HOWE ROOM: Zinck takes deadly aim at pesky bed bugs

Posted on October 14, 2012 by admin Click Here For Article

MLAs see all manner of problems at their local offices, but they dont often require the Lice Squad.

Independent Trevor Zinck did, though. He ordered some of the Ontario pest control specialists clean, green, organic bug blaster to fend off bed bugs.

The Dartmouth North MLA said the parasitic insects have been a chronic problem in some of the old wood-framed public housing units in his constituency, and a few have ended up in his office aboard visiting constituents.

Last months expense report showed he spent $492.28 with the Lice Squad, buying what he described as a Febreze-type spray hes using in a regular preventive cleaning regimen.

Its quite effective, Zinck said of the enzyme-laden cleaner.

We asked people to bring them in in pill bottles. We sprayed them and its killed them on contact.

He said the office closed for a couple of days in the summer for a thorough cleaning, and he swapped out some furniture for government surplus items. The space has been bed bug-free since.

In a climate where federal government cuts and Employment Insurance changes are hitting home for Nova Scotians, it doesnt take much for Premier Darrell Dexter to riff on federal downloading.

He must have been primed last week, when asked about Ottawas pending withdrawal from covering a third of the cost of putting observers on fishing boats.

1-800-GO-VAPOR.com Announces Free 2-Day Express Shipping on Vapamore Primo Steam Vapor System

Posted on October 13, 2012 by Pest Controller Click Here For Article

Lake Forest, IL (PRWEB) October 13, 2012

A leading nationwide marketer of steam vapor sanitization systems announced today that the Vapamore Primo steam vapor system, which replaced the Vapamore MR-100 steam vapor system, is available in October for 2-day express delivery Monday through Friday within the contiguous U.S. The Primo is proven to instantly eliminate bed bugs from clothing, bedding, furniture and structural areas like baseboardswithout the use of toxic chemicals.

Weve checked out nearly every steam vapor system on the market and we only market the ones that have passed our toughest tests, says V.K. Dunlop of 1-800-GO-VAPOR.com. With an entry-level price but excellent features, the smart Vapamore Primo is ideal for killing bed bugs while staying within your budget.

The bed bug crisis continues. The bloodsucking pests today are everywherefrom hotels and movie theaters to department stores and posh homes.

People are in panic over bed bugs and are turning to dangerous, do-it-yourself chemical eradication methods, says Dunlop.

But in addition to being dangerous to your health, chemicals that can eliminate bed bug infestations are rare and generally ineffective, as bed bugs have developed resistance to chemicals that are being used against them. Another problem is that chemicals cant reach bed bugs in every nook and cranny where they hide. A highly toxic chemical called propoxur does work better than most, but the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has banned the chemical for home use because of the damage it can cause to the nervous system of children.

Fortunately people dont have to douse their homes in chemicals, says Dunlop. The Vapamore Primo uses heated steam vapor instead of chemicals to instantly kill bed bugs and the eggs they leave behind. And because vapor particles are so small, they can reach cracks and crevices chemicals cannot.

With an entry-level steamer like the Vapamore Primo, or a high-end model like the Ladybug 2150 steam vapor sanitization system, bed bugs have nowhere to hide and are a thing of the past. And because steam vapor systems kill bed bugs right away, they can be more economical than chemical alternatives that take several treatments.

You wont find anything else like the Vapamore Primo on the market today for $299, says Dunlop. Were pleased to offer delivery within 2 business days.

Located in Lake Forest, Illinois, 1-800-GO-VAPOR.com is moving fast to educate consumers and businesses that finally, there's a feasible, environmentally friendly alternative to chemicals.

Bedbugs’ toll is financial, physical, emotional

Posted on October 11, 2012 by admin Click Here For Article

By Jim Weiker

The Columbus Dispatch Thursday October 11, 2012 9:36 AM

This is a story that no one wanted to be part of. A story of exhaustion, expense and embarrassment.

A story of bedbugs.

The story includes Eric Hurd waking up in his North Side home to find the bugs crawling on him before pulling back the mattress cover and finding hundreds of the insects.

It includes Todd Perry becoming so covered in bedbug welts that he had to wear makeup to work to avoid alarming others. It includes Rosemarie Mitchell having to postpone back surgery twice, once after the hospital learned that her home had bedbugs and a second time because of infections from the welts.

It includes Rod Bodwalk painting the floors of his East Side apartment beige so he could better spot the bugs crossing the floor.

And it includes Mary Elizabeth Courtney sticking dozens of bugs to a piece of tape in an effort to convince her landlord that she still had a problem after fighting the relentless pests for eight months.

As members of the Central Ohio Bed Bug Task Force prepare for a public forum on the bugs this afternoon, the human toll can only be described as, in Courtneys words, a nightmare. Bedbugs can consume lives; cost thousands of dollars; require months of labor; and, long after theyre gone, exact psychological damage.

This infestation affected all areas of our lives, said Mitchell, who spent eight months ridding her East-moor home of the vermin.
