Una vez que las cucarachas entren en su casa tiene algo más que una plaga de antiestéticas. Durante más de dos décadas se ha reconocido que algunas partes de las cucarachas son altamente alergénicos.

Hay una conexión establecida entre la infestación y el desarrollo de asma en los niños. Los niños son más vulnerables debido a que arrastrarse por el suelo y entrar en contacto con las heces, larvas, huevos y otras partes de las cucarachas que están incrustados en la alfombra, zócalos, y el polvo de la casa que se ha instalado allí.

La conexión con el asma inducida por alergia es clara:

* 60% de las personas con asma prueba positiva a alergenos de cucarachas.
* Los niños asmáticos que son alérgicos a las cucarachas son 3 veces más probabilidades de ser hospitalizados por asma si tienen una exposición significativa a las poblaciones de cucarachas grandes en su entorno (National Cooperative Inner City Asthma Study, 1997)
* Aunque las alergias tales como los ácaros del polvo están presentes es el nivel de alergenos de las cucarachas en el ambiente que está más estrechamente relacionada con la severidad del asma en los niños.

Además, estas plagas transportar diversos tipos de bacterias en su sistema gastrointestinal, que se depositan toda la casa cada vez que defecan. Bacterias aisladas de los excrementos de las cucarachas son la salmonela. La intoxicación alimentaria, la diarrea y otras enfermedades gastrointestinales en humanos están asociados con las infestaciones.

El desorden de control para control de cucarachas

Expertos en gestión de plagas llamar las zonas de vida de las plagas "albergues". Mientras que las cucarachas salen de noche cuando está dormido se buscarán lugares oscuros para ocultar durante el día y, en particular como para ser casi "capullo" cuando está en reposo. En otras palabras, les gusta tener todas las superficies de su cuerpo tocando algo. Esto hace que buscar muy, muy pequeñas grietas y hendiduras en el que puedan resguardarse en reposo durante su sueño durante el día.

Las estrategias recomendadas para el control de cucarachas incluye la eliminación de los desechos y el desorden inútil. Las pilas de periódicos, cajas de cartón, y pilas de ropa son albergues ideal.

Estrategias de control de desorden (control de cucarachas) que ayudan a reducir los albergues de las cucarachas son:

* Uso de almacenamiento de contenedores de plástico (no de cartón) si debe almacenar artículos como la ropa de temporada y asegurarse de que la tapa ajusta bien y el compartimiento de almacenamiento no está agrietada.
* No guarde los periódicos en su casa, llevarlos directamente a la papelera de reciclaje al aire libre
* No dejar de lado los platos de alimentos para mascotas con los alimentos y el agua. Alimente a su mascota en un horario regular, luego tomar el plato y lo lava después de que su mascota ha comido.
* No almacenar las bolsas de plástico utilizadas en el marco del fregadero de la cocina. Ellos hacen un capullo cucaracha perfecta.
* Deseche las cajas de cartón corrugado utilizadas de inmediato. Las grietas en cartón ondulado son ideales para los albergues de la cucaracha y que pueden vivir de la materia orgánica de la caja para que se reproducen prolíficamente en cajas de cartón.

Eliminar el desorden también significa eliminar el desorden exterior de la casa. Cosas como la leña, reciclar las cajas y latas de la basura puede atraer a las cucarachas, y proporcionar albergues ideal. Una vez que la cucaracha se ha establecido su residencia fuera de su casa se mueve dentro a través de pequeñas grietas y hendiduras alrededor de la plomería y los conductos eléctricos es una tarea fácil.

Otra forma en que esta plaga se mete en su casa es por excursiones de enganche en otra cosa. Si sus hábitos de compra son los mercados de pulgas que frecuentan, subastas, o la compra de bienes por sorteo "o" por la libra "asegurarse de que estos artículos son cuidadosamente analizadas y descomprimido para las canales de las cucarachas y las cubiertas del huevo antes de ponerlas en su casa. Matar a cualquier huevos vivos que pueden estar presentes por el lavado de ropa usada antes de entrar en su armario.

Si se construye el desorden de la cucaracha vendrá y se quedará. El desorden de control (control de cucarachas) no es sólo un mantra para la vida organizada. Es también una estrategia para la promoción de la salud.

Cockroach Control

What Attracts the Cockroach to Your Home?

Clutter control is an essential part of cockroach control. Clutter is the perfect habitat for the cockroach. They love to live in cramped quarters and will take up residence anywhere they can happily eat and breed.

It is the food in your home that attracts this household pest. Like any living being they need food and water to survive, so any building where food is prepared and stored will be an attractive living area. The cockroach can easily live off the food from unwashed dishes, bits of pet food on the floor and even the glue on postage stamps or book bindings.

One cockroach will lead to many. With an ongoing food and water supply there is no reason for them to leave your domicile. They will continue to live and breed in your home as long as conditions are favourable.

Health Problems Associated with Cockroach Infestations

Once the cockroach come into your home you have more than just an unsightly pest. For more than two decades it has been recognized that cockroach parts are highly allergenic.

