Cincinnati, OH (PRWEB) April 29, 2012

Bed bugs are some of the worst pests to exterminate. However, a recent news from dnainfo.com said that New York was winning the war against the blood-sucking pests. And in its latest post, BedBugBully.com pointed out the reason why their widespread slowed down. Additionally, the website advised to kill bed bugs naturally for the public to protective themselves from the pests safely.

According to the report, the waning of the bed bug epidemic in the city started in 2011. The bed-bug-related complaints in Manhattan particularly numbered from 2,649 in 2010 to 2,361 in 2011. That's about 11 percent decrease in bed bug cases.

The city's Department of Housing Preservation and Development also recorded a drop in called-in bed bug violations said the report. In 2010, the department issued 846 violations in Manhattan. That dropped to 649 in 2011.

However, despite the decreased in the number of bed bug cases and the eased frenzy about the pests, the city hiked up efforts to spread awareness about bed bugs, added the report. As said by Eric Bederman, spokesperson of Health Preservation and Development Department, that's the best weapon to prevent their spread.

Below is part of the post 'Bed Bug Cases in New York Decreases' by BedBugBully.com.

For sometime now, bed bugs have captured the attention of the public though not in a good way. And with the many unpleasant things that are linked to them, panic goes with their presence. Actually, even in their absence.

It was in 1940s when bed bugs were thought eradicated. After some 60 years of hiatus though, they were back and causing havoc again. And man, do they do it fast and smooth. But along with that came a lot of questions about bed bugs.

While others say that the waning of panic over bed bugs is because people now know that they are not much of a threat as they were made out be, BedBugBully.com believed that's not it. It reckoned that the frenzy eased off mainly because the public is now more aware about the pests and how to get rid of them effectively.

Pests appearing due to mild winter

Posted on April 30, 2012 by admin Click Here For Article

DALLAS, April 29 (UPI) -- In the past 12 months, 84 percent of America's homeowners experienced a pest problem -- nearly half were invaded by ants, a U.S. survey indicated.

The survey, for HomeTeam Pest Defense, of 1,319 U.S. adults also found in the past year 43 percent had to deal with spiders, 37 percent flies, 34 percent mosquitoes, 30 percent mice and 29 percent wasps.

"Pests have appeared earlier than usual this year due to warm winter, early spring and recent heavy rains," Russ Horton, national technical director for HomeTeam Pest Defense, said in a statement. "We have already seen termite swarms in Texas, Georgia and Florida, odorous house ants in the Mid-Atlantic and scorpions in Arizona."

Additionally, 80 percent of homeowners are concerned about pests termites, cockroaches, rats, bed bugs and mice in the home. Thirteen percent said they actually experienced termites in the last 12 months, 22 percent of homeowners experienced structural damage to their home from a pest problem.

To help prevent pest problems, Horton suggested:

-- Seal cracks and small openings around doors, windows, garage doors and utility entry points.

-- Get rid of standing water around the home.

-- Cut back tree branches and bushes, keeping them away from the side of the house and roof.

-- Install or repair screens on windows and doors.

-- Fix dripping taps and leaking pipes to remove the water and humidity that some pests need to survive.
