For people with heavy infestation, here is the real
solution.
1) Throw away unwanted items. Wrap all your unwanted clutters in
plastic sheet before disposing them.
2) Wash all you clothing with thick detergent or hot water
before storing them in vacuum bags or ziplog bags. Clothing, wooden
areas and crack/nock are their favourite hidding and egg laying
places.
3) Buy the bed bug spray called SUPER BEG BUG SPRAY (the co. is
in Ubi) and spray into nock and cranny.
Which nock and cranny has bed bugs?. Do general tube spray into
nock and cranny. Next day when you sweep the floor and if you see
bug on the floor, you do a specific tube spray on the same area
until the bugs in that particular area is gone. Use this method for
the whole house and do it systematically.
4) Go buy a 1 or 5 litre hand pump spray from pest controller
and 1 litre of concentrated BUG insectide - FENDONA and/or CISLIN
(yellow page). Dilute the content and spray your floor areas with
it/them. (Follow strictly to the dilution instruction.)
You need to do this otherwise when you tube spray your house,
the begs will escape from one nock and cranny to hide again in
another and all your effort is wasted.
These bug are so potent that these insecticides will not kill
them immediately but cause them pain and disoriention first. This
is good otherwise without them these bugs can sprint in no time
from one nock or cranny into another.
5) All the methods I listed can only CONTROL the bed bugs. You
have to control it. Otherwise, the bugs not only spread but also
multiply quickly.
Unless you can be at home everyday disinfect, spray, sweep your
house, engage a pest controller. NEVER EVER engage a pest
controller without checking his credential or check out the pricing
and chemicals of other pest controllers. NEVER EVER believe them
when they say 2 treatments and your problem is solved.
ASK THEM WHAT CHEMICAL THEY USE. CrackDown, Cislin, Fendona can
only CONTROL and never eradicate a heavy infestation. General or
haphazard gassing will not penetrate into deep nock and cranny.
Also, make sure they use chemcial SPECIFICALLY for bed bugs.
FINALLY, you need to follow all the above five steps in order to
solve you problem. Miss any one and you can find the bugs back to
haunt you again.
