Bed Bugs and Chemical Pesticides = Failure
Plenty of information is being printed and aired about bed bugs and the epidemic spreading like wildfire across the country.
Articles from newspapers, periodicals, scientific journals and television segments are all chiming in on this national scourge and they pretty much follow the same format using a variety of ways to state the following: 1).
Bed bugs exist.
This is supported by stats, gruesome details or experiences, quotes from experts, etc.
2).
List of supposed actions to deal with them - none of which are solutions.
Seriously, vacuuming? Great.
So here we have a huge, grotesque problem and well, good luck with that.
Every so often, you get real information such as an article by University of Massachusetts Amherst dated January 8, 2009 and posted on PhysOrg.
com that states bed bugs are resistant to the very pesticides used to kill them.

" How convenient.
Based on the article above, perhaps this message means you should hire a professional to use synthetic poisons that don't work so you can then re-hire them to use other synthetic poisons that don't work.
These same industry experts immediately scoff at or ridicule alternative or natural solutions and present them as 'Snake Oil' or the businesses as 'unscrupulous vultures preying on the woes of others'.
Again, how convenient.
So what are legitimate options? First and foremost, personal responsibility is key.

These efforts are about 90% effective in preventing bed bugs but nothing is foolproof.
In case the unfortunate happens and you discover them, your job now is to get educated on all the natural, safe, and green pest control options available to you.
