How to get rid of bugs and cockroaches

Of all synanthropic insects in Moscow, bugs and cockroaches most of all annoy a person. They get along well in the same apartment, as their power sources are different. Combines parasites with the difficulty of excretion and rapid adaptation to chemical components. When choosing the wrong strategy, the destruction of bugs and cockroaches can drag on for several months. Therefore, to solve the problem in a matter of hours, days, people turn to sanitary services.

Benefits of contacting health services

When bedbugs and cockroaches wound up in the apartment at the same time, do not flatter yourself that it will be possible to destroy them with the same means. Despite the fact that the lifestyle of nocturnal pests is mainly nocturnal, the way of eating is different. Effective products for home use - boric acid, gels, lures, traps will affect cockroaches, but are absolutely useless to get rid of bedbugs.

Blood-sucking parasites in both the adult and the larval state feed on blood. Cockroaches prefer organic food. Prussians in the absence of food supply can pay attention to bedbug eggs. But given their different habitats in the apartment, one does not have to hope for the quick destruction of offspring. It is also important that cockroaches for about 40 days can do without food at all. A more significant role for their vital functions is played by water.

On a note!

Adults bed bugs and larvae in the absence of food, they can fall into a state similar to suspended animation. They can stay in it for up to a year.

The most reliable and effective way to get rid of bugs and cockroaches is the use of insecticides. Given the huge range of chemicals, the average consumer will take a lot of time just to study their effects, effectiveness, reviews. By purchasing insecticides to kill bugs and cockroaches, there is no guarantee that they will have the desired effect. Self-testing of drugs is comparable to a lottery.

The cost of professional parasite control products is several times higher than the price of household chemicals. Therefore, disinfestation carried out by sanitary workers in this case will cost almost the same amount as the purchase of expensive insecticides.

Feedback

When I tried get rid of cockroaches in the apartment, tried to display them by all available means: gel, Dichlorvos, boric acid. They disappeared for a short time, and then returned again. With the advent of bedbugs, their hands dropped. I went to the sanitary service, did hot mist treatment. Now I live and I can’t get enough of it - not a single creeping individual is observed in the apartment.

Professional methods for controlling parasites

Destruction in Moscow is carried out by the same methods as in other cities. Previously, a specialist assesses the situation, reveals the degree, extent of infection of the apartment. After that, a method for eliminating bugs and cockroaches is determined.

The most common insect control methods:

  1. Hot fog. The procedure is carried out by means of a hot fog generator. In a matter of seconds, the working solution is heated in the unit above 50 ° C, the components are broken down into tiny particles and fill the space in the room like a cloud. The insecticidal mixture is in suspension for several hours. When settling on the surface, a thinnest film with a prolonged action is formed. Contact of an insect with it leads to the death of the parasite. Most of the population, including eggs, dies instantly. This type of treatment is used for heavily infected apartments, houses.

  2. Cold mist treatment has a lot to do with hot. The only difference is that the mixture with poison does not heat up, its temperature corresponds to the environment. The insecticidal cloud also hangs in the air for some time, penetrating into all microcracks, crevices, and shelters where pests hide. Then it envelops the surface, creating a protective and destroying barrier.
  3. Complex treatment of bugs and cockroaches through fine irrigation, a protective barrier and hot fog allows you to get rid of pests, mold, fungi, bacteria.

To destroy insects, pest controllers use drugs from different price categories. The budget option is domestic chemicals that have a specific smell.

On a note!

Premium funds are microencapsulated drugs. Due to the fact that all chemical components are placed in microcapsules, they do not exude flavors.

The use of such insecticides is possible even in apartments where allergy sufferers, children, pregnant women live.

Feedback

On a note!

When drawing up the contract, attention should be paid to the conditions of the guarantee. A number of firms charge a fee for it. Warranties may not apply if the ventilation openings are not protected by nets, if there are cracks in the walls. The difficult epidemiological situation and the processing of one room in the apartment also become a reason for refusal to conduct repeated free disinsection.
