Can 70 percent ethanol kill the bed bugs?

If you submerge bed bugs in 70% ETOH solution, it will kill them. However, if you just apply it to a surface, and expect it to kill bed bugs that crawl over it, that won't work. The ethanol will evaporate quickly, and once it's dry, it's not effective in killing much, although it might do an okay job repelling bed bugs for a little while, but ethanol isn't a safe chemical to expose humans to.

Is bedbugs contagess?

I think you mean "contagious" and you need to understand a bedbugs are insects that lives in or near where humans sleep. They come out at night to feed, by sipping the blood of a person who is asleep. It is not the kind of "bug" hospital staff refer to as being an infection, like "asuperbug" which is not an insect. But if any bed in your home becomes infested with bedbugs, perhaps as a result of bedbugs breeding in increasing numbers in or near that bed, some bedbugs may soon detect the breath of somebody else asleep at a greater distance elsewhere in the home and so move to that other bed in same home, set up their base there and feed off the occupant of that bed. So in time in any home after one bed gets bedbugs they are likely in time to infest all beds in the same home, and may even spread to beds in a nearby home.

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.
