Hi, My place the bugs are crawling ones.. and yup.. very very small.. smaller than ants etc.. that time a lot on the kitchen top.. then so use insecticide spray to kill them.. then left it there till the next day then clean up.. For two days so far so gd.. then third day they start to come back again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Greycat 0 Report post Posted May 28, 2008 Harlow... I oso got see the small bugs u guys toking abt...nt sure if it is the same type though. its almost fine like powder! Den I saw them in my HHS (where the shelves r) if I accidentally drop sme of my girl's dogfood-powder. Next morn, they will be ard the foodspots...oso dunno wat they r...its frm lights meh? Xlan, I got try the $3 paper thing b4 but I dont put in my kitchen cabinets as I thot insecticide thing shdnt mix wif food items (dry foods in my cabinets). But I do use it in my toilet cabinets. Very useful as toilet is "wet" area, smetimes will haf crawlies (my hair stands up at the mention of them)...now after I put the paper, no mre crawlies liao!

xlan 0 Report post Posted May 28, 2008 ic.. thanks greycat for the review.. but i only found those tiny crawlies in kitchen.. at the lower cabinet.. so i was wondering.. if it is really safe to put there? since my sauces/cooking oil/pans & woks etc are all there.. probably the reason y these irritating bugs haunting ard this corner.. i worry if these bugs would bite my baby gal.. since she always follow me into the kitchen n sit/lie on the floor accompanying me while i cook/wash.. these buggies really such an irritating n headache issue.. sianz..

h4happy 1 Report post Posted May 28, 2008 Also remember to use insecticide chalk for all the edges and lines...that will prevent any pest crawling around. I also saw bugs crawling while I vacuum, I just suck them up! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
