Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Experts provide safe, comprehensive solutions that eliminate current problems and prevent future infestations.

If you are looking for ways to kill bed bugs instantly, heat is the most effective instant killer. Exposing bed bugs to temperatures above 131 degrees Fahrenheit for over an hour can eliminate them. Steam cleaners and dryers on high heat work well for this method. Other options that may kill bed bugs instantly include bleach, disinfectant sprays with alcohol, diatomaceous earth, and hydrogen peroxide.

However, note that many DIY treatments won’t reach bugs hidden in cracks or behind walls. For severe infestations, it’s best to call a licensed exterminator for professional heat or chemical treatment.

If you’re wondering whether bug candles can keep flies away, the answer is yes (and this goes for fruit flies and many other types of flies. However, most bug candles contain citronella, which isn’t suitable for indoor use. This is because the fumes are strong and can leave a strong scent on walls and objects.

Keep flies out of your house by keeping the windows or doors closed, especially when cooking. You can also install window screens to prevent pests from entering your home while allowing a cool breeze to enter your home.

There are many steps you can take to keep mice out of your home. The most preventative include removing all available food sources, keeping your home clean, and sealing up entry points to your home. You can also try using live traps or even getting a cat. If none of these measures work, enlist the help of a pest control company.
