For those of you who already have cats, you have already won half the battle after using this in various places around the house to kill bedbugs!
We were so surprised watch this:
Okay, so you heard it from jackcarpentersax over on his youtube page! So you can grind some kitty litter into a fine powder and place where you think you need to.
Who would have thought these little packets would come in so handy? Kittly litter contains silica gel so that is super!
This is how we placed our silica gel kittly litter:
We bought these little plastic containers at the dollar store near us, they are perfect to put under the legs of the bed.
Make sure you look at the packaging to see if it contains silica gel, I am sure most kitty litters contain it but just be safe and look
The exterminator left and I have to wait for an appointment for extermination! I sure wasn't going to wait and continue being eaten alive from these little blood suckers!
I did alot of research online and decided to start our battle!
I wasn't just going to sit around and wait while these bugs kept biting us! I took a bucket with bleach and water and started washing all walls and surfaces I could wash.
You will read how something as simple as rubbing alcohol will kill these pests on the spot. I bought probably about 10 bottles of this stuff in preparation for the weeks ahead. I know when I went to the local pharmacy the cashier probably thought "what do they need with so much alcohol?"
I bought an all purpose spray bottle but ended up only needing the nozzle as it fit over the huge bottles of alcohol I had bought.
I opened my windows in the bedroom and sprayed everything and soaked my bed just in case there were bugs I couldn't see.
At this point, I had not seen any live bugs other than the one the exterminator showed me, so I still really didn't know what they looked like other than images on google.
