Use of essential oils

They do not tolerate essential oils. These substances have a rich strong odor, so they are no less effective than herbs. Therefore, they are also used to scare away bed bugs. Good in this case help essential oils:

• Lavender:
• Nettles;
• Tea tree
• Rosemary.

  

With their help, it is recommended to process surfaces, legs, head, head, bottom, foot of the bed and other furniture in the house. Oil can be dripped over the baseboards, and sprayed with a solution on the back of the picture and photographs hanging on the wall. Essential oils do not work on eggs.

Perfumes - its aroma is able to repel insects. This method, known for a very long time, helps to scare them away for a while.

Interesting fact. Perfumes were successfully used in France, Italy and other European countries. Before going to bed, nobles often took perfume baths, hoping that insects would leave their homes, as bedbugs do not like pungent odors.

How to scare away bugs

Among the great variety folk remedies, I want to pay special attention to soda and vanillin. Regular culinary vanilla mixed with soda can work wonders. This composition handle sofas, beds and animal hair, if they are in the house, it is a good enough repeller. No harm, but great benefit. Also, in the fight against bedbugs, salt can be used. After mixing 5 tablespoons with one tea vanilla, you should well sprinkle sofas, carpets, rugs, leave for 1-2 hours, after which they need to be vacuumed. The house will have a pleasant smell, but the parasites do not like it.

What smell are bedbugs afraid of?

Insects react to highly concentrated substances. If the concentrates are diluted, they only attract them. Among a wide variety of chemicals, there are agents that are more reliable and can really scare off bed bugs. These include:

• Ammonia. Insects are afraid of its concentrated smell. For preventive purposes, ammonia is diluted in water and the floor is washed with the resulting solution.
• Vinegar. It can be used in concentrated and diluted form, since it does not pose a danger to humans. Drip into the nests. Bed bugs cannot stand the smell and leave their shelter. Concentrated vinegar will be more effective. It is also good as a preventative. They treat those places where bed bugs can appear.
• Kerosene, whiteness, turpentine. They are pungent, have a pungent smell. They process furniture and places, where bed bugs can hide. The room must be ventilated after treatment.
• Ammonia. To get rid of bugs, you should place a container with ammonia solution in the room and leave it for 4 hours.It is advisable to leave home for this time.

Some people believe that alabaster is good in controlling bed bugs. However, it is not. For the bloodsucker to die, it is necessary that the alabaster fall into his stomach and freeze there. But he does not eat this remedy, so it is completely ineffective.

Temperature difference

Most bugs are afraid of temperature extremes. Favorable for their habitat is the plus temperature, reaching 20-30 ° C. Lowering it by 10-15 degrees, badly affects them breeding. If they are poisoned for a long time in such a way, the bloodsuckers will leave and find other hosts where they will feel comfortable. In winter, you can open windows in your apartment for 2-3 days so that bedbugs leave your home. Temporary airing will not help.

The above methods scare away bloodsuckers, but will not help to get rid of them forever. Therefore, the best option is to contact the special services that will carry out pest control, or purchase effective means for killing bugs.
