I would suggest a spray, ecofriendly, safe, and reccomended. You should look up a few sprays, and ask a few people at the store your buying it from which one's the best for you. Plus if you have ants, a natural way of getting rid of them is by putting salt near the entrence of where there coming out. ;)

It would help you greatly to know what you're dealing with - ie what kind of insect(s)? Try examining and/ or catching some in a jar & try to ID them. A magnifying glass couldn't hurt, neither could a book out of the library with illustrations and/ or color plates. If we're talking about tiny bugs try vacuuming as much as possible. I'd try covering furniture with slipcovers, sheets, blankets & washing them frequently & see if that helps or not Your new found pals are only in & on furniture? Doubtful...but possible. Make sure of this & if not you may need to fumigate the entire room, apt or whatever depending on the severity of the problem See the sources for more info.

Baking soda can dry out bugs.
