The fact that bedbugs are carriers of deadly diseases has not been scientifically confirmed. However, their daily bites, which lead to insomnia, stress and a sense of insecurity, are a good reason to start driving out the bloodsuckers. Experienced people recommend "Fufanon" - a Danish-made insecticide.
The active ingredient of "Fufanon" is malathion. This is an insecticide and acaricide of the general spectrum, with the help of which it is possible to eliminate all insects inhabiting a specific area - both creeping and flying. This poison is relevant in the fight against moths, ticks, fleas, aphids and other "favorites" of entomologists, including bed bugs, which occupy domestic houses and apartments more often than others.
The latter can "move" to you from your neighbors, using a ventilation shaft as a tunnel. If you live near a forest or livestock farm, your home is also at risk. Forest bugs, for example, move to human habitation when the humidity in their natural habitat is too high. And the bloodsuckers inhabiting poultry farms and other livestock farms always prefer the blood of animals to human - such are their tastes and customs.
There are over 40,000 species of bedbugs in the world. About 2000 of them live in Russia. But the most annoying and disgusting are bed bugs, which are sometimes called furniture or bed bugs. They bite a person, saturated with his blood, leaving behind a chain of five to seven red dots on the body.

Step by step instructions for use
In order for the product to give the expected result, you must strictly follow the instructions on the package. Without studying this information, it is prohibited to start working with an insecticide. Neglect of protective measures can lead to poor health.
The main symptoms of poisoning are a sharp breakdown, nausea, vomiting and severe dizziness. In such a situation, you need to go out into the fresh air, take a sorbent, wait for the arrival of a doctor. To avoid negative consequences, prepare carefully with a response.
Preparatory activities
The first thing you have to do in the list of preparatory measures is the so-called "reconnaissance in force". It is good if you know exactly where the bugs accumulate. To do this, move all cabinetry and upholstered furniture away from the walls, check the most inaccessible places for the presence of chitinous membranes and waste products of these disgusting insects. It is impossible not to notice the nest: it gives the impression of a lichen, untidy place that you do not want to touch, next to which it is unpleasant to be around.
Safety engineering
At the second stage, one step before pest control, you should take care of your safety. The following attributes will help you with this:
Pets and household members must leave the family nest before pest control begins. Indoor flowers also need to be taken out. If the house has a terrarium or aquarium, the surface of the vessel should be covered with a thick cardboard or wooden shutter to prevent the chemical from entering the water.
Solution preparation and processing
To dilute the drug, take any container that has a non-food purpose, and follow the instructions presented in the form of a table.

“My wife and I have a small country house outside the city. Naturally, like other gardeners, we are faced with the problem of pests. We use fufanon. It costs cheap and works efficiently. I fight with the help of this poison with aphids mainly, but from the ants terrorizing my garden, it also helps a lot. I pour the solution directly into their holes. " Gennady, 64 years old
“We always use fufanon to fight caterpillars on cabbage. For some reason, we always have a lot of them. If you bought other drugs, you would have gone broke long ago. And this one is cheap - about 50 rubles. " Marina, 40 years old
“I live in a small village in an apartment building. Above me lives a neighbor who is fond of alcohol. About a year ago, she brought bedbugs to her from somewhere. They crawled towards me through the ventilation. He began to find out how to poison them, and learned about fufanon. I processed the apartment in accordance with the instructions, and the parasites were gone. It helped. And inexpensive, the most important thing. " Nikolay, 28 years old

Answers to 5 pressing questions
If pest control is carried out according to all the rules, then the bugs will be completely destroyed - from sexually mature individuals and nymphs to larvae and eggs.Insects will begin to die in the first hours after treatment, but the entire domestic population will become extinct no earlier than three days later. Below are the answers to five of the most frequently asked questions.
- What if the room is infested with bedbugs? If the house, apartment or office is heavily infected with bloodsuckers, experts recommend re-treatment with "Fufanon". When using the "Nova" variety, the concentration of the drug must be increased. Since the agent retains a barrier effect for 14 days, repeated disinsection should be carried out no earlier than two weeks later.
- And if, after disinfestation, several larvae remain intact? The procedure must be carried out as carefully as possible. Even a few surviving eggs or larvae will lead to a rapid restoration of the population to its former numbers.
- Can windows be opened during spraying and after treatment? It is not only possible, but also necessary. The acrid smell of the drug can cause poisoning, so the windows in the apartment should be wide open until the return of the household from the "link".
- Do I need to clean up after spraying the poison? After the persecution of insects, a day later, the whole house must be washed with a soda solution. To do this, dissolve 400 g of soda in a bucket of water, thoroughly wash furniture, floors and objects with which a person comes into contact in everyday life. Hard-to-reach places do not need to be processed - let their smell continue to scare away intruders.
- When can I go home? Not earlier than 24 hours after treatment with soda solution.
If "Fufanon" gets on the skin, immediately wash the affected area with soapy water. If the poison gets into your eyes, you need to rinse them well under running water, and then, having dripped with a 2% solution of novocaine, be sure to see an ophthalmologist or family doctor. If you feel an unpleasant bitter taste in your mouth, rinse your mouth with a mild baking soda solution and go out into fresh air. If the condition does not improve within an hour, call an ambulance immediately.
Users confirm the effectiveness of the drug, but at the same time focus on its unpleasant odor. If this aspect is extremely important to you, give preference to the microencapsulated form of the chemical. Such a concentrate has almost no smell, but it acts in the same way as its liquid counterparts - it kills bloodsuckers quickly and on the spot.
