New Jersey pest control professionals can attest to the fact that bed bug infestations are rampant throughout New Jersey was well every other parts of the United States. These nasty bloodsucking bugs have become a bit worse over the summertime months as unsuspecting travelers have taken their yearly vacations near and far and accidentally picked up the creepy crawlers in their travels along the way. Sadly, unless you are well-versed in bed bug education, you don’t stand a chance against picking up these nocturnal nibblers. Their tiny stature, ability to hide with ease, and propensity to hitchhike at any moment in time gives them the upper hand every day of the week.
Once a person is infested with a bed bug infestation, the first response to the creepy bugs is often…to panic! Who could blame anyone for panicking at the first sight of bloodsucking critters creeping into their bed at night to suck their blood? The next step folks often take is to try over-the-counter bed bug products that are offered from their hardware store. Use of these products will quickly determine a need for something stronger as many of these pesticides do not work on bed bugs and instead spread the infestation to other areas of the home causing the infestation to worsen.
Peoople have tried a variety of dangerous home remedied to try to rid their environments of bed bugs with no success. Alcohol, gasoline, illegally obtained DDT, and pesticides intended for used on the exterior of the home have been used by homeowners and by some uneducated pest control applicators to rid homes of bed bugs.
