Q: What do bed bugs do to your body?

• <div><p>Bed bugs bite your body to feed on blood. When they bite, they inject an anticoagulant, which is why you may see blood stains on your sheets if you have an infestation. The bed bugs tend to bite in clusters, so the bite marks will look like itchy, red spots in zigzagging lines of three to five bites per cluster on your skin.</p><p>The bites are itchy, but for most people, they do not cause serious or long-term health complications. Itching the wound excessively could lead to an infection, and some people are allergic to bed bugs.</p></div>

Q: What attracts rats?

• <div><p>Like any other animal, rats are attracted to food sources, water, and shelter. Clean up food messes right away, don&rsquo;t leave pet food out, and secure your garbage to make your home less appealing. Fix leaky pipes and dripping faucets, and declutter spaces that rats might think to nest in.</p></div>

Q: Are termites hard to get rid of?

Q: What kills fruit flies instantly?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/will-bleach-kill-drain-flies.htm">Bleach, which can kill drain flies</a>, can also kill fruit flies, but it&rsquo;s better to lure fruit flies to a liquid rather than applying chemicals, as it&rsquo;s very difficult to reach them all. A more practical approach is to lure fruit flies with traps made from liquids like apple cider vinegar mixed with dish soap. This method is safer and more efficient, since it targets a larger number of fruit flies without relying on harsh chemicals that may not reach all the pests.</p></div>

Q: What temperature kills bed bugs and their eggs instantly?

• <div><p>A temperature of 119 degrees Fahrenheit will kill bed bugs and their eggs within 90 minutes. No temperature kills them instantly, but if exposed to high temperatures over extended periods, bed bugs will be killed off. Bed bug eggs must be exposed to the same temperature for 90 minutes to reach 100% mortality.</p></div>
