Thank you for posting this. Hah, yeah here $33.20 (or even two or three times that) is a whole lot less than the $550! I was quoted for flea treatment.

I used cross fire this morning, is it OK for me to use rubbing alcohol tonight to keep them off of me and will the cross fire still kill my bedbugs.

Great video and explanations! Unfortunately, there are some cases where it doesn't work, like mine. I have asked the supplier and they advised me to apply it every 2 weeks, if I still get bites. I have been doing this for the past 2 months and there is no improvement. I am not brining them from anywhere else and I have mixed it as per your instructions, applying it on furniture, bed and cravices. Not sure why it is not working :( I feel defeated at this point :(

the reason these things are so bad is because they "violate" your home in the place you should feel the safest (your bed)...and, the fact that you feel like you can't tell people that your having this problem make you feel alone in it...

We were in contract to buy a house we really liked. Once we got the disclosures they shared that they had a bedbug infestation. The house had a peculiar smell and I researched that and learned large infestations do smell. They had it heat treated (But even the interior walls have thermal insulation which I am guessing the bugs like) and treated professionally with some chemical. We did move forward with the purchase. The house is still available. It's vacant. We wouldn't have to move in right away. Do you think we should consider this house or just move on. We like the house but we can find another one without this issue. Reno, NV BTW. Thanks!
@GreenAkersPCКүн бұрын
Personally if it were me I would treat the house but I’m an exterminator. There will be other homes and if you have it done professionally you can spend a lot of money. If I were to buy the house I think I would ask for 5-6k in escrow to pay for retreats of the bed bugs if necessary

no not usually. It might take the pesticide longer to dry but it wont change how it works on bed bugs

Literally found one on my arm while watching this. Buying crossfire asap i think 40 bucke for some of that vs the 3 thousand estimated heat treatment would be a better bet.

Luckily I don't have german roaches but I do have the bigger ones living in Florida that is no surprise....I don't like spraying a bunch of pesticides so I tried "Lemishine" foaming bathroom cleaner when I spotted one in the bathroom and it worked...it was dead within minutes ..I also used it on a wasp nest under the carport and the result was the same..dead wasps in minutes...is it the citric acid in the cleaner? Either way I'm happy with my discovery, it's cheap and multipurpose.

This guy is just pissed cause people are discovering what some have known for years. Pest control people dont have any secret magic potions or a wealth of kept secrets how to kill insects. Diatomaceous has completely rid my north carolina property of fire ants. If you dont live in the south then just know that's crazy. They are e v e r y w h e r e. If a new little hill pops up I open my 40lbs bag dip a cup in sprinkle a bit on the top and in a day or two they are gone. Dead? Probably. Gone someplace else? Who knows but me and my dog can sit in our grass for hours without those little devils stinging. (Again not from south? Fire ants deserve that name. It sucks)

The thing you fail to understand about me is I teach people how to get rid of bugs for free (last time I checked KZbin was free). I don't have a "secret magic potion" I tell people where to go to get exactly what I use. No pesticide I have in my business is Restricted use which means anyone can buy exactly what I use without a pesticide applicator license. Nothing stops my customers from showing people what I use to kill their bugs so I just show everyone what I use and how to use it. You should subscribe to my channel and learn what actually works on bugs. DE should only be used outside for bugs. What I run into nearly every day is people using DE in their home around their pets and children. DE is a silicate and isn't save for your lungs and when used indoors, in beds for bed bugs and around pet beds and other places it can cause health risks. I know people personally who have caused themselves breathing issues by over exposing themselves to DE and guess what....THEY STILL HAVE BUGS! It isn't worth the risk. I understand people are afraid of using chemical pesticides in their home but that's why I have this channel, to educate the public on how to use them in a safe and effective manner rather than hiring someone like me.

Thank you for such a long and very informative video about mice. I really appreciate learning all of that information. I'm going outside tomorrow and will be walking around the perimeter of my house with a pen. I knew they could fit through small openings, but didn't realize they could get through that small. I have issues with mice in the house right now, and I just want to stop them from coming in. I've already found two main spots they are getting in, but they keep chewing through whatever I stuff there. I recently got some copper mesh, and I'm hoping it'll work as nicely as your steel wool. I've got a cat for the inside mice, and she's pretty good at getting them, considering she lost all but two teeth....lol. She gums them to death, I think. But she enjoys hunting, teeth or not. I am subscribing to your channel, I love the longer videos people post filled with valuable information....I hate the short videos that cut information and leave you guessing. Thanks again for all the information. ☺️

Jason, is this product still as effective as it was 2-4 years ago? I keep reading that pesticides have a limited timeframe of use and then you have to change it up. Is that true and is it true of Crossfire? I've had pros spraying Temprid FX and alternating it (2 weeks inbetween) with Crossfire self-applied. We're just over 3 months into this horror and not seeing signs anymore, but may still be getting some bites. Hard to tell... I'm planning to spray my house 2x/month for a while and then go to 1x a month even if I see nothing. Mentally scarred by these things.

My roommate who is the head of the household noticed there were a lot of bed bugs all over the living room, and his other roommates bedroom. He said if it gets worse, he would resort to bombing the place. But that's when I got Crossfire. Because I tried using other "earth based" stuff, and it doesn’t work and leaves a foul lingering odor. But this stuff really goes directly to work, and the next morning, there were hardly any bedbugs left!! Thank you! Now I won't have to worry about having someone getting that fogger! Lol.
