"Green" Way to Get Rid of Pesky Brown Bugs

Posted on May 9, 2012 by admin Click Here For Article

It's a "green' way to get rid of some pesky brown bugs.

Pest exterminators in Minot have said that bed bugs are on the rise across North Dakota.

Therma Pure Heat is afairly new technology to the Dakotas.

The patented idea of structural pasteurization uses heat instead of chemicals to kill off bugs and bacteria.

"We're seeing a proliferation of bed bugs now, throughout the United States, some cities have declared emergencies now because of this bed bug problem and if we don't have bedbugs here, we're soon to see them, and so this is a very valuable technology, CDC has spoken very highly about use of Heat now to kill these insects, rather than waiting often weeks with chemicals, the technology can be used in a day." says David Hedman/Therma Pure Heat President/CEO.

He says the Therma Pure Heat product can also be used in flooded structures to dry out the home and kill any mold.

Councillor seeks to restore program cuts with new-found surplus

Posted on May 9, 2012 by toronto Click Here For Article

KELLY GRANT City hall bureau chief Globe and Mail Update Published Monday, May. 07, 2012 4:59PM EDT Last updated Monday, May. 07, 2012 5:29PM EDT

Toronto council appears poised to undo the last of its controversial 2012 spending cuts, despite the budget committees opposition to temporarily restoring funding to the High Park Zoo, Far Enough Farm and a hardship fund for the citys neediest.

Theres going to be a floor fight on council on this item, Councillor James Pasternak said. Were going to move it straight up there and that way all 44 councillors and the mayor have a say in whats important to Torontonians. I think the most important thing is we have to cut through a lot of the histrionics of financial despair that were plaguing the budgetary process into the fall and early 2012.

The North York councillor and newest member of the budget committee on Monday proposed using more than $1.7-million of the $292-million 2011 surplus as a short-term rescue fund for a slew of programs left on life support after the January budget vote.

He also moved a motion asking that $258,000 of the solid waste departments $37-million 2011 surplus be dedicated to waiving a contentious new waste fee for charities.

The budget committee rejected Mr. Pasternaks proposals, most by votes of 3-2, with Councillors Peter Milczyn, John Parker and Doug Ford voting against, and Chin Lee voting with Mr. Pasternak.

The committee endorsed a separate motion from Mr. Lee allocating $180,000 of the surplus to extreme cleaning for bed bugs, provided the province kicks in $500,000 in 2012 for bed bug eradication.

Despite the thumbs down at budget committee, council will have a final say in June.

Budget Chief Mike Del Grande said he was frustrated a member of his own budget committee tried to revisit the 2012 budget months after it was settled.

My feeling is the budget is the budget. You cant keep re-opening it. Its closed.

FOX19 Investigates: Secret bed bug dangers

Posted on May 9, 2012 by admin Click Here For Article

CINCINNATI, OH (FOX19) -

Despite their best efforts, some people in Cincinnati are bringing home bed bugs in some creepy and unexpected ways, FOX19 News has learned.

Over the past month, we have been talking with bed bug experts, business owners --- and you --- about what you're seeing.

What may get you scratching involuntarily are the stories about the places you'd never expect to catch bed bugs.

FOX19 viewer Kevin, writing on the station's Facebook page, says he got them after renting a moving truck.

"It's the only place that it could have been," he said, "as the place I moved from did not have them and my new home did not have them to start."

We've heard similar stories, too. The problem is some rental companies don't properly inspect or clean their trucks after a family has turned-in the one they rented. So if they had bed bugs they're passed along to the next family that rents the truck.

FOX19 visited a large moving company in our area to see how their employees try to prevent carrying bed bugs from house to house. You'll see that part of the story Wednesday night at 10 o'clock.

We'll also meet a man who got bed bugs after hip replacement surgery. One of the medical devices he rented was infested with them. He has pictures of the bite marks to prove it.

Tune in Wednesday night at 10:00 p.m. to FOX19.
