Can bed bugs live in a car in the summer?
This is a Yes and No answer. It all depends on where you live.
In most places during the summer if you leave your car outside in the sun for hours and the entire inside of the car reaches temperatures of over 120 F for any length of time it will kill the bedbugs and their eggs.
Don't forget there are so many places in a car for these nasty creatures to hide that all those places need to be hot to kill all the bedbugs.
If that doesn't work then you need a professorial pest company to seal up your car and fumigate it. If you go that route be very careful as the chemicals can linger and be dangerous to anyone riding in the car until it dissipates.

Do bed bugs live in foam mattresses like Tempur-Pedic?
It is not the mattress that gets bedbugs but the bed. Bedbugs are attracted to a sleeping person in a bed. Once a bedbug has had a blood meal off somebody sleeping in that bed they will normally find a hiding place as close as possible to that bed which may or may not be in the mattress. It could be in the sheets, the bed construction, the floor, the walls or furniture or books near the bed. Bed bugs can be kept at bay with mattress protectors.
Does everyone have an allergic reaction to brown recluse spider bites?
No, not everyone has an allergic reaction to the bite of the brown recluse spider. In fact most people don't have an allergic reaction. But people do react to the venom the spider injects. It's powerfully toxic and can pose a deadly threat in young children or the older or infirm. Certainly if someone has an allergic reaction to the venom in addition to the effects of the toxins, this will complicate medical treatment and make the bite a much more serious threat to life.

Can naptha be used for bed bugs?
Yes, it can - but you must take serious safety precautions when using it. The suggested amount is one gallon for each 750 cubic feet of space. The room must be sealed tight to prevent the vapor from leaking out. You'll want to focus on areas where the bed bugs are known to congregate - baseboards and skirting, etc (you can use a baster or syringe to get into those areas more efficiently). You need to wear a proper mask with the appropriate filters while applying the naptha. The warmer you can make the room prior to application, the better. You want to try for at least 80 degrees Fahrenheit or higher, if possible. Give the room time to heat adequately, including the walls and ceiling. Before application of the naptha, ensure that there are no open flames - extinguish any fireplaces, furnaces, or other sources of heat. Spray from the top-down - starting with roofing space above the room, if necessary. After application, the room should be left for about 24 hours before ventilating. At that point, simply opening a window for about half an hour is sufficient, as the naptha will dissipate quickly. You'll want to allow the room to continue to ventilate for at least another day, to ensure that there is no concentration remaining. But the room will be safe for re-entry around the 30 minute mark.
Do bed bugs live in home plants?
No. They need blood to live, but can be dormant for some time in wood.
NO-SEE-UMS. What a royal pain. They dont live in water, they fly in the air. The best thing to do is get a outside fogger/sprayer and spray the entire area. This will kill all the flying insects. They are called no see ums because they are the same color as skin. Insect spray can work as well as baby oil. Both will deter or kill them.
