Here are some more information for Air Bug:

New research recently published by the US online journal Environmental Health has found "significant" links between breast cancer and cleaning products, air fresheners and mold removers. The survey, by the Silent Spring Institute in Newton, Massachusetts was based on interviews with 787 women with breast cancer and 721 healthy women, all aged between 60 and 80. "Women who reported the highest combined cleaning product use had a doubled risk of breast cancer compared to those with the lowest reported use," the report states. "Use of air fresheners and products for mold and mildew control were associated with increased risk. To our knowledge, this is the first published report on cleaning product use and risk of breast cancer."

One positive piece of information to come out of the survey was that the the use of mothballs, pesticides and insect repellents in the home had little impact. But what about the rest? There's certainly no need to panic and chuck out all your cleaning products or go crazy, eco-home organic everything. It's only possible to speak in broad, general terms but there are some everyday products sold in the cleaning aisles that I avoid inhaling if at all possible. These are:

• oven cleaners (I use a non-toxic Magic Sponge instead)

• carpet cleaners (I use the foam from biological detergent whisked up in a bowl instead)

• chlorine bleach (except in emergencies; for everyday use I choose non-toxic oxygen bleach)

• drain cleaners (I use non-toxic Soda Crystals instead)

• air fresheners (I make my own)

Sometimes it makes sense to use the tough stuff. 3% hydrogen peroxide solution is an excellent non-toxic solution for removing all sorts of stains and works especially well on blood. Non-toxic oxygen bleach will remove most stains but I also keep chlorine bleach for emergency soakings of whites when the area that needs treating hasn't responded to oxygen bleach and/or is too big for the little bottles of hydrogen peroxide solution.

Here's how to address those cleaning/air freshening/mold removing problems:

• Clean all your surfaces, hard and soft, using only water and a microfibre cloth. Microfibre cloths are my favourite cleaning product of all time. They lift grime, dust, etc in moments. You can clean your home the healthy way and save time and money as well. Don't be tempted to use microfibre cloths with a cleaning product or the gunk will clog up the fibres. They work best with just plain old water. Choose a good quality one with dense fibers that will not only clean better (efficiently removing bacteria including E-coli), but will last for years.

• Make your own non-toxic air fresheners tailored to your favorite smells.

• Tea tree oil and sodium percarbonate (pure oxygen bleach) are two non-toxic, environmentally-friendly ways of combatting mold and mildew that won't damage your health.

Get To Know Bed Bugs Physically

Bed bugs had been the most notorious and annoying parasite or insect in the 19th to the early part of the 20th century. It is believed that during and after the World War II in the United States in the 1940s, the country had totally been declared bed-bug free.

But travelers from other countries and continents where bed bugs may have continued to thrive made their return to the US possible. Usually, baggage and travel possessions serve as traveling ground or traveling spots for bed bugs from one area to another, from one country to another.

You should know what bed bugs look like, to be able to identify them. Bed bugs of course, are insects. Size matters.

Bed bugs are so tiny, that sometimes, one can hardly see them with just the naked eye. But when bed bugs mature, they look like other insects. They can be as long as a fourth of an inch. Bed bugs look like other wingless insects. Hatchlings or newly hatched bed bugs are about as small as a poppy seed. Looking or viewing bed bugs, from top to bottom, they are usually flattened. Bed bugs may sometimes look like ants or termites, except that when looked at closely, they have their own physical attributes. What color are bed bugs? Bed bugs, like humans, have different colors. It can be funny, but bed bugs look like they also have races! Bed bugs' colors usually are deep brown.

However, there are bed bugs that look like biting ants---burnt orange, while there are those that have light tan complexion to almost white.

When bed bugs are hungry, they exhibit a different color than that when they are fully fed. Bedbugs with blood in it look like balloons, but what is inside them is not air but blood. The host or victim's precious blood may look like a black mass or dark red mass inside the bed bug's tiny body. Bed bugs also do excrete. When they do, they produce small amounts of liquid that almost look like blood. Thus, beds or surfaces where bed bugs may have inhabited may be stained with tiny red spots. These spots most of the time have stinky smell, but sometimes, they are not sensed by our olfactory glands. How can bed bugs be found?

Because they are so, so tiny and are always crawling at very unnoticeable speed, bed bugs can not easily be detected or seen. During daytime, they stay within their protective habitats or hiding places. Bed bugs look like small creeping objects in crevices and small holes in the floor, the walls or even your bed. If you are observant enough, bed bugs may look or seem as if they are vampires. They may not have the physical characteristics that may scare you the way Dracula does, but they suck your blood. And they can never survive without it.

How to exterminate bedbugs? Bed bugs, like any other pests, are so persistent. You can hardly control bedbugs in your room without the professional help of pest control operators or providers. If you have been applying pesticides and harmful pest control substances in areas suspected of having these parasites, chances are greater that you will fail. It is because most of the pesticides in the market are repellant to insects. It means, when you have used one, bed bugs will not be killed. But they will be repelled or they will avoid getting at or near the surfaces or areas where the pesticide is applied. Through that, bed bugs start to wander. Thus, the spread of bed bugs is accelerated. They will start transferring from one spot to another. Or worse, from one household to another.

Thus, attempting to control bed bugs on your own may look like attempting to get rid of bed bugs in your home and ushering them into your nearest neighbor. If you have the conscience to allow that to happen, or if your neighbor will not bug or sue you, then go on. But exterminating bed bugs can entail great responsibility and consideration to others on your part. Professionals know better, so leave the job to them. Besides, you may not want to kill yourself through poisoning along with the bed bugs, right?
