Why We Love Our Dogs

Posted on March 19, 2012 by Pest Controller Click Here For Article

When people hear that I spent more than a year wandering the aisles of Americas dog shows while working on a book about the culture, the first question they inevitably ask is: Why? Why do otherwise normal humans with decent jobs and sound minds spend all of their free time and much of their disposable income on what seems like such a frivolous pursuitprimping and preparing their dogs to be judged in the show ring?

Its really quite simple: because people really, really love dogsalmost as much as they love their children. Sometimes, even more.

That said, there are probably plenty of you who own dogs who still dont see how that explains the motivation to put them in dog shows. So let me put it to you this way: Do you adore your dog to the degree that you sometimes call yourself Mommy or Daddy? Do think he or she is the most beautiful and special creature there is and ever has been? Do you often brag about him or her to friends and family? Do you post adorable photos on Facebook? Well, this is exactly what we do with our children.

And its why people show dogs. Because while dog showing is ostensibly about breeding its the way the best and healthiest stock is identified its also about validation.

Just as parents want teachers to tell them their kid is the smartest and politest in class, dog owners want to hear people lauding their dogs beauty and obedience, and theres no better place to hear that than in the show ring. Which isnt to say that dog show participants need a ribbon to prove what they already know. If there are 3,000 dogs entered in a particular event, youll find 3,000 humans whod argue for hours about why their dog is best.

Its almost impossible not to feel that way. Because the bond between humans and dogs is more intense than our bond with any other species, and theres not even a close second.

Dogs were the first domesticated animals, the ones that made domestication of all others possible. Scientists cant seem to agree whether it was 10,000 or 15,000 or 100,000 years ago, but its inarguable that dogs evolved from wolves because of us. They were selected and honed to be our companions to help us hunt, to guard our homes, to look after our livestock and even our children and, over time, to do so many useful and wonderful things that it boggles the mind.

For all the talk about wheels and metal and gunpowder, we often overlook one very important tool that helped lead us out of the caves and into societies: our dogs.

We have dogs that serve in combat (famously assisting in the capture of Usama Bin Laden); dogs that detect bed bugs; dogs that defend sheep from wolves (and cattle from cheetahs), in the process protecting the wild animals too by keeping ranchers from shooting them; dog lifeguards; dogs that guide the blind and allow the disabled to live better lives; dogs that sniff out cancer and drugs and invasive species. And dogs that simply provide companionship, making millions of lives around the globe much, much happier.

There seems to be no job dogs were asked to do that they didnt figure out how to do capably, and if only they had thumbs wed probably have taught them to drive us around by now.

DIY bedbug removal

Dear Editor:

Re: Bedbug battle, Burnaby NOW, Aug. 28

I have fought bedbugs in both my house and in the apartment of a relative this year and disagree with some of the advice in your article. Bedbugs can absolutely be a do-it-yourself project using a search-and-destroy strategy.

If you have just a few bugs, they will mostly be on your bed. Take the bed apart, search all its surfaces and nooks and crannies. When you clear it, any bugs living elsewhere in the room or apartment will move in. If you just search your bed every couple of days and kill everything you find, eventually you will get them all.

If you have an infestation, there is some major cleaning to do, sorting and bagging of stuff and often discarding things like mattresses or box springs. But the basic principle remains the same: Attract them to where you sleep, and then search them out and kill them.

If you learn how to recognize eggs and baby bugs as well as adult bugs, the task will go faster. If you have no idea where to start looking, it can be a good idea to get a pest control officer in to help you get started. You might want to get a set of bedbug traps on the legs of your bed and zipped wraps for your mattress.

It may take as long as a couple of months to get every last bug, but you can do it. Keep track of your bites (if you show bites), and when you've gone two weeks bite-free, you are likely free and clear.

Bed Bugs Crawl Into Cleveland Water Division, BedBugControl911.com Suggests Pesticide Exempt Solution for Safe Treatment

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

Bed bugs were found in Cleveland's Water Division building. To help the department implement a safe treatment, BedBugControl911.com suggested the use of a pesticide free bed bug control solution.

