I have also tried to sanitise the entire matress & springbox by gently waxing all the spring box so that any invisible eggs or little ones are plucked out from your matress and box spring on the surface.<br /><br />3.) <br />Use steam Iron to iron your matress and box spring (after you have waxed the matress and box spring with tape. excercise caution when you do this. Then put both items in encasements.<br /><br />4.) use pillow encacements.<br /><br />5.)Vaccum your entire home carpet and corners with the vaccume attachments given.<br /><br />6.) if you have super steamer vaccum use it to sanitise your carpet (I am yet to find this)<br /><br />7.) clean all shelfs.<br /><br />8.) Use dryer in FULL HOT setting to clean your clothes just to kill the bugs in case they exist there<br /><br />9) Spot heating of 120F also helps in sanitising your small wooden furniture. Ensure care when you do this. Probably some where outside.<br /><br />10) properly bin your infected stuff if you cant sanitise it. One needs to be unattached to the materialistic things in this world once these aliens attack <br /><br />11.) thoroughly vaccume your entire home every 2 days entire surface and corners need to be covered. do this religiously<br /><br />12.) Persistance pays off. This is a long drawn battle and we must win.<br /><br />14) I have also tried to use the summer heat to my advantage by storing all the sealed sanitised stuff in my car cabin and boot where the summer heat of 80F makes the internal temperature of closed car to 120F plus <br /><br />I did all this and found that I have to some extent contained the blowout of infestation but i think I did it just in time or else i would have ended up with thousands of these in my home.<br /><br />I will keep you posted on my progress and i make.<br /><br />Tango the IndianAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35619182.post-72920272570256225702010-06-24T18:57:21.685-05:002010-06-24T18:57:21.685-05:00I have written a similar article from the perspect...I have written a similar article from the perspective of what it would appear like for the "Blood Buffet" (you) from the first to the 30th day of infestation from one bedbug couple. It starts with one or two bites (the adult needs only 1 meal every ten days) that come, irritate and go away over the course of one week, and you may even have already disregarded it as an allergy to something. By the eleventh day the four eggs the mom laid on day one hatch and the nymphs and the mom herself partake of the blood buffet. And the Next day the next 4 nymphs and so on for the next ten days so that by day twenty you have about (considering 3 bites each) 60 or more itchy spots in various stages of healing. I will be publishing the article shortly. I needed an interval stat for how often nymphs need a blood meal which is how I found your blog.

Even if you cut all numbers by 75% the message is clear: find and treat your bed bug problem as soon as possible. The faster you detect a problem, the quicker you stop the growth.<br /><br />John<br />Certified K9 Handler<br />www.uniteddetection.comuniteddetection.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00035946451985221456noreply@blogger.com
