In-Depth Guide Offers Help On What Chemical-Free Green Cleaning Systems Can Be Used For

Lake Forest, Illinois (PRWEB) October 05, 2012

According to 1-800-GO-VAPOR.com, with temperatures up to 260F steam vapor systems are ideal for cleaning and sanitizing tile floors, grout, kitchens and bathrooms, children's toys, workout rooms, auto interiors, scatter rugs, pet areas, and much more.

Use can even use steam vapor to kill dust mites and bed bugs on contact, remove allergens, kill bacteria, and remove mold and mildew, says V. K. Dunlop of 1-800-GO-VAPOR.com. And gently remove wrinkles from clothing.

Dunlop believes creating a safer and healthier environment is the key draw for most 1-800-GO-VAPOR.com customers.

Steam vapor systems use only a little tap water to clean and sanitize almost any surfacewithout chemicals.

Systems equipped with Thermo Accelerated Nano Crystal Sanitation, or TANCS, provide users with the ability to disinfect a surface at a level supported by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. TANCS is proprietary to Ladybug steam vapor sanitization systems.

Who of us doesnt know someone with cancer? asks Dunlop. Or a parent with a child diagnosed with autism? There is credible scientific evidence linking these health problems and others like heart disease and diabetes to some of the 82,000 chemicals available for use in the U.S., only 200 of which have been required to be tested for safety.

1-800-GO-VAPOR.coms website already includes a popular Quiz that tests consumers knowledge of cleaning. Now the site has a Vapor Learning Center to help shoppers understand what chemical-free steam vapor systems can be used for.

Bed bug complants at some UMd. buildings

Posted on October 4, 2012 by admin Click Here For Article

Bed bugs are a problem at this campus housing facility at University of Maryland. (WTOP/Darci Marchese)

Darci Marchese, wtop.com

WASHINGTON - Some area college students are dealing with an unwanted distraction: bed bugs.

Bed bugs are apparently invading some of the housing at the South Campus Commons Buildings at the University of Maryland in College Park.

Students living in building 7 received an email from Capstone On-Campus Management Wednesday night regarding the bed bugs.

It read, in part:

"It is true that we have had a small number of isolated cases of bed bugs reported to us so far this fall, and our maintenance staff and pest control experts have worked aggressively and collaboratively with affected residents to address these issues. If you have reason to suspect any type of pest control issue in your apartment, please submit an online work order at first sign of any potential problem so our maintenance staff can conduct a thorough inspection. We strongly rely on your cooperation in proactively educating our neighbors, hall mates, and apartment mates on methods of identification, prevention, and remediation. We also ask that you review the detailed information contained in the bed bug addendum of your lease."

A University of Maryland spokesman tells WTOP they are very concerned about the student's safety and are working closely with Capstone, who is overseeing the maintenance and extermination of the bugs.

Hotel Non-Toxic Bed Bug Help Becomes Cheaper; MyCleaningProducts Cuts its Bed Bug Bully Price by 10%

Posted on October 4, 2012 by Pest Controller Click Here For Article

MyCleaningProducts has reduced the price of its Bed Bug Bully by 10%. With that, the company said that hotel and homeowners can now make their rust treatment safer yet cheaper.

Cincinnati, OH (PRWEB) October 04, 2012

Get the 10% Discount. Order the Non-Toxic Bed Bug Bully Today

Small and sneaky as they are, bed bugs can actually infest any place. The fact that sanitation does not really trigger their infestation is one of those major things that allows that to happen. Yet, among the places that they could invade, homes and hotels are two of their favorite. The basic reason is that those two places keep them close to the main sources of their meal humans.

Actually, the said pests don't bring or transfer with them diseases. And so, they can't be called a serious threat to health. However, with their presence comes along numerous physical, financial and even psychological problems. And because of that, they are considered as a risk to a person's wellness.

In particular, bed bugs can cause social embarrassment as their bites can leave nasty marks to their victims. They also can cause financial problems as the bites could require medical treatment. Apart from that, the heavy infestation of them on a specific item also often requires a piece's replacement. And that adds more strain to person's budget. Additionally, because no one can really say when and where they will next attack, the pests also bring anxiety and paranoia to others.

To prevent all those negative effects of the pests, it is imperative for everybody to implement preventive steps. But the thing is, despite preventive measures, there is still a huge chance for bed bugs to show up in anybody's door. For that reason, MyCleaningProducts said that it is best for every home and hotel owner and manager to have a bed bug spray ready.

As it explained, having a bed bug product within reach will allow one to immediately implement a bed bug treatment. In return, that prevents the worse effects of the said pests.

Find the Best Bed Bug Spray and Keep Bed Bugs Away

Nonetheless, most of today's pesticides are made with strong chemical ingredients. Exposure to them, in any way, presents several health risks. But that is not the case with Bed Bug Bully, said MCP. As it is organic-based, it delivers a safe bed bug treatment. And that's without compromising the effectiveness that a bed bug product should possess, it assured consumers.

North Texas’ Bed Bug Infestation Growing At Alarming Rate

Posted on October 3, 2012 by admin Click Here For Article

DALLAS (CBSDFW.COM) For years, North Texas parents have put their children to bed saying Dont let the bed bugs bite. But that phrase, meant as a joke, has become a strange reality for many across the region.

Sandy Mayberry says her short home video taken at a recent camping trip proved to be scarier than any story she heard around the campfire.

After going to sleep, she felt something biting her.

They were bed bugs, and they were coming right out of her bunk bed. Bugs in your bed is pretty scary. When theyre in your pajamas, when theyre in your clothes, and theyre biting you, and you see the blood, and when youre smacking them, its just horrifying.

Mike Merchant is an entomologist at Texas A&Ms Agrilife Research & Extension Center in North Dallas, where he studies bed bugs. They feed on human blood. Theyve figured out a strategy where they can live places near where people sleep, and get their meals at night.

Despite his knowledge of bed bugs, he says a family member recently had a run-in with bed bugs. I think whats surprising is that even people that know a little about bed bugs, most of us dont really think its going to happen to us Its not a sanitation-related pest. You can live in the cleanest house and get a bed infestation.

In his relatives case, they had as many as 300 bed bugs on their mattress, sheets, and even on the wood below the mattress.

Merchant has a dozen of his own bed bugs he keeps at his lab. When the critters get hungry, he even willingly becomes their meal ticket. Its not the most pleasant thing in the world, but for science and education. Im willing to do it.

At the lab, theyre trying to find more effective ways to make bed bugs a thing of the past. They thought they eradicated the insects 50 years ago.

But it turns out more and more people here in North Texas are having a horrifying experience with bed bugs.
