NPMA Southwestern Conference in Albuquerque

NPMA Southwestern Conference in Albuquerque

Hydrex Pest Control attended this NPMA event.  There were many informative speakers discussing topics such as green pest management, bird work and wildlife management.

However, the two hottest topics on the conference floor were bed bugs and localized treatment options for drywood termites.

Bed bugs have become a serious national and international problem.  Pest control professionals are finding that many of the methods previously used to eliminate these pests are becoming ineffective.  The bed bugs are becoming resistant to the effects of several of the most widely used chemicals. 

Heat treatments and whole house fumigations seem to be the most reliable methods for eradicating these pests.  Conventional treatments are effective when administered by properly trained pest control professionals combined with cooperation from the home owner. Call a reputable pest professional if you suspect you have a problem with bedbugs