(PRWEB) March 13, 2012

Based on the report from WTAM.com, a small number of bed bugs were found at the state's Department of Division of Water building located at 1201 Lakeside Avenue. Jason Woods, Chief of Public Affairs of the department, said that the number of the pests are not enough to call it an infestation.

Though the sighting of the pests did not halt the division's operation, extermination was still implemented in the building. A ten-day follow-up treatment was also scheduled.

Knowing how fast bed bugs spread and multiply, BedBugControl911.com commends the department's prompt reaction to the incident. However, the site believes that the elimination of bed bugs could have been easier and cheaper if a pesticide exempt bed bug spray was used instead.

Nonetheless, the website recommends that others should also implement immediate treatment after a bed bug sighting. Early detection of the pests must also be observed as it can save any bed bug sufferer from worse damages and bigger financial spending, it adds. And one of the ways to detect bed bugs early that it suggests is to observe pics of bed bugs for a fast and accurate identification of the pests.

So consumers can have a taste of the benefits of a pesticide exempt bed bug control solution, BedBugControl911.com is a giving out a free bed bug spray.

Connecticut Lawmakers' Bill Mandates Expensive Bed Bug Treatment, BedBugControl911.com Offers Less Costly Solution

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

A proposed bed bug bill focused on landlords and tenants was opposed in Connecticut due to its high-costing bed bug treatment requirement. To help the pests' victims cut down on expenses, BedBugControl911.com suggested that a pesticide exempt bed bug spray must be used.

Cincinnati, OH (PRWEB) March 12, 2012

According to the report, the bill mandates landlords to hire professional exterminators within ten days after knowing about the infestation. It's said that treatment could cost landlords $800 per unit. In case they choose to solve the problem themselves though but failed, the bill also requires them to lessen the tenants' rent and to pay for their temporary housing.

On the side of the tenants, the proposal orders them to implement the steps dictated by the certified bed bug exterminators hired by the landlords. If proven that they did not follow the instructions, the bill allows landlords to sue the tenants.

Though property owners and realtors agree with the proponents that something must be done with the problem about bed bugs, many of them think that the bill is of several loopholes. Others, like Connecticut Realtor Donna Karnes, even stated that it is biased against renters, ignoring owners of hotels and motels.

To help both landlords and tenants eliminate bed bugs without spending too much, BedBugControl911.com suggested the use of a pesticide exempt solution. The product is a big aid to get rid of bed bugs yourself effectively.

Already been proven effective by many, the product was a big help to eliminate bed bugs in Florida and in many other states. And because it is effective, safe and affordable, it is highly recommended by the site to anybody who is preparing for bed bug infestation or already suffering from the pests.

New Hanover Courthouse Denies Bed Bug Infestation, Still BedBugControl911.com Suggests the Purchase of Green Bed Bug …

Posted on March 11, 2012 by Pest Controller Click Here For Article

Bed bugs hit New Hanover County Courthouse in North Carolina. Though a judge denied the infestation, BedBugControl911.com still suggested that the property management get a bed bug spray for preparation.

Cincinnati, OH (PRWEB) March 11, 2012

According to the report, a court personnel noticed some bugs in the work area and immediately alarmed the property management. Contrary to reports though, it is said that the infestation is of carpet beetle and not of bed bugs.

Nonetheless, extermination was still implemented in the area. And as said by Judge J.H. Corpening, the process is much easier, that the courthouse was opened the next day. But while the court was closed down, the Superior Court was transferred to Historic Courthouse for the meantime. On the other hand, civil filings were processed at the Office of Juvenile Justice and the warrant service and magistrate at the New Hanover County Sheriff's Office.

Given that hundreds to thousands of people come and go in the courthouse though, it's not impossible that bed bugs will indeed infest the courthouse in the future. And because of that big possibility, BedBugControl911.com suggests that property management give out pics of bed bugs for the right identification of the pests. Also, it advises them to get a bed bug spray ready.

With a solution within reach, the site believes that anybody can control bed bugs more effectively. Among the many bed bug sprays though, BedBugControl911.com only recommends the use of a pesticide exempt solution. For the fast-spreading bed bugs in Florida, the product was a big help to the residents.

And for bed bug sufferers from across the United States to see for themselves how effective the product is, the site is giving out free samples of it.
