i have had bouts of bed bug and cockroach cohabitants for the past few years living in urban rental apartments .. at times i have been overwhelmed and had to endure countless fumigations with pesticides from store-bought to landlord professional routine services ... all to no avail ...however, i have found a bizarre home remedy that surprised me as much as it surprised the colonies that hatch ... isopropyl alcohol ... in a spray bottle .. kills them dead and it is quasi healthy ... to inhale as fumes .. compared to pesticides ... i dunno how i figured this out but nonetheless ... upon contact with a splash of rubbing alcohol, the bed bug immediately goes into rigor mortis ... and with the rare cockroaches .. they seem to scurry not to far from the contact of the spray .. and then go into their rigor mortis ... it is baffling ... because if rubbing alcohol is good for wounds and infections ... could these vermin be an extension of infections that nest alongside of us like fleas ? .. i don't have a kitten or puppy so for flea removal .. i am not too sure if the rubbing alcohol trick works for fleas ... i am scared to post this comment because i fear the pesticide people over on wall street may hunt me down for providing a more economical route to killing these kinda pests with vapours .. and that isn't so stinky .. or bad for inhaling
