The Amazing Bed Bug

Bed bug infestations have been called the perfect storm. I find this problem frustrating and fascinating at the same time. It amazes me that the roach is supposed to be able to survive a nuclear bomb, yet we can eliminate a roach infestation with a tube of caulk bait, and a bed bug infestation costs thousands of dollars in either chemical or heat treatments. Here is a quick fact for you, a single female bed bug, after mating just once, can continue to produce eggs the rest of her life without another mating. All that little bugger needs are meals. No wonder they are such an amazing bug.

There is a new product called "The Bed Bug Gutter" It is a pitfall trap system that goes along walls, for difficult cases when the infestation has spread into the walls. It is also great for platform beds. Check it out at bedbuggutter.com
