While, on one hand, bed bugs are very easy to bring into your home without you realizing it, on the other hand, they could be a very difficult creature to get rid of; as not only are they hard to find, but they could also pose resistance to some insecticides.

How to Detect Bed Bugs in Your Home:
Bed bugs are dark yellow, brown, or red-coloured tiny insects. They are found in tiny cracks and hidden places around the home or office, mainly on Mattresses, Bed frames, Furniture, Loose wallpapers, Clothing, Wardrobes, Electrical sockets and fittings, Cabinets, and others.

Early Signs of Bed Bugs in Your Home:
One of the early signs of bed bugs in your home is the appearance of bites on your body after waking up. The other possible signs include

-Dark stains or Blood spots on your bedding which could have resulted from bed bug bites or squashed ones
-Bed bugs poo or Small Dark spots on furniture, bedding, wallpapers, and walkways. Each excretion is about 0.5 to 1.0mm
-Bites on your skin (neck, face arms, leg, and general body) when you are asleep, with the appearance of itchy red or purple spots.
-Seeing Live insects or Adult Bed Bugs in your home. The average adult bed bug is about 5mm long.

Bed Bug Bites and Treatment.
If you have noticed any of the above signs, the following remedies are suggested

-Make sure to keep the affected area clean.
-Apply anti-inflammatory oil such as Basil or Lavender on the affected areas.
-If the bite spot feels itchy and you can’t resist scratching, you can place a clean damp cloth to help with the itching.
-Seek immediate medical attention at your pharmacy or hospital.

I don't currently sitback in TRAINS anymore, especially the central Line Train, it cuts across Main Zone (Zone 1).
Cos if one follows u home, forget that whole neighborhood

.

I'd rather have mosquitoes than bedbugs.those things are crazy

Move out the entire furniture and clothings and burn them all

Bugs are terrible. They spread like lice.

Who is interested in the local remedy' that works fast?

What are the solutions to eradicate bedbugs?

Omo I'm not risking it. The moment I see bedbugs, I moove.

Omo. This thing almost turn me to mad person that year for uni. Unlike mosquitoes, these things will bite you as if what they're looking for is inside your bone. After dem deal with me ehn, to dey read for night no dey hard me again...just thinking about it is traumatizing

Abeg...forget all these story.

The surest way to banish bed bugs forever after you have really been dealt with...I meant dealt with. Like one fat one coming out of your collar in a public bus to the full glare of everyone. That type of dealt with...

So, the only solution is...buy a new cloth. Come into your old house. Pull off your old cloth. Put on the new one and leave your house to another prepared one. Don't take anything. I repeat...no take anything.

Those idiots will follow you everywhere.

A word they say...

Ok

DRESS FORCE 🔥🔥🔥

They're a worldwide menace these days, I saw an interview where it had infested a luxury yatch 😂😂.

People also need to be aware that bed bug is not a sign of bad hygiene too.

There are here to stay, eradication is far from it. Visit France and be sure they're following you home

Bed bug spread faster than cockroaches. Very irritating creatures.

Meanwhile
I'm an experience driver in Lagos. I need a car to drive on uber/bolt for weekly remittance.
Please if you have a car for me, quote me or check contact on my profile.

The second the most hated insect in Nigeria.

Mosquito, the first.

You went to copy an oyinbo article. Refrigerate bedding for 4 days ? With which light 😒

The only permanent solution is to leave the house for 6months...if u come back dem go don die because na u dey feed them...


On my part I use regular wash of clothes to kill them.. With washing machine..

Burn the bed

Very bad and stubborn pest to get rid of. Multiplies very fast.

Very long post that dances around the reader without actually pinpointing the solution as per the topic.

HELLO NAIRALANDERS HERE IS THE SOLUTION FOR BEDBUGS.

1. Take note of where the bedbugs have chosen as their base. Maybe bed or sofa.

2. Take your mattress and sofas outside in the hot sun.

3. Get a bucket you hardly use, at least not for drinking water. fill the bucket with water.

4. Get a brand new bottle of SNIPER and turn it into the bucket of water.

5. Get your gloves or anything to cover your hand.

6. Get a neat rag.

7. dip that rag into the bucket. Use that SNIPER WATER to mop the mattress till every surface and corner is soaked. Do the same for all your pillows and Sofas.

8. Leave them in the sun to dry.

9. While all those stuff are still out in the sun, go back in your house and put half bottle of SNIPER in half bucket of water. Use this water to clean your wardrobe and other furniture. Use the rest of the water to mop the house.

NOTE: this best works during dry season for fast drying because rain fit mess you up.

I am furniture boss and home decor boss and this is how I wipe out bedbugs for my customers.

😂😂😂, Even the heating part. Na hand I go take wash cloth inside 50c 😂

The cheap and super effective remedy is Sniper. It works like a gem. It is what the doctor ordered.

I am talking from experience. You can even dilute Sniper a little. Pour around the affected areas.

Funny thing is that I think the smell alone kills. It was complete and total annihilation.

My lost became totally free of it.

Good thing is that Sniper is cheap. Don't just drink it.

Take this

You go Thank me tomorrow
