I came across this website while I am looking for practical ways to make my apartment air quality better.
We have had bug problems and used an exterminator.
The bugs are thriving but my son and I aren’t doing too well with left over odors and the need to fight back the bugs means consistent effort to re-apply the spray.
Is there a natural effective antedote to kill bedbugs/roaches and possible dustmites and live to tell about it? Thanks, Bonnie
Bonnie,
I’d love to help, but I am not an expert at fighting bug infestations. A good air purifier can help eliminate the odors and chemicals left form the exterminator, and a good vacuum cleaner may help with the dust mites, but what you need is a real solution to the bug problem. Here are a coupel of sites that I found that has more information: http://www.getridofthings.com/get-rid-of-bed-bugs.htm and http://www.allergybegone.com/dustmites.html
Good luck,
Dan
