Insects are the most unwanted "guests" of human habitation. Their presence always causes a lot of trouble, because the desire of everyone to get rid of such unpleasant neighbors is quite understandable. One of the insects that can cause a lot of unpleasant moments is bed bugs. How to find out if they are in the apartment?
Bug detection
Evidence that it was bed bugs that appeared in housing will be several facts:
- Restless sleep lately.
- Swellings began to appear on the body. Usually they have drops of blood on them, which has not yet dried up by morning.
- Persistent itching at the bites.
Some think they are mosquito bites. To find out who actually visited (or settled) in the apartment, you need to carefully consider the shape of the bite. If there is only one trace, then this is a mosquito bite, but a path of bites indicates that bedbugs have chosen the house.
How to get insects out?
If insects are not eliminated, they will go hunting every night,thereby increasing the number of bites, which means causing additional trouble. On sale you can find a lot of tools that can be effective (or not very) in the fight against bloodsucking insects. But there are drugs that never fail. One of them is Get from bedbugs. What is this substance and how is it different from others?
Key Benefits
The main characteristics of the drug, which are extremely important for people and animals, is safety. To achieve this, the poison was placed in microcapsules, so that the poison does not remain in the air, but descends, so when inhaled it does not enter the body of people or animals. Thanks to this, immediately after processing, you can go inside the house or apartment and not waste time on airing.
Other equally important benefits:
- Long exposure time.
- No smell.
- No trace after processing. Even if the Get ("Get") from bedbugs was applied to wallpaper, furniture, floors, its remains will not be noticeable on them.
- Ease of use.
Product description
Get is an insecticide. It goes on sale in small plastic jars (100 ml). The main active ingredient is chlorpyrifos. On bedbugs and other representatives of insects, it has a nerve-paralytic effect. Different organs of insects can serve as routes for the penetration of poison:
- stomach;
- airway;
- outer cover.
Designed insecticide not only for bedbugs: they can destroy cockroaches, ants, fleas and other insects that can penetrate into housing.
Impact features
Microcapsules with poison fall on the paws of insects. They carry it to their nests, infecting their relatives. Get bedbug remedy, once in the body, blocks the passage of nerve impulses. The consequence of this is paralysis and subsequent death of insects. But they do not die immediately, but after a few hours, managing to infect other bedbugs during this time.
The larvae, which at this point have not yet hatched from eggs, will also not be able to survive - as soon as they get the opportunity to move around, they immediately become infected and soon die. Moreover, usually the larvae are deposited in hard-to-reach places, but this will not save them - just one contact with an infected individual is enough to get infected too.
Thanks to the chain reaction, insects are destroyed efficiently and quickly: usually on the 3-7th day they are no longer in the house. Moreover, for prevention, it is not necessary to re-apply the insecticide: in those places where it was sprayed, it will persist, remaining active for 5-6 months.
How not to buy a fake?
Today, among the most popular insect repellants is Get. Feedback from ordinary citizens and those who are engaged in the extermination of insects on duty emphasize the effectiveness of the insecticide and, most importantly, its safety. Many write: to get rid of insects completely, just onehousing processing. This factor is important, since repeated spraying is fraught with various inconveniences for residents.
But because of such a high popularity, dishonest citizens decided to profit: there are cases when, after cleaning the premises, bugs still remained in them, as evidenced by reappearing traces of their bites. This usually happens when not the original product was purchased, but its fake.
How to avoid this situation? The remedy for cockroaches, bedbugs and fleas Get comes in 100 ml vials. Both the bottles themselves and their contents are white. Sometimes it may have a pinkish tint. Without smell. Pay attention to the following features:
- The presence of another one under the main cover, made of foil, which serves as additional protection. The manufacturer's logo must be present on the foil.
- The label must have an expiration date. Moreover, it is not just printed, but slightly pressed into the paper.
- The bubble should not be transparent.
- The drug itself is a concentrated emulsion.
This is the standard, and if there are any deviations from these indicators, most likely it is not a real drug, but a fake one.
Instructions for use
Before you start cleaning the premises, using the Get bedbug remedy, you need to clean up. You will need to wash floors, windows, doors and other surfaces that can be treated with soapy water. This will allow you to achieve the maximum effect from the use of the drug.
Now we need to make the substance more liquid. For this, ordinary water is used. Its ratio to the substance is 10:1. If the room where disinfection will be carried out is too cluttered or there are a lot of bedbugs, the concentration can be increased by taking not 10 parts of water, but less. For example, 1:8 or 1:6. A sprayer is used to apply the insecticide. It can be a conventional spray gun or a professional device.
When spraying, be sure to use protective equipment - gloves and a gauze and cotton bandage. In addition, long-sleeve tops should be worn, and pants should cover the legs completely.
Apply Get from bedbugs in the following places:
- Window and door frames.
- Cabinets.
- Boxes.
- Bed frames.
- Surfaces inside sofas.
- Switches.
- Sockets.
- Plinth.
- The surface behind the paintings.
- Other places where bed bugs can live.
But applying Get from bedbugs to toys, clothing, sofa cushions and other similar places is unacceptable. If the insecticide comes into contact with the skin during operation, it must be washed off immediately.
Determining the right amount of insecticide
How much money is needed depends on how much the housing is infested with insects. Usually one, maximum 2 bubbles are used for a one-two-room apartment. If necessary,then the amount of the drug will need to be increased.
If the infection rate is low enough, one vial will be enough.
Second degree - the presence of a small number of bites on the body of residents. In this case, the remedy for cockroaches and bedbugs Get must be taken in the amount of one bottle for one or two rooms.
In the third degree, the number of bites is already more significant, and the most insects can already be found in the bed. Then, to process a two-room apartment, you will need 2 vials of the substance.
If bedbugs attack even during the day, this is already the 4th degree of infection, and you need to take at least 3 bottles of insecticide.
In addition, the amount of drug needed for treatment depends on the size of the housing - the larger it is and the more rooms it contains, the more drug will be needed to spray.
If the treatment is carried out for the purpose of prevention, which usually happens when insects have appeared in a neighboring apartment, and the possibility of unwanted tenants is high enough, a minimum amount of the drug should be used. Then from 6 to 9 months you can not be afraid of infection - it is during this period that Get from bedbugs will remain active.
If at least one bug from a neighboring apartment gets into the processed apartment, there is a possibility that their number in the neighboring apartment will also decrease, albeit slightly.
