Bed Bug Life Cycle

There is nothing pleasant about chiggers and no one wants to be colse to them twice. Unfortunately, if you live where chiggers live it is most difficult to avoid them, completely. It is even inherent to start your very own chigger chigger colony in your home.

If you are suffering from reoccurring chigger attacks and you have not been surface lately it could just mean you are now sharing your home with a chigger colony. By the way, this colony will only get bigger.

Chiggers will make themselves to home in your bed, in your sock drawer, in your underwear drawer, in your couch and in your carpet. And in those house plants you think are so pretty.

Chiggers like to hang out where it is warm and moist. So it is inherent you have some conditions colse to your home perimeter that is hosting chiggers. They could and can assuredly migrate from there into your home.

Look colse to your home for piles of branches and leaves where chiggers could be living. Also look for bushes growing on the dark side of your home with lots of leaves colse to them. Clean these areas away from you home to discourage chiggers from migrating into the house.

Your Home Chigger treatment Remedy: If you surmise your house plants are contaminated it is time to move them outdoors for a bit of sunlight. First chiggers do not like living in the sun.

This time will allow the normal life cycle of the chigger to run it's course.

Spray the plant with diluted dish soap and vegetable oil (4 tablespoons of dish soap and 4 teaspoons of vegetable oil per gallon of water) or diluted Safe Solutions, Inc. Enzyme Cleaner with Peppermint (1 - 2 oz. Per gallon of water).

Do this every week for three weeks and again before challenging the plant back indoors.

If you do not have any house plants and you keep suffering from reoccurring attacks, it is time to completely wash your bedding and your socks and underwear in very hot water with soap.

I hope this has been helpful to you in getting rid of chiggers from you home.
