Book Description
If you've arrived here, you probably know-or suspect-you have a bed bug problem. If that's the case, don't lose heart. There is hope. I can show you how to get rid of bed bugs without losing your mind, money or dignity. The truth is that bed bugs are not caused by poor sanitation, and they have nothing whatsoever to do with social or economic status. They are cunning hitchhikers, and anyone who is in the wrong place at the wrong time is susceptible to an infestation. They can thrive in the finest five-star hotels, well run hospitals, and million-dollar homes. I know firsthand the devastation bed bugs can have on your physical and emotional well-being. You can read all about my personal struggle with bed bugs right inside this book. After I won the battle in my own home, I used my knowledge and experience to teach thousands of other families how to get rid of bed bugs in their homes. I am here to tell you that you, too, can get rid of them yourself-quickly, safely, and inexpensively. I will share with you in this book everything I wished someone had shared with me. I will give you advanced techniques your exterminator doesn't even know about. I'll cover all the details the websites and videos you'll find on the internet leave out. I will spare you the weeks of trial and error that I went through during my first battle with bed bugs. Then I'll teach you, step-by-step, everything I have learned studying bed bugs and fighting infestations for the past 5 years. This book will provide you with everything you'll need to get rid of bed bugs as quickly and inexpensively as possible. You stand at a turning point. Half measures will avail you nothing when it comes to these devastating creatures. The step-by-step methods I'll describe for you have been tested and proven. To ensure they work you will need to take action, following the instructions precisely. If you have the courage and resolve, this book will provide you with a proven, step-by-step course of action to get rid of bed bugs once and for all. -Chipp Marshal "I was delighted to hear that Mr. Marshal was publishing his methods on how to get rid of bed bugs. As a real estate agent and property manager, I see bed bug infestations more frequently with each passing year. Many of the affected families cannot afford to hire an exterminator. Parents are helpless and their children suffer. For some, there is no escape from this epidemic and it is absolutely heartbreaking to watch. This book is being published by the right person at the right time. It is reassuring to know that his methods will now be available to millions of people around the world." -Christina Murray

Never Home Alone
Author: Rob Dunn
Publisher: Basic Books
ISBN: 154164574X
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 343
Book Description
A natural history of the wilderness in our homes, from the microbes in our showers to the crickets in our basements Even when the floors are sparkling clean and the house seems silent, our domestic domain is wild beyond imagination. In Never Home Alone, biologist Rob Dunn introduces us to the nearly 200,000 species living with us in our own homes, from the Egyptian meal moths in our cupboards and camel crickets in our basements to the lactobacillus lounging on our kitchen counters. You are not alone. Yet, as we obsess over sterilizing our homes and separating our spaces from nature, we are unwittingly cultivating an entirely new playground for evolution. These changes are reshaping the organisms that live with us -- prompting some to become more dangerous, while undermining those species that benefit our bodies or help us keep more threatening organisms at bay. No one who reads this engrossing, revelatory book will look at their homes in the same way again.

Infested

Pages : 275
Book Description
Bed bugs are thriving across the globe--from North and South America, to Africa, Asia and Europe. For some time, bed bugs were naively seen as a problem unique to developing countries, but their love of high thread content sheets has set them up in five-star residences in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and other parts of Europe as well. Bed Bugs were first noticed in society by Americans in the early 1700 s. Many believe sailboats returning from Europe unknowingly carried the bugs as cargo, as sailors complained of being attacked as they slept in their cabins. With the introduction of DDT in the 1950s, bed bugs nearly disappeared. But when DDT was banned in the 1970 s, a wave of super bed bugs rejoiced. Now, up to 25% of residents in some cities have reported problems with the pests, bordering on epidemic levels. In fact, history has never seen such widespread and intense bed bug infestations. Our propensity for travel has left bed bugs with enviable frequent flyer status too. Following the Sydney Olympics, for example, and the thousands of visitors to Australia, it was estimated that the bed bug occupancy rate in Sydney hotels was 95%. In "Sleep Tight, "Brooke Borel introduces readers to the biology of these amazingly adaptive insects which can travel over 100 foot distances at night--and the myriad ways in which humans respond to them. She travels to meet with scientists who are rearing bed bug colonies on their own blood-- to the BedBug University, to swank apartments on the upper East Side of Manhattan. She explores the history of bed bugs, and their near extinction, charting how current infestations are in direct response to human chemical use. She also introduces us to the economics of bed bug infestations, and the industry that has arisen to combat that. This is the first history and natural history of bed bugs, and it leaves few exoskeletons unturned."
