I never want to leave my home again, I finally figured out where these little demons where hiding and had to get rid of my headboard so now I’m taking all my cloths that I stored into ziplock bags and running all my cloths through the dryer just in case there’s something still alive, this has effected me in ways I never knew, I’ll never be the same, I think I need help mentally this has messed me up, I cry all the time.

[@GreenAkersPC]

Sorry it’s been hard

[@Cristian30812]

You literally saved me so much money and time I’ve used cross fire twice and I don’t have any bites I was literally depressed and couldn’t sleep for weeks words can’t express how much you helped me Thank you

[@chanteblake3585]

Im so glad i came across your videos i have learned alot more watching them, when you mentioned the luggage in the overhead compartments that has been a concern for me , i feel like im on high alert when it comes to bedbugs due to the fact im a flight attendant i travel alot in hotels at least twice a week, ive been exposed at least two diffrent occassions also bitten several times while staying with a relative many years ago. All of my encounters made me want to be informed about them i think people take it lightly when they are initially exposed and dont realise how serious this is and how quickly they can multiply and end up with a infestation, my mother was that person and ended up spending a few thousand dollars for a professional, it seems like an epidemic with these bedbugs i know to many people who have been effected by them, thanks for the videos i get more educated by them and then i can pass the information on, i will definitely start treating my luggage.

[@BrandiSmith-i8g]

Thank you for the advice

[@GreenAkersPC]

No problem!

[@christinahaessley2636]

Thankyou again for sharing your knowledge

[@GreenAkersPC]

@@christinahaessley2636 hope this helps

[@Nezukofan823]

We couldn't figure out why nothing (including Crossfire) was working until it was discovered someone who visited often has a very severe infestation they choose to ignore. They're no longer welcome inside until they can prove they have eliminated the issue. My question is: we used CF on 10/23. We are getting stray spots here and there, but this is to be expected, right? We are finding carcasses, so that's reassuring. This has made me lose my mind for sure. I appreciate all you do for others.

[@GreenAkersPC]

@@Nezukofan823 if someone is continually bringing them in it can get extremely frustrating

[@Nezukofan823]

@ it's been so frustrating!!! We could never find the harborage (we have dealt with this before) and we started measures early due to bites, but man, it took months to hear it was the person coming over and not the treatment being ineffective. I hope this last one we did coupled with the person no longer inside does the trick.

[@PixelzBlynk]

Hey Jason I applied crossfire about 10 days ago is it normal to see more bed bug activity after treatment?

[@GreenAkersPC]

Yes

[@TheKarisean]

I live in Canada and we don’t have crossfire here. Can I use permethrin sprays on my luggage as a repellant?

[@GreenAkersPC]

It all depends on the label. I wouldn’t use it unless it specifically says you can

[@socal_blue540]

Thanks for all your good tips on the travel that’s one of my main concerns. I do see that crossfire has a aerosol can is that OK to use on my luggage then trying to mix 13 ounces of crossfire

[@GreenAkersPC]

@@socal_blue540 yes actually I recommend the aerosol for travel

[@HollyHolmgren]

The Chapin sprayer i use sprays way to much. I'm going through way too much product at a time. Can you recommend a reasobly priced fine sprayer i could order?

[@GreenAkersPC]

It’s very hard to recommend any sprayers other than a B&G because most do apply too much product

[@budgiewhisperer2738]

Hi I’m searching for some advice, I’m being bitten but whatever it is, is not visible, I’ve had my property checked for fleas and bed bugs and all clear, it’s driving me insane, I can’t get anyone out to treat my property as I can’t tell them what it is, seems to be around my I’m getting bitten, I can feel things crawling on me but when I look nothing is there yet I constantly have bites, any advice for someone in the UK?

[@rebeccapedigo9303]

If you found out someone has had Bedbugs for a year, how many times will you need to spray to totally get rid of Bedbugs? We removed the mattress and box spring and burned them and I have sprayed at 2x now a month apart with Crossfire. My 43 yr old nephew moved into my elderly parents house and drove a cab which we learned he knew they had them and brought them home to them. I have sprayed their bedroom and living room etc at least 5 different times, but his room 2x and removed and burned the box springs and mattress. How do I know if I have killed all the Bedbugs?

[@GreenAkersPC]

@@rebeccapedigo9303 I once treated a horribly infested home that had suffered for 7 years with bed bugs and I treated once

[@rebeccapedigo9303]

@GreenAkersPC , That is Great news! If I over treat with Crossfire can they build immunity to the spray?

[@GreenAkersPC]

@rebeccapedigo9303 I guess it’s possible. I haven’t had issues with resistance but it is possible

[@chiponbloc]

I am literally moving from a apartment 800 sq feet to 1500 sq feet house because they bugs are just not leaving. this will allow me to space everything out much more and spray easier. and it has hardwood floors instead of carpets...... which one is worse for bed bugs?

[@GreenAkersPC]

Bed bugs aren’t worse based on flooring. You don’t surface treat for them anyway you treat baseboards because they like to hide near the walls

[@ThomasRichardson-e3t]

I brought bedbugs back from going to hotel rooms. Even though I'm treating with crossfire, I still very much regret bringing them back with me.

[@GreenAkersPC]

They are very common these days. It’s a shame.

[@pureblood8712]

I’ll never stay in a hotel again, heck I don’t want anyone into my house again or even in my car

[@GreenAkersPC]

@ I stay in hotels all the time and never have issues with bed bugs. In fact it’s been years since I found one in a hotel

[@ThomasRichardson-e3t]

@pureblood8712 Amen to that, especially about not going to hotel rooms ever again, they seem to be prime spots for the little bloodsuckers.

[@twitchvids5094]

im really mad i brought a bed frame from facebook marketplace and now i have bed bugs it only been a week but i panic and was so stressed out so i threw my mattress and the bed frame out but i brought crossfire im gonna treat the rest of my furnitures ... do you think the bed bugs have gone far in the house im so scared ??

[@GreenAkersPC]

I would absolutely treat the house

[@twitchvids5094]

@ ok I have a basement room and that’s were the bed was do I have to go to the upstairs rooms to treat also

[@GreenAkersPC]

@ if it were my house I would treat the entire home because they can track on you throughout the house

[@pineappleproductions4750]

Do you treat your car and home once a month to keep from getting them? From what I understand Crossfire only lasts 3 weeks to a month. Is this what we have to do for life to prptect ourselves?

[@GreenAkersPC]

@@pineappleproductions4750 I do treat my house once a month but only baseboards and entry points for other bugs. I use alpine wsg for general pest control and that works pretty well to keep most all bugs away

[@sseltrek1a2b]

these things are the worst...so disgusting...

[@GreenAkersPC]

@@sseltrek1a2b I can’t argue that
