Bed-Bugs

Bed Bugs.,
Devon. not that this applies to you anymore, thank the lord. but it hought that it would be better for everyone to know for the future just in case we should come across these instances and conditions again.
there is an article in the wall street journal today, march 20th 2008 in section D1. i am not sure if you can look it up online without a subscription or not but it says:\
there is a company called Stern Environmental Group LLC located in secaucus, NJ but serves NYC, started using a technology that sprays the bugs with icy carbon dioxide to kill them. also, people have been using giant hair dryers to heat up a room and bake the bugs to death. also, in nyc bedbugs and beyond removes peoples furniture from their bomes and fumigate with poinsonous gas, (which does not seem good to me). they say the reason that the bed bugs come back is because they have been developing resistance to pesticicides! creepy/gross. they say that they enter your hosue from hotels and through secondhand furniture. so if the place that is exterminating using pyrethroids, call someone else because that is what they are resistant too.
CRAZINESS!!! . again, i know this is not helping you, but if in the future it happes., check it out!
