Although bedbugs can be very disturbing, there is no reason to panic if you have them. The strength and will of bedbugs is clearly shown when they can live in even the cleanest of homes. It is not a poor reflection upon your housekeeping habits if you have them. There are a few ways that you can not only prevent bugs from moving in, but deal with them if they are already in your home.
There are several actions you could take which may make the bedbug situation worse. Many people panic when they first discover they have bedbugs. Don’t do this, try to remain calm. Another mistake people make is to grab the nearest can of insecticide and start spraying or set off foggers. Spraying bug sprays is a big but common mistake many people make. The sprays may actually cause the bedbugs to try and hide or worse scatter. Plus the chemicals in these products aren’t good for pets or small kids. Another thing is these insecticides are not meant to be used on bedding, clothing and mattresses, who knows what other problems using such products could cause? Are you still planning on using a bedbug spray? If so be sure to read the directions on the can. Spray in cracks and other small spaces, where the little critters love to hide. There’s always a risk of getting bedbugs whenever you get new or used stuff. Brand new furniture isn’t guaranteed to be free from bedbugs. Bedbugs sometimes live in delivery trucks and warehouses. Just to be safe, you should plan on inspecting all furniture for bedbugs prior to it coming into your home. Keep in mind bedbugs are so small, you really will have to pay close attention while doing the inspection.
The name “bedbugs” gives some people the false impression that these insects only live in beds. It is true that these insects can live in almost every part of your home. Their real target, unfortunately, isn’t furniture but you (or possibly your pets).
Nothing is safe from bedbugs, including household items, a bird’s nest, or a hole in your wall. So when you check for them in your house, you have to thoroughly inspect every possible hiding place. These bugs can hide in any woodwork, a dresser, and even a nightstand. Bedbugs can be anywhere so you must check every possible location in your home.
Bedbugs are not very dangerous, however it is very upsetting to know they are in your home. The point is that these tiny insects actually feed on you and therefore their bites can be itchy and painful. Getting rid of these bugs can be a traumatic experience, which will be resolved when you finally eliminate them.
