Science of Pest Control Disasters (Bedbugs, Roaches, & Rodents)- Ep 303 of HOME DIAGNOSIS TV Series

Let's go DEEP into the science (and the annoyingly personal experiences) of 'pests' of all kinds that live in homes, plus the bug bombs and other pesticides that may have unintended consequences for your home's ecosystem and your family's health. Study the non-human occupants of our homes, and even into the homes they make for themselves in nature, using techniques we only discover much later. Learn more than you probably want to about cockroaches, bedbugs, rodents, wasps, indoor microbes, and the nuances of pest control.
