Center for Disease Control (CDC) Recommends Heat in War on Bed Bugs

With CDC reports showing chemical bed bug treatments are causing human illness, even death, the ThermaPure Heat Process Co-invented by David Hedman is gaining traction in the war on bed bugs.

(PRWEB) March 08, 2012

Is a chemical war really the best choice when it is proving increasingly less effective and when non-chemical, heat treatments like structural pasteurization co-invented by David Hedman in the patented ThermaPure Heat Process are recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and are readily available to mitigate these concerns?

Chemical pesticides historically the first choice in killing bed bugs are increasingly cited as the cause of illness to occupants/residents and pest control applicators.

According to the Sept. 23, 2011 edition of the CDC and Prevention Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (volume 60, No. 37), acute bed bug pesticide-related illnesses have been reported in at least seven states with one fatality reported due to pesticide poisoning.

But those made ill by pesticides in the CDC report are likely just a fraction of those that are ultimately affected by exposure to these chemicals. Many may overlook minor symptoms and often exposure to chemicals can be cumulative or have an extended latency period with symptoms exhibiting years, even decades later.

Bed bug pesticides are toxic. While commonly used pyrethrins are only slightly acutely toxic, they are a sensitizer/irritant that is considered to cause cancer. Permethrin is moderately acutely toxic, possibly cancer-causing, and can cause endocrine disruption. Propoxur, which is not registered by the EPA for bed bug control but has been used illegally by some pest control companies, is highly toxic and probably cancer-causing, with reproductive effects, neurotoxicity, and kidney/liver damage.

According to the CDC report, pesticide-related illnesses have been caused after chemical treatments conducted by both individual consumers and professional pest management companies.

Children, in particular, are at risk. They face the highest pesticide exposure risk since they tend to sit, crawl or roll on the ground, near application sites where pesticide vapors and residues may settle.

Also troubling is the CDCs evidence that pesticide-resistant bed bugs are on the rise and have been confirmed in at least five states, including California, Florida, Kentucky, Ohio and Virginia.

Motel 6 in Redding California was reportedly infested by bed bugs. To help its owner and the many other bed bug sufferers, BedBugControl911.com suggested the use of non-toxic Bed Bug Bully.

(PRWEB) March 08, 2012

Shasta County Environmental Health Division checked the motel and found out that eleven of its rooms were infested. The affected rooms were blocked off and professionally treated.

When asked about bed bugs, Cindy Lakman, the county's public health nurse said, ...Lots of times, they come from other hotels, other places and they hitch a ride in your luggage. Most people who get bitten by bed bugs don't know they've been bitten; they don't have any welts."

To help hotel owners and other bed bug sufferers solve their bed bug problems, BedBugControl911.com advised the use of a newly developed bed bug solution. Called as Bed Bug Bully, the product offers a non-toxic way of getting rid of the pests. And as a green bed bug control aid, many are impressed with the way it works.

Made from 100 percent natural ingredients, Bed Bug Bully had been a big help to those who suffered from bed bug infestation without requiring evacuation. With its effectiveness and greenness, it makes an effective and affordable help in getting rid of bed bugs yourself.

For bed bug victims to see how effective and eco-friendly the product is, the site is giving out free samples of it.