There is an established connection between an infestation and the development of asthma in children. Children are more vulnerable because they crawl around on the floor and come into contact with the feces, larvae, eggs and other cockroach parts that are embedded in the carpet, baseboards, and the household dust that has settled there.

The connection to allergy induced asthma is clear:

* 60% of people with asthma test positive to cockroach allergens.
* asthmatic children who are allergic to cockroaches are 3 times more likely to be hospitalized for asthma if they have significant exposure to large cockroach populations in their environment (National Cooperative Inner City Asthma Study, 1997)
* even if other allergies such as dust mites are present it is the level of cockroach allergens in the environment that is most closely associated with the severity of the asthma in children.

Additionally these pests carry various types of bacteria in their gastrointestinal system which are deposited all over your house whenever they defecate. Bacteria isolated from cockroach droppings include salmonella. Food poisoning, diarrhea, and other gastrointestinal illness in human are associated with infestations.

Clutter Control for Cockroach Control

Pest management experts call the living areas for pests “harborages”. While the cockroaches will come out at night when you are asleep they will seek out dark places to hide during the day and particularly like to be almost “cocooned” when they are resting. In other words they like to have all surfaces of their body touching something. This makes them seek out very, very small cracks and crevices where they can hunker down undisturbed for their daytime sleep.

The recommended strategies for cockroach control includes clearing clutter and useless debris. Stacks of newspapers, cardboard boxes, and piles of clothing are ideal harborages.

Clutter control strategies (cockroach control) that help to reduce cockroach harborages include:

* Use plastic storage bins (not cardboard) if you must store items like seasonal clothing and make sure the lid fits tightly and the storage bin is not cracked.
* Do not store newspapers in your home, take them directly to an outdoor recycle bin
* Do not leave out pet food dishes with food and water. Feed your pet at a regular time, then take the dish and wash it after your pet has eaten.
* Do not store unused plastic bags under the kitchen sink. They make a perfect cockroach cocoon.
* Discard unused corrugated cardboard immediately. The crevices in corrugated cardboard are ideal harborages for the cockroach and they can live off the organic matter of the box so they will breed prolifically in cardboard boxes.

Clearing clutter also means clearing the exterior clutter from around the house. Things like firewood, recycle boxes, and garbage cans can attract roaches, and provide ideal harborages. Once the cockroach has taken up residence outside your home moving inside through tiny cracks and crevices around plumbing and electrical conduits is an easy task.

Another way that this pest gets into your home is by hitch hiking on something else. If your shopping habits include frequenting flea markets, auctions, or purchasing goods by the “lot” or “by the pound” make sure that these items are unpacked and carefully scrutinized for cockroach carcasses and egg casings before you bring them into your home. Kill any live eggs that may be present by washing used clothing before it goes into your closet.

If you build clutter the cockroach will come and it will stay. Clutter control (cockroach control) is not just a mantra for organized living. It is also a strategy for health promotion.

Natural flea control

The truth is: fleas thrive in areas where there is a lot of grime, dirt and rotting materials about. These are the breeding grounds of the fleas’ larvae and eggs. So if you are planning on exerting natural flea control in your home, over the yard and of course, over your pet, you need to make sure that you are in a cleaning and scrubbing mode. One of the best agents you can use for natural flea control is water. Water drowns out both the adult fleas and the larvae. This is primarily the reason why there is no need to buy those really expensive and potentially harmful pet soaps and solutions. Another great natural flea control agent is heat. Heat destroys the flea larvae and eggs. With that said, here are some tips on how you can use these two natural flea control agents to your advantage.

The first rule of natural flea control is to start treating your surroundings first before going after the fleas in your pet. A great natural flea control option means that you make sure that the problem does not return any time soon. Unfortunately, fleas breed very quickly and an infestation may happen in a span of a few weeks. Your first goal for natural flea control is to make sure you contain the problem first. Limit your pet’s movements to outside your home while you scrub and clean your home. Wash all fabric materials. Wipe down exposed surfaces with a solution of antibacterial liquid detergent soap and water. Vacuum the carpet to kill the larvae and eggs, and use the steam option when available. Once you have done that, you can now turn your attention to some natural flea control measures on your pet, and the outside surroundings.

Natural flea control measure number 2 is to make sure that you set up a flea-free area once the pet is bathed. Nothing defeats your purpose of exerting natural flea control than your pet rolling on floors or on grass where there are larvae and eggs about. Set up a specific walkway and room so that your pet can dry off comfortable without coming in contact with more fleas that may be in the surrounding areas.

Your third step to natural flea control is bathing your pet. If the problem is mild, regular pet shampoo and water can do. For medium to severe infestation, try using the most organic flea shampoo you can find. You can also use food grade diatomaceous earth as a natural flea control agent. This dried sea plankton-based insecticide is both organic and is proven safe to use on most home pets. Apply this on the fur when your pet has dried off. However, it may sting a little if rubbed on raw areas, so try to keep away from your pets face, the genital region or patches of exposed skin.
