What Smells Will Keep Palisades Bed Bugs Away?

It’s safe to say that no property owner wants to experience an infestation of bed bugs. These nocturnal pests spread quickly, and that’s why being proactive in your prevention efforts is a good idea. The good news is there are natural methods of repelling bed bugs, like using scents to keep them away.

Here are some smells that keep Palisades bed bugs away:

• Rubbing alcohol – Not only do bed bugs hate the smell, but it can dry out their bodies and kill them.
• Essential oils – The intense odor of certain essential oil (lavender, tea tree, blood orange) drives away bed bugs.
• Diatomaceous earth – DE powder has a pungent aroma and causes bed bugs to become dehydrated and die.
• Lemon – Strong citrus smells are unpleasant for bed bugs, and it drives them away from the area.
• Pepper – The strong smell of powdered pepper sprinkled around harborage areas keeps bed bugs away.

While the repelling power of scent is undeniable, there is no method of bed bug control as effective or reliable as ongoing bed bug control services from pest professionals.
