Home Bed Bug Remedies Cause Illnesses

A new study by the Centers for Disease Control reports that people are getting sick when they treat their own homes for bed bugs. The study investigated 111 people who became ill, and one who died, from the misapplication of pesticides. The death, and nearly all of the illnesses, are the result of homeowners trying to control this pest themselves. The report recommends that people with bed bugs seek the services of a professional pest control company.
