Bedbugs

The effect of having bedbugs in your bed can be very different on different people. With some even with a severe bedbug infestation of their bed they may not observe any noticeable effect even though the bedbugs have had numerous meals off them while they are asleep. But with some other people having bedbugs in their bed can cause very bad skin rashes or conspicuous blisters which can be mistaken for scabies or shingles and be very painful. Most people are somewhere between these two extremes.

This variation is mainly because some people are allergic to the coagulant/anaesthetic chemical a bedbug injects into them before commencing its meal some are not. So while any person does not feel anything during the 5 minutes or so during the night while a bedbug is actually on them having its meal, and will very probably remain asleep, when the anaesthetic wears off it may then start to itch, perhaps maddeningly where the bedbug pierced their skin.This may cause an urge to scratch vigorously, either while still asleep or after waking, to try to obtain relief. In some extreme cases that may lead to skin poisoning particularly if they have dirty finger nails while scratching.

But with certain people, it can take many days after a bedbug has had a meal before the big very nasty looking red blisters appear with some people.There are other unpleasant effects caused to some people. Insomnia can be caused particularly if the person is aware his bed has a problem or other psychological damage to them. This can lead to many sleepless nights leading to fatigue, acute tiredness during the day perhaps causing him or her to make mistakes at work in the daytime or emotional problems like bad tempered outbursts.

Another effect of sleeping in an infested bed with a few people can be anaemia due to the bedbug's meal taking away oxygen carrying pigments from the human's bloodstream so leading to destruction of their red blood cells, and the consequences of that can be failure of normal maturation of their bone marrow and general feeling of weakness. But most victims of bedbugs, whether male or female, will not suffer these kind of effects and, as stated above, some never even realise they have bedbugs in their bed. Everybody is different.

Finding out they actually spread if you move couches, sofas or other furniture. To keep my bed bed bug free, I threw away my wooden headboard. Though I loved the way it looked, I had found many eggs there and the thought of keeping it stressed me out. Instead, I bought a cheap metal frame. Bed bugs don't like to live in metal. I moved the bed a foot from the wall on all sides so no bed bugs could crawl up the wall into the bed. I placed each foot of the bed frame in special bed bug traps. You can make traps yourself by pouring mineral oil in a small container and sticking the foot of each bed in the container. You could also coat the leg of each bed in double-sided carpet tape.This way you can see if any bugs are trying to get to you.

its not seirous; even though they itch like hell and take a few weeks to go away; call a bed bug specialist rite away to get your house sprayed . theres no way to get rid of them they have to gradually go away on there own . bed bugs are a big problem and theres no way to get rid of them w.o specialist . its expensive but worth it .

No, they eventually spread in your whole place hiding behind light switches, any cracks, bedding, duvets and cloths..etc

Rebuilding your room would only give a new place for them to live. Get the fumigators in and maintain hovering and cleaning.

If you don't feel the bite, you won't. Even if you got bitten in the doctor's office the bug might have been on your clothing when you left your house.

Yes, bedbugs can occasionally get into appliances, but it's not common. They typically prefer hiding in areas close to their food source, like beds and furniture. However, they may find their way into crevices or parts of appliances if they are in proximity to infested areas. Regular cleaning and inspection can help prevent their spread to appliances and other areas of the home.

They are only known to sometimes carry 24 pethogens.

No I am sorry that is not the way to get rid of a bedbug infestation. That outside temperature is just not going to kill your bedbugs! The reason is firstly studies have found the thermal point that kills bedbugs is much higher than that i.e. 47.8 degrees Celsius and also a constant exposure of 20 minutes or more is needed to kill them with heat, while unhatched bedbug eggs need to be exposed to that temperature constantly for 90 minutes to destroy them all.

In other words when you bring your stuff back inside there will almost definitely still be an uncertain number of surviving live adult bedbugs and perhaps many more unhatched eggs so you are likely to get further visits from increasing numbers of them.

But also bear in mind that if you think you are getting bitten by bedbugs at night in your bed, that means after each bedbug has enjoyed its meal of your blood, after finishing its meal each bedbug now engorged with your blood will then crawl back to its daytime base to sleep, and worse still each female bedbug will probably lay another batch of about half a dozen eggs somewhere.

The point is there are also a wide variety of places the bedbugs may reside in during the day other than in your mattress or your bed's structure or in bedside furniture. They commonly for example go through a tiny gap in the wall or floorboards or even ceiling or in your fixed furniture like wardrobe, so will not be accessible in the day time. More and more eggs may well be getting laid down at such an inaccessible place you can not get at each day. Which means when these eggs hatch and in time become adult bedbugs your infestation will just get worse and worse.

No - to get rid of a bedbug infestation you will probably need to call in a ptofessional pest exterminator and they may need to use their specially trained dogs to sniff out and locate where the bedbug nests and unhatched eggs are before commencing the extermination, and they usually need several visits to complete the job.

It is possible to do it yourself if you cannot afford to call in a professional exterminator. If so you can try steam heating inside the house but doing it that way is very slow as you do need to concentrate the heat at every crack and crevice anywhere in the bedroom ideally with equipment radiating at a concentrated temperature of at least 70 degrees Celsius, and you need to do steaming into every inch of surface. All experiences suggest even then heat treatment with a steamer can substantially reduce numbers but will not on its own get rid of an infestation. Freezing is a better method but that too is not a simple job either.

They are attracted to the scent of banana so if your animal smells anything like bananas their is a possibility that they will get on your animal.

He obviosuly has got it bad for you, looks like he's been bitten by a bug alright- the love bug!

They can get anywhere they can fit. I have bedbugs too, but they've never bitten my genitalia.

Bed bugs can survive upto 6 to 7 months without blood and will thrive in conditions where there is no light. Therefore thoroughly inspect all furniture while it's in storage from time to time and also when you're moving your furniture in and out of storage. Call a professional immediately if you suspect or find an infestation.

It is called an antlion (one word). Sometimes you can catch one by taking a thin blade of grass or a small stick and simulating an ant struggling to get out of it's slippery earth one.

heat is actually what kills bed bugs. So wash in hot hot water and then dry on the hottest dryer setting
