Bed Bug Control London
Bed bugs are parasitic insects which live around our sleeping areas and feed on human blood. These tiny parasites don't just live in our mattress, cushions, pillows, furniture, bed and voids in the wall but they may hide in nearby areas too. Bedbug infestation in London has grown to an alarming rate in a past few years. Earlier detection of these pest infestations is critical for bed bug control in London. Bed bug can enter our premises hidden in our clothes, luggage or second hand furniture. If you are moving into a new apartment, there may be chance that it could be infested with bedbugs prior to your arrival. Bed bugs can survive months without food as they lie dormant but when they found some hosts; their number may rise significantly making bed bug control in London more complex. Bed bug may survive the wide temperature range but can not survive very freezing or very hot temperatures. So the method of their extermination includes heat treatment, steam treatment and cold treatment too. Also infested furniture must be disposed of.
One of the methods of exterminating bed bug infestation is a chemical method of use of pesticide. But with bed bugs now resistant to pesticides like DDT, chemical extermination is quite difficult. Their population is now resistant to many other chemicals too. In addition to their chemical resistance, chemical methods involve spraying pesticides in their habitat areas which generally includes our mattress, cushions, pillows, furniture and bed. Spraying these areas may induce allergic to humans as they are powerful chemicals which can come in contact with humans directly. Therefore their usage may not be advocated. Sometimes people use vacuuming for removal of bed bugs but this method is not completely helpful unless the complete area is vacuumed properly and no holes should be left unattended. This method is quite tiresome.
One of the other methods used in the extermination of bed bugs is the application of hot steam. The temperature of the steam used must be higher than that of their survival range. In this method hot steam is applied directly over the infested areas. This method of bed bug control is quite efficient.
