Means "Clean House" for bedbugs

Bed bugs are insects that have lived side by side with humans for centuries. These blood-sucking parasites are not carriers of dangerous diseases, however, they can cause a lot of trouble to a person with their bites, depriving him of peace and sleep. The bugs were defeated only in the 50-60s of the last century with the help of a powerful and very toxic pesticide DDT. At the same time, this pesticide was banned. More than 40 years later, these pests have reminded of themselves again. Modern insecticides help to get rid of them.

Having found in our apartment traces of the habitation of uninvited guests - bed bugs, and, possibly, other parasites (cockroaches, domestic or garden ants, fleas, termites), any of us is ready to immediately begin to destroy them and forget about their existence. At this point, the question arises - which tool to use.

When choosing a drug for the destruction of blood-sucking parasites, one must not forget that any of them is an insecticide. Simply put - poison or poison. The Clean Home campaign contains two pyrethroids, cypermethrin and tetramethrin.

Cypermethrin is a contact-intestinal synthetic pyrothroid insecticide used to combat harmful insects both in summer cottages, in fields, vegetable gardens, in backyards, and indoors. It acts through the nervous system of the pests. When in contact with chitinous membranes, cypermethrin paralyzes the insect and thereby kills it. Tetramethrin is a contact agent that kills harmful insects, from fleas and flies to bedbugs and moths. Its action is similar to cypermethrin; upon contact with tetramethrin in arthropods, instant paralysis occurs, and they die.

The advantage of a synthetic substance is that its action lasts at least a month, while natural substances disintegrate within a few hours under the influence of air and light. During its action, the insecticide is able to destroy both nymphs (larvae) and sexually mature individuals, which helps to protect your home from pests for a long time.

Due to the low concentration of the active substance, the agent is low-toxic, if used correctly, it is harmless to children and animals. When working with insecticides, precautions must be taken. Any company that produces products for the fight against arthropods will provide you with detailed instructions on the composition, method of application, hazard class, precautions when working with these substances.... The Clean Home campaign is no exception. Therefore, before you start processing, carefully study the instructions for using the purchased bedbug remedy and only then proceed with the action.

The Clean House campaign produces drugs for bed bugs in several forms:

• aerosol (cylinders with liquid content);
• spray (spray containing liquid with chamomile extract);
• powder (plastic bags with dust);
• crayons (plastic bags with crayons).

Insecticide of the Clean House series in the form of an aerosol is a completely ready-to-use preparation for the instant destruction of all types of domestic insects. The kit for the container with the ready-made substance includes a special nozzle that allows you to process all hard-to-reach surfaces. The nozzle is a thin tube of short length, fixed on the cylinder in the area of ​​the sprayer.

The active ingredients are insecticides of the pyrethroid group - cypermethrin and tetramethrin in low concentration. This makes the agent low-toxic to humans, but deadly to insects. Cypermethrin and tetramethrin act in a similar way, they destroy insects through paralysis of the nervous system. Due to the content of two active ingredients, the product is versatile and capable of destroying many volatile, creeping, blood-sucking pests.

The composition of the spray "Clean House" similar to the composition of the aerosol, but it is reinforced with another component - piperonyl butoxide. Thanks to this component, the drug is even more effective in the fight against household pests. It differs from aerosol in that it has the same pressure both inside the bottle and outside it. Particles of insecticide sprayed with a spray are larger (about 5 microns) than aerosol (no more than 2-3 microns).

Convenient in that it can be used in a summer cottage or in a vegetable garden by pouring the composition into a garden sprayer... Experience has shown that liquid forms of bed bug control products are more effective than powdered ones. You can prepare a liquid product yourself by diluting the powder with water to the desired concentration (for 0.5 liters of water 5 g of dry dust), pour it into a spray bottle and process cracks, cracks and backs in furniture, carpets and other secluded places where they like hiding bugs.

The Clean House pest control powder is, in fact, a well-known dust. In its composition, the powder is similar to a spray and contains three active substances - cypermethrin, tetramethrin and piperonyl butoxide, which greatly enhances the effectiveness of the drug, since it significantly increases the duration of the action of two other harmful components. The prolonged action of the insecticides included in the composition of the product makes it possible to treat contaminated premises once, no re-treatment is required. Using the product in its pure form poses a potential hazard to small children and pets.

Powder "Clean House" is used in two ways.

• In the form of a solution, prepared from water and powder in a proportion of 5 g of dust to 0.5 liters of water. Pour the solution into a spray bottle, treat the surfaces of furniture and walls.
• Directly dry powderby scattering it in places where the paths of bed bugs pass.

Crayons "Clean House" - the most economical means of dealing with domestic bugs... It is consumed slowly when used. The composition of the agent includes alpha-cypermethrin, like all agents of this group, it causes paralysis of insects and their death.

When using crayons, draw wide stripes on hard surfaces along the path of the bugs. On fabrics and soft surfaces, the use of this form of the preparation is not recommended, since after processing such surfaces are difficult to clean of harmful substances. The product belongs to the 4th class of hazard, which means that it is not toxic to humans and pets... It is not recommended to use the drug often because of the risk of insect resistance to poison.

Consider the methods of application and precautions for the destruction of bed bugs by means of "Clean House" of different forms of release.

Move the furniture away from the walls in order to gain access to the baseboards and back walls of the cabinets. After making sure that the carpet is not infected with insects, we roll it up and take it out of the room. If the carpet is infected, we treat it together with other surfaces. The sofa must be partially disassembled to gain access to the interior surfaces. We remove the mattresses from the beds.
• Putting on protective equipment - a respirator, gloves, glasses, a kerchief to protect skin, mucous membranes, hair from poison.
• We remove aquariums, terrariums from the premises or seal them with glass by turning off the compressor. If other pets live in the apartment, we remove them from the treated room.
• We close windows and doors.
