Bed Bugs Atherton, Leigh and Tyldesley.
One of the most hated and misunderstood pest insect species known to science is the bed bug (Cimex lectularius). How many of us dropped off to sleep at night as children with the words of our parents in our ears “sleep tight and don’t let the bed bugs bite”?
Bed Bugs most probably started to feed on human beings at about the period we moved into caves, the bat bugs Cimex pilosellus and C pipistrella primarily fed on bats and it is probable that bat feeding species of bug evolved to feed on human beings when our ancestors started staying} in bat infested caves.
Until the invention of DDT in the early 20th century bed bugs were common unwelcome guests in most poor quality homes.
The later part of the 20th century saw pest controllers dealing with very few bed bug call outs indeed, their presence being mostly restricted to cheap holiday hotels and student lodgings etc.
Many people mistake dust mites, which cannot be seen by the unaided eye, with bed bugs which most certainly.
Adult bedbugs are reddish brown, about a few milemetres in size and swollen after a feed of human blood.
Bed bugs typically feed on a target’s blood every seven to ten days, appearing in the early hours of the morning and homing in on their target by sniffing the exhaled carbon dioxide from human breath and when nearby their target, they sense infra red heat.
Without a suitable human host to feed on they can remain in a period of dormancy for periods of up to a year or more.
Bed Bugs
The first signs of a bed bug problem are spots of blood on sheets and on the base of mattresses and many people can react badly to bed bug bites.
The early the 21st century has seen bed bug numbers multiplying everywhere on the planet, the easy availability of overseas and economic migration have both been given as reasons for the resurgence.
What is positive is that that are now making a real comeback not only in low quality housing but top class hotels, schools and even hospitals.
One London borough reports a doubling of bed bugs problems every year from 1995 to 2001.
One night away in an infested bed is all it needs, they catch a ride in your suitcases or bags. Stretford Pest control companies are also now reporting cases of transport related bed bug infestations on transport of all kinds so a simple ride to work on an infested tube or train can be enough to spread bed bugs to your own home.
They are an tricky pest to deal with as contrary to popular opinion they do not just live in beds. They infest any nook and cranny conveniently close to a sleeping human being, beds, electrical sockets, televisions, bed side telephones etc and dealing with them is both laborious and time consuming. They have even been revealed found living under the toe-nails of infirm people and in the folds of flesh on grossly over-weight people.
They are not a pest that can be tackled by an amateur and a pest control professional will almost certainly be needed.

Cats Often Poisoned by Household Cleaners and Disenfectants
Welcome to another info blast from EasyInfoBlogs.com
Our story this week comes from Larry at www.ProVetLogic.com about common problems that they see concerning pet safety.
He said, “There are a common household items that people fail to consider that can be toxic when pets are around. Household disinfectants such as chlorine, ammonia or products with caustic agents such as bath scum removers can be lethal for pets, especially cats.”
He also noted, “Many people are not aware that animals can absorb chemicals through the pads of their feet. It can be as severe asif they licked the cleaning agents on the floor.
A precaution we are suggesting this winter is making people aware of the problem of putting out what’s commonly called road salt around your sidewalks and driveway. Animals can ingest the salt and become ill.”
Now, Morton Salt has released a non-salt based de-icer called “Safe-T-Pet.” It’s on sale at in the weather alert section of ProVetLogic.com
This product is recommended by Veterinarians because it doesn’t poison your pets, is easily seen because of the little, non-staining blue beads in the product and is very affordable.
In 2007, the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center reported that their top poison calls involved the following common household goods and products:
OTC drugs and prescriptions, both of the human and pet variety.
Insecticides and insect control products such as flea and tick preparations and insect baits.
Common household plants, such as lilies, azaleas and kalanchoe, as well as Rhododendron, sago palm and schefflera.
Chemical bait products designed for mice, rats and other rodents.
Cleaning agents such as bleaches, detergents and disinfectants.
Consumers are encouraged to find eco-friendly and pet friendly solutions to their cleaning problems. Veterinarians recommend ProVetLogic’s Stable Environment, which actually bio-degrades organic substances, such as urine and feces, to reduce odors and respiratory problems.
Consumers are also encouraged to pursue pet-friendly foods such as grain-free dog and cat foods, which are more consistent with the regular eating habits of those animals.

Words that build Network Marketing Organizations
Words are powerful indeed. Words can be positive or negative depending on their use. Used to encourage the faint hearted they are welcome. Used to build up the community we live in simply amazing. Words are powerful tools that can be life changing.
When they are used to tear somebody else down and deflate their dream useless words are pretty much useless – unless you are a politician running a negative ad campaign I suppose.
We use words to promote products, dreams and lifestyles. Our words are focused explaining how you can create a website and reach the world with a new idea. Amazing as it would sound, you do not have to be the editor of the New York Times or the BBC to change the world anymore.
Network Marketing is a rather simple concept. It is centered on a dream of building a successful business promoting and selling a product with the goal of finding others to do the same while earning a little bit of their sales. When this rather revolutionary idea was first proposed the idea was nearly made illegal in the United States. Luckily for us, common sense and the entrepreneurial spirit prevailed and today the concepts of vertically integrated business exist everywhere you look.
Words can explain powerful concepts, topple governments and oust tyrants. For us, we use them to explain a better way to run a business by helping others also become successful - network marketing.
Thinking before you speak, and speaking only things that benefits others is a wise strategy. Speaking things that help other succeed is doubly wise. Read some of our words on network marketing and nutritional supplements by following this link.
