Anyone know of a service that will do intensive pest control? we've just moved in and besides being open during vacancy, our upstairs neighbor has informed us that the previous tenants were quite dirty (i believe this as the evidence existed!) and we seem to have a bug siutation. We've already scrubbed, placed traps, and sprayed raid, but this is beyond home remedy scope.

HELP!

Thanks!

Adopt or foster a cat or two :-)

Works for me..... word on the street (for insects/jbugs) is to stay away from my place,...as my felines will tear them apart. So I have a pretty bug free place.

Or you could call 'Rentokill'. I know they will visit homes and fumigate, etc on Hong Kong Island, although not sure if they will visit Lamma. But you can call them for a quote.

Get a box of mosquito coils.
$10 for a box of 30 I think, i use the black ones.

Close all the windows and doors and set one burning in each room.
One coil lasts for several hours.

That will kill just about any bugs.

if it's cockroaches, get a box of roach bait and scatter them around the house, particularly the bathroom and kitchen.

>>> That depends if the infestation are FLEAS, or Bed bugs, and other things, then if you do that you're bleeped. But yea, my cat back home was mean to the bugs.

We have two cats arriving shortly from the US but they both have kidney failure and can't eat protein somthis isntna solution for us! We seem to have gotten it under control. Haven't seen anything major in about 3 days. Just a random tiny ant or something. No giant roaches/centipedes
