There are many very good web sites that all provide similar information about the basics of bed bugs. A few of these are linked throughout this site. This technical education web site differs in that it is designed to provide tools for those charged with educating others about bed bugs.

It includes technical resources such as power point presentations, printable brochures/handouts that can be custom designed for specific audiences, color photographs, specific question/answer write-ups, a 20 minute general video introduction to the bed bug problem as well as a series of small video (youtube type) clips that address specific techniques or questions about bed bug management. It also features an interactive video game that teaches about bed bug inspection, and is of particular interest to younger audiences. Finally, this site advertises a bed bug exhibit that can be taken to large conferences or other educational venues to provide general awareness information about bed bugs.

Purdue University Extension is pleased to provide these materials at no cost to you in an effort to increase the general awareness of the bed bug problem and to assist in the education of our citizens.

Also linked to this site are other resources, checklists, web sites and even a search program for bed bug products and services that have been developed elsewhere. Together, these are all provided as a buffet for educators teaching bed bug awareness and management to nearly any clientele group.

Natural Remedies for Bed Bugs

Posted on February 6, 2015 by admin Click Here For Article

There some natural remedies for bed bugs that do work- and then theres some that dont. Its important to learn the differences between the two before trying anything.

Its rumored that checking into a five-star hotel would guarantee bed bug protection. This, however, isnt the case. Five-star hotels arent necessary safe from bed bugs either. So make sure your cautious even when going to a hotel- keep your clothing sealed and inspect the bedding before you make it your own.

Some people have been told that carrying lavender oil spray at all times is another way to keep the bed bugs away. But this too is just a rumor. While they may not like the spray, it wont get rid of them- if theyre really hungry, theyll find a way to overcome it. Dont go out and buy any scented type of spray you can find- ultimately, its just a waste of money. The one good thing about lavender spray, however, is if you spray some onto your pillow, it can help make falling asleep a lot easier. With this spray, you wont have as many sleepless nights.

Bed bugs will often fall victim to intense heat. However, they can even survive in heat for long periods of time, so if you are thinking about putting any infected clothing and bedding into dryers, make sure you keep it there for an extended amount of time.

There are some natural methods that do work. Both freezing and using steam or heat will work. Just make sure to expose the bugs to these temperatures for a while to guarantee effectiveness.

Diatomaceous earth is another remedy that works. This powder is known to kill bugs, but shouldnt be used for serious infestations. It would still be best to consult with an exterminator before using this option.

Different stages of bed bugs (1/16 inch to 1/4 inch in size) and fecal spots

Bed bugs on a backpack

This factsheet provides some specific steps that you can use to prevent hitchhiking bed bugs from infesting your home. There is nothing magic about the way these pests initiate an infestation. They are simply parasites that look to resting persons or animals for a meal and, once obtaining this meal, they travel back to a place of hiding.

The thing that makes bed bugs so challenging for detection and control is they have excellent abilities to squeeze into cracks and crevices and will often go unnoticed by the casual observer.

The majority of bugs will cluster around areas where people will rest, but a few of them will move off to hide in more remote areas. They shun light and if they are disturbed or if they suddenly feel exposed, they will attempt to move to quieter (and more remote) areas. It is this cryptic behavior that creates the challenge to dis-infesting articles that have been in areas of bed bug activity and cause the impression that they have special abilities that we cannot contend with.

The following are questions that are commonly asked by travelers and the recommendations you can use to prevent transport of bed bugs from an infested site.

Bed bugs are oval, flattened, brown, and wingless insects approximately 1/4" to 3/8" long (5-9 mm). They are similar in appearance to a wood tick. After the bug has taken a blood meal, its color will change from brown to purplish-red. Also after feeding, it is larger and more cigar-shaped making it appear like a different insect. Young bed bugs are much smaller (1/16 or 1.6 mm when they first hatch) and nearly colorless except after feeding, but resemble the adult in general shape. You may also find cast skins, which are empty shells of bugs as they grow from one stage to the next. After a blood meal, bed bugs deposit fecal spots (composed of digested blood) in areas adjacent to the feeding site or back at their hiding places.

You can only confirm that bed bugs are present by carefully inspecting each item. Pay attention to cracks, crevices, seams, and folds of material. Remember that bed bugs can be 1/16" to 1/4" and young, unfed bugs may be mostly translucent (see pictures). If you find bugs, then you have to be careful in containing the infestation. If you do not find bugs, but still suspect there may be an infestation, the steps mentioned below will provide peace-of-mind and ensure that you do not bring an infestation home.
