Feedback
Understand that the bedbugs started in the house, I could only after going to a doctor. It was he who determined that the cause of unpleasant itch is the bites of parasites. That's when my husband bought Kombat traps, as the safest means of struggle. Insects become smaller, but get rid of bedbugs completely still failed. Apparently for a large accumulation of insects is not the most suitable option.

Feedback
Sticky bedbug traps were laid out all over the house, which even sometimes came across themselves. New sticking parasites were found almost every day, but bites on the body continued to appear. Therefore, to use some traps in the fight against bedbugs is inefficient, and as an aid, it is very good.

Independent manufacture of bed bug traps
You can make traps for bedbugs with your own hands, for this it is enough to use improvised means:
- So an analogue of adhesive tape can be double-sided tape, which pasted the inner walls of the furniture. It is important to do so in order to exclude the possibility of foreign objects touching the adhesive surface. This will help achieve a greater effect.
- Sticky sheets can be replaced with water tanks. How to make a trap for bedbugs on this principle, but it is very simple. It is enough to take a deep bowl and fill it with water, then put a glass on the leg of the bed and place it in a vessel filled with liquid. Such designs are installed under all the legs of the bed. To sleep for several days, it is better to use a different bed.
As a result, starved bugs will be forced to go in search of another source of food. Once in the water, imminent death awaits them. Some craftsmen replace water with a mixture of vegetable oil and powdered sugar.
- Similar to the Bed Bug Beacon device, the operating principle has a bed bug with yeast or talc. To do this, use a vessel with a gas, the smell of which attracts insects. Parasites oriented on it fall through the hole into the inside of the container, but talc does not give them to get back.A great bait for house bugs is a yeast dough, because it is the one that produces the favorite gas of pests.
Many people wonder if vanillin serves as bait. Among the huge variety folk remedies for bedbugs This odorous powder can work wonders. Vanilla has excellent repellent properties - its smell is very do not like bugs. Therefore, it is enough to mix vanillin with baking soda and sprinkle the bed around the perimeter with the mixture so that the parasites do not bother while sleeping.
Has similar properties sagebrush, lavender, rosemary, tansy and tea tree. Of chemical means you can use ammonia, ammonia, kerosene or turpentine.
Feedback
Finding bedbugs in the apartment, I decided to use folk remedies and self-made traps in the fight against parasites. Going to bed, laid out and wormwood, and scotch, and vanilla with soda. To say that there was an effect, I can not. If all this helps, it is visible only in the first stages of the infection of the premises. When there are a lot of insects - I think the use of these tools is a waste of time.

Traps for bedbugs will help reduce the number of parasites, but they are still not able to clean the room completely from parasites, so for a full disinsection it is necessary to use effective chemicals.
