bedbugs go out of their way to attack people whereas roaches are for the most part non-confrontational
Well roaches are ALL over. I live in Florida and everyone has them at one point…UGH! The thing about roaches is you can have a brand new house or the most immaculately clean house (mine is OVERLY clean) I’m totally OCD, and STILL have roaches. You can have the exterminator come in and spray for roaches several times every few months. I personally think that bed bugs are much worse. If you think about it at night they are crawling all over you, biting and even crawling inside you. (Just like the fact there are microscopic spiders and people eat them every night while asleep) ICKY! You need to wash ALL your bedding(pillows included) in HOT water and an allergen type soap. ALL FREECLEAR is great! I’m not sure what you should do about the mattress though. Maybe you could call the exterminator and ask if a bug bomb in the room with all the bedding off would kill them. I’m not sure. IAfter they are all cleaned up you need to get a cover specially designed for allergies they will help keep the bed bugs at bay, along with dust mites. Hope this helps. Good Luck!
toasty toasty toasty…though roaches really are aweful to look at, id have to say bed bugs are much “harmful”coz with roaches you can actually see them and know when and where you can terminate them…as with bedbugs, they can be as small as an ant and they are mostly the worst “pests” to terminate and to “detect” in the first place.they cause a lot of diseases mostly affecting the respiratory system and the skin. and they are one of the worst!!! so hope this helps a bit… 🙂
