harm anybody.

Please clean your child and its possessions properly. It is disturbing that a newborn is dealing with bedbugs.

Yes. Bedbugs may lay their eggs in somebody visiting's clothes, such as in a pocket or seam, or perhaps a live bedbug will crawl in there without the person knowing. When the person gets back to their own home and perhaps takes the clothes off and leaves them lying about, either the eggs will hatch or the live bug will try to find a new source of food. In either case it will smell the breath of somebody asleep and make for that bed, so that could mean the start of an infestation in that home.

No that is unlikely though not totally impossible. You see the point is people do not have bedbugs and do not normally carry them around with them. Beds and homes do have bedbugs. But can I explain this better. The bedbugs will stay in hiding places in your bedding or near your bed and only come out at night when somebody is asleep in that bed to feed or else if they get disturbed, such as when you make your bed or tidy your room. When they come out at night, you will then get bitten because your bed is the problem not you. People's beds are in close proximity such as in a dormitory of a barrack room, then bedbugs in one person's bed do often move across to the neighbouring person's bed. In private houses or apartments too if one person sleeping in that home gets them in their bedroom and it gets infested, some bedbugs may in time move to other bedrooms in the same home and feed off the person using that bed, and so that bedroom may also become infested in time. The point to understand is bedbugs will multiply over a period of time if you have them anywhere in your home and they find people when asleep by your breath and that is what attracts them to you. So it is most important to get rid of them just as soon as you know you have a bedbug problem anywhere in the home. Do nothing and the problem will just get worse and worse as the months go by, and thenif somebody comes to visit that home they could end up unwittingly with a bedbug laying its eggs in their clothing and import it into their home. So your visitors home gets an infestation due to your negligence in not dealing with the problem.

Lots of animals do. Mammals, mainly (except dolphins, whales, and orcas) and arachnids (spiders, 8-legged creatures). If you're looking for types of animals:

Dog

cat

pig

platypus

hamsters

rats

mice

cougars

lions

tigers

bears

spiders

scorpions

ticks

fleas

There's lots more, but this is a VERY obvious question.

Well sort of - but be aware the word "contagious" is rather a misnomer. I think you mean if you are staying by yourself in a hotel and there is a bedbug infestation affecting your bedroom which results in female bedbugs laying their eggs in your holdall which you then unwittingly take back to your home, and then when the bedbug nymphs eggs hatch in your home will the bedbugs necessarily come to you to feed in your bed rather than to other people's beds also living in your home. The answer is they may be attracted by the CO2 breath when asleep ofwhoever's bed happens to be nearest. That may or may not be your bed or else somebody else's bed in your home. Once they have found food (i.e. a bed with somebody asleep in it) they can feed off, that will usually become their base very near where that particular person sleeps. But if several people sleep in very close proximity bedbugs may alternate on different nights to feed off different people's blood in the same bedroom or dormitory. If the bedbugs in one person's bed then multiply and become an infestation, that problem will very likely spread into other people's beds in that home or sometimes in nearby apartments or homes as well.
