Hello, welcome to easy steps to ridding bed bugs.
Before we start anything I'd like to share with you a bit of information about bed bugs.
The bed bug start off as small creatures, so small that they cannot be seen with the naked eye. These little creatures grow off eating your blood, they can withstand many temperatures but none too cold and none too hot. They are very skinny and strong for their size which allows them to crawl throughout many small cracks in our homes. They are not the fastest insects but are very hard to find. If you start seeing them walk around your home during broad day or while you have lights on in the home then you have a great infestation. Usually they stay in one spot of the home and travel for food when they need to. They can live for months with ought any food. The most common place for them to be is inside the bed, hence "Bed Bugs". If anywhere else, they like to hide in small dark cracks.
About the bites, when a bed bug bites you, it doesn't appear right away. It could take as long as 9 weeks, usually about 5 minutes though. Some people do not feel the bites, some do. But they always leave marks. Once I teach you how to get rid of the bites, some might still appear but that's because they were previous. The bed bug doesn't transfer any diseases and not much happens when they bite you, besides a small swelling near the bite and a lot of uncomfortable itchiness. Good ways to get the bites itchiness to go away is to eat some garlic, just a bit.. It helps a lot, and use rubbing alcohol on the bitten parts. Now let's get down to business.
There are many ways to get rid of bed bugs, you have to commit to it though. Usually they would be in your room so first thing is, clean your room. If it's already clean, good job 🙂 If not, stop being lazy, do it once 🙂 You'll be happy in the end.
If your under a really warm climate and its hot near your area, clean your room and put your mattress and comforters and such outside, let the heat kill them. If you don't want to move it outside, open the window, make sure the light is hitting them, other than that, get some insect repellent, preferably gardening repellent, it's a liquid, just spray it around your home, or let it leak around your home, put it on your bed and stuff, make sure you get rid of the sheets on your bed first. Then spray it good, get it all over, make sure your windows open. Leave the room for about 12 hours. When you come back it will have a bid of an odour but that's okay.
Now if you live in a cold climate area, what you need to do is open your window, just open it. No big deal but make sure all the electronics you have are out of the area, computers, cell phones... Blah, because the cold could ruin them, 🙂 Happened to my computer, I left my window open to get rid of the bugs while I had the home pest control sprayed throughout my room and my computer crashed, I like my new one better anyways :). Now make sure you sprayed the room well.
If you see that the bugs went away, congratulations. If they come back in a few weeks that means that the bugs are also somewhere else in your room, at this point you can call an exterminator.. Or... You can do-it-yourself. It's a lot cheaper and not that hard, the thing about gardening pest control is that the bugs like the smell, they go to it, and it kills them very fast. So spray it around your home, but leave a window open or something, because the smell of that could knock you out, make you dizzy. Worst of all, diarrhoea. Well that concludes my guide, good luck all of you 🙂
