Bedbugs: A Historical Breviary

But they somehow found ways to reproduce and multiply all through the year, post- Industrial Revolution and the appearance of electricity. Researches state that these parasites used to, before the rise of humankind fed on animals. Their fossils have made the fact of their pre-historic existence evident.

Bedbugs! O Why?

Several reasons cause them to be reproduced and then multiply. The most common homes of these parasites are:

•    If you commute using Public Transportation, you might just invite the bedbugs to your beds.

•    Another habitat for the bedbugs are the Nursing Homes & Hospitals and their beds

•    Thrift Stores and Garage Sales are other sources of these parasites

•    Movie Theaters can also be home to them and you might open the doors by carrying them from there to your homes.

•    Another home to these wretches is the Rental Vehicles which is a depot of the bedbugs.

These are only some of the sources from which the bugs creep into your homes. To get these blood-suckers out of your, homes is that you go for “prevention is better than cure” philosophy.
