BEDBUGS CONTROL SERVICES

 Cymbopogon citratus, also known as Thai lemongrass, is a natural and effective mosquito repellent. It contains the natural oil, citronella, which is safe and effective; in fact, lemon grass citronella is considered more effective than true citronella as an insect repellent.

 You can buy Thai lemon grass at garden centers and supermarkets, and it grows readily into a clump about 15” across and about two feet tall. To use as a mosquito repellent, break a stalk off from the clump and peel off the outer leaves, until you find the scallion-like stem at the base. Bend the stem between your fingers, loosening it, then rub it vigorously between your palms: it will soon become a pulpy, juicy mass. Rub this over all exposed skin, covering thoroughly at least once. You can also make a tincture using alcohol for spray applications. Plantings around the patio will also help repel mosquitoes.

 The active ingredient in most chemical-based mosquito repellents is DEET (N,N-diethyl-meta-toluamide), developed by the US military in the 1940s. This powerful chemical is absorbed readily into the skin and should be used with caution. Common side effects of DEET-based products include rashes, swelling, itching, and eye-irritation, often due to over-application. For safer use, consider the following:

 The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that repellents used on children contain no more than 10% DEET. Parents should assist children in applying DEET-based products.

 Recent research suggests that DEET products, used sparingly for brief periods, are relatively safe. Other research points to toxic encephalopathy associated with use of DEET insect repellents. Experts warn that DEET shouldn’t be used in combination with sunscreen because DEET shouldn’t be reapplied often.

 If mosquitos bite you, Ditch the Itch is a nontoxic cream that takes the itch out of mosquito bites.

 Flies are a nuisance around the home that bring along with them the threat of germs and disease. The first line of defence is preventing flies from entering your home. This includes sealing up doors, windows, and roof vents, and washing fruit and other produce when it comes into your home to eliminate any eggs it may be carrying. Next, try:

 Mint is an effective fly repellent. Small sachets of crushed mint can be placed around the home to discourage flies.

 Hang bay leaves, cloves and eucalyptus wrapped in small cheesecloth squares by open windows or doors. A few drops of eucalyptus oil on a scrap of absorbent cloth will also deter flies. Leave in areas where flies are a problem.

 Place a small, open container of sweet basil and clover near pet food or any open food in the house. You can also place fresh basil leaves on bananas and other fruit in your fruit bowl to discourage flies from landing there.

 Make your own flypaper with this simple recipe: mix ¼ cup syrup, 1 tablespoon granulated sugar, and 1 tablespoon brown sugar in a small bowl. Cut strips of brown kraft paper and soak in this mixture. Let dry overnight. To hang, poke a small hole at the top of each strip and hang with string or thread.

 For outdoor fly infestations, the best trap you can use is the Flies Be Gone trap, now available in our online store. This trap is a safe, non-toxic, pheromone-based outdoor trap used to control flies. Indoor flytraps are also available and can be discreetly placed in your window.

 The best defense against bed bugs is prevention, and this is easily achieved in rooms that have not yet been infected. If there is presence of bed bugs in a room, then a thorough cleaning and vacuuming is required, followed by preventive measures. Frequent travellers should be especially alert to early signs of bed bugs in the home.

Frequent travellers should be especially alert to early signs of bed bugs in the home.

 If you are sleeping in rooms where you suspect bed bug activity, non-toxic bed bug spray can be applied which kills bed bugs and their eggs on contact. It also acts to prevent bed bug activity for up to two weeks. This spray can be applied to mattresses, furniture, luggage and clothing.

 The first step in controlling bed bugs is to determine if there are bed bugs present in your home or hotel room. Non-toxic bed bug traps use heat, CO2, and a pheromone lure to attract bed bugs to a sticky glue surface. These traps are safe for air travel and can go in your luggage or carry-on bags.

 The best preventive measure against bed bugs is to apply non-toxic diatomaceous earth in the vicinity of bed bug activity. Be sure to use food-grade diatomaceous earth. Do not use pool-grade diatomaceous earth.

 Wash all bedding in hot water (120 degrees Fahrenheit or hotter). This will kill any bedbugs in the bedding.

Bed Bugs Control

 If there is a bed bug infestation, a thorough cleaning and vacuuming of the room is necessary. The most likely hiding places for bed bugs will be small cracks and crevices closest to where you sleep. The mattress and box spring should be lifted from the frame, and after vacuuming, sprinkle diatomaceous earth along the edges of the frame which holds the box spring. Personal items such as stuffed animals, blankets, etc. should be vacuumed and placed in plastic bags for several weeks.

 Cedar chips in a cheesecloth square, or cedar oil in an absorbent cloth will repel moths. The cedar should be ‘aromatic cedar’, also referred to as juniper in some areas.

 Homemade moth-repelling sachets can also be made using any of the following: bay leaves, cinnamon sticks, cloves, eucalyptus leaves, lavender, peppercorns or wormwood.

 Dried lemon peels are also a natural moth deterrent: simply toss into clothes chest, or tie in cheesecloth and hang in the closet.

 Natural attractant pheromones have been developed for controlling moths, and are now available as clothes moth traps and pantry moth traps.

 Diatomaceous earth is a safe and effective way to control earwigs in the home. One application in key spots (bathroom, baseboards, window frames) can be a long-term repellent.

 To trap earwigs, spray a newspaper lightly with water, roll it up loosely and secure with a string or rubber band. Place on the ground near earwig activity. The next morning pick up and discard the paper in a sealed container.

 Another method to trap earwigs is to take a shallow, straight-sided container and fill it half full with vegetable oil. Clean the trap daily; the oil can be reused.

 Silverfish prefer damp, warm conditions such as those found around kitchen and bathroom plumbing. Start by vacuuming the area to remove food particles and insect eggs. Silverfish can be easily trapped in small glass containers. Wrap the outside with tape so they can climb up and fall in. They will be trapped inside because they cannot climb smooth surfaces. Drown them in soapy water. The best preventive control is to remedy the damp conditions.

 According to the National Pest Management Association, the pest control industry was valued at $17.6 billion in 2019. Of that, the manufacturing sector accounted for $4.8 billion. The industry also employed more than 100,000 people in that year. If you are also planning to set up your pest control manufacturing business, here is all you need to know.

 Pest Control Manufacturing is a business that specializes in the production and distribution of products used to eliminate or prevent pests from entering homes, businesses, and other areas.

 These products can range from insecticides, rodenticides, and other chemical-based products to biological control agents, natural repellents, and other non-chemical options. Pest Control Manufacturing companies produce and distribute these products to pest control companies, retail stores, and other businesses.

 The pest control industry is a rapidly growing one, with new products and technologies being developed to meet the needs of homeowners and businesses alike. Pest Control Manufacturing companies are at the forefront of this growth, as they are responsible for creating and distributing the products necessary to eliminate or prevent pests from entering our homes and businesses.

 Pest Control Manufacturing companies are responsible for researching and developing new products, testing them for safety and efficacy, and then producing and distributing them in a wide range of formats.

 They must also ensure that their products meet all applicable safety regulations and standards. In addition, they must often work with pest control companies and other businesses to ensure that their products are used correctly and effectively.

 Pest Control Manufacturing companies are a vital part of the pest control industry, as their products provide the necessary tools to effectively eliminate and prevent pests from entering our homes and businesses. Without these products, pest control companies would not be able to do their job effectively. As such, these companies are essential to the success of the pest control industry.
