Treatment for bedbugs in Richmond VA is not as effective as it used to be, at least not when it comes to pesticides. Bedbugs have made a comeback with a vengeance and not only found in large apartment buildings but have spread to the suburbs as well. The first course of action historically was to treat with pesticides, however studies have indicated that pesticides are failing when it comes to eradicating bedbugs.
Why Pesticides do NOT Work
There are a couple of reasons that pesticides are failing at keeping down the bedbug population:
- Bedbugs are evolving and becoming immune to the pesticides.
- Pesticides are very dangerous to humans and other animals and have to be used with caution, widespread use is dangerous, so you cannot really get enough pesticides to the places that they need to go.
- Pesticides linger on surfaces, they cause damage to the environment and since they are no longer effective they are not worth the risk.
Traditional exterminators are still relying on a method that just does not work. If you want a treatment that is going to get rid of these pests once and for all you have to opt for something besides sprays, fumigation and dangerous chemicals.
