TRAPS FOR BED BUGS? - TLDR - IT'S A HUGE SCAM

[@ashdupre]

In July started getting bites while I slept blamed it on mosquitoes. The bites got worse within two weeks and turned my room upside down never found anything,no signs of bugs! I steamed and washed everything and bites continued… I found your videos, and was able to get my hands on crossfire. After 2 days ,the bites stopped! Thank you, for your advice, and knowledge! You’re a Godsend!Unfortunately, two days ago I started getting bites again… come to find out my niece and nephew who stay with me every other weekend have play dates at a friends house that has a bedbug infestation. But this time I know how to get rid of them! Thanks to you!

[@GreenAkersPC]

Glad you traced it

I found out about Crossfire because of these videos. On my salary, I had nowhere else to turn. I made some mistakes at first: diatomaceous earth, encasements, and interceptors, but once I treated the house with Crossfire as Jason demonstrated, those bedbugs disappeared after a few days. We haven't been bitten in weeks and can finally sleep at night. Oh, they came home with me from the movie theater. I had no idea that could even happen!

[@GreenAkersPC]

Nice work!

[@FranknBerry05]

Facts I used cross-fire it works like a dream I wasn't infested to bad but we all know if you don't get rid of them they'll start to multiply fast!

[@GreenAkersPC]

True

I’m from a very Rural village in Alaska and your videos saved me a bunch of trouble. I was getting ready to heat treat. Our local Tribe organization has the commercial heaters available for ppl to use and I was dreading setting that up. Mind you I’m not a professional and so many things could have gone wrong in that scenario! Again thank you!

[@GreenAkersPC]

Glad to help

I used a cheap 10 dollar sprayer and some properly mixed and applied crossfire, haven't seen any bugs in a few weeks. Still going to spray one or two more times just to be on the safe side though.

I live for the success stories my channel brings

[@reginahanson2186]

I use to live in an apartment. I vacuumed almost every day, and put diatomaceous earth down around the perimeter of each room. It was effective. Long story short, I moved and didn't bring any with me. Thank you.

I’m glad 🙂

Haven't watched your vids in a while.... i'm amazed people still are falling for these KZbin/TikTok DIY scams.

[@GreenAkersPC]

It’s the “low cost” that draws them in. But any amount of money wasted on things that don’t work is still money wasted. It’s like burning dollars in front of your face

[@nathanlamont9920]

@@GreenAkersPC I hate Bedbugs more than Roaches, I used Crossfire years ago and was done within them within 2 to 3 weeks. Granted, I didn't have an infestation.

[@Shardswords]

I’m treating a car with crossfire, i have some camping gear and plastic bins in it, do the bins need to be sprayed too? I know i need to wash the gear-wondering about non fabric items?? Thanks these are great information!

Does the severity of a bite reaction have anything to do with the size or age of the bug? What do you think about demonstrating how we should treat pet bedding? The label says "If treating a pet's living environment, spray on and around pet beds, bedding, floors, sleeping areas and furnishings," but . . . I would not spray my sheets or blankets, because they touch me. Would I want to avoid surfaces the pet touches directly?

[@GreenAkersPC]

You don’t treat anything you can wash. My pets bed is a blanket so if bed bugs were living on the pets blanket I would just wash it

[@ninalissette5988]

Hey Jason I will deff get crossfire but I have been using bedlam ? Do u have any insight on bedlam ?

[@GreenAkersPC]

One of the reasons MGK put out crossfire is because of resistance to bedlam

[@scottkingeekuk8100]

Also, I treated my beds and the perimeters of the rooms about 6 days ago. I have not seen any since the day after 1st treatment. Which was one single mid stage nymph. I just got my second bottle in the mail and as much as I want to treat again I feel like I should wait since it’s only been 6 days and the treatment works for 30 days. I see online that you may treat every 7-10 days but I’m thinking we’re ok until 30 days. I also had one single bite a day or 2 after. My 2 y/o which was getting the brunt of the bites hasn’t had a single bite since the day before I treated. Let me know what you think? Do you think I should save my Crossfire and treat in 30 days? My gut and all your videos is telling me to wait and re-treat in 30 days!

[@GreenAkersPC]

That’s what I would do being a novice

[@scottkingeekuk8100]

@@GreenAkersPC treat again? 7-10 days?

[@GreenAkersPC]

No…maybe once every 2-4 weeks but personally I only retreat if needed after 28 days sorry I misunderstood the question

[@gee3288]

Hi Jason, my Crossfire will be arriving soon. Can I spray only the bedroom (ground zero) and maybe the living room furniture if it’s a small infestation on one side of my house? Should I spray the hallway and the vacant adjacent bedroom? Will the bed bugs scatter if I spray the Crossfire? Any advice is very appreciated.

[@GreenAkersPC]

I usually recommend treating the whole house. Baseboards and beds and living room furniture this way there’s no question later if you missed anything they might have been hiding in. This will also give you a higher success rate

[@gee3288]

@@GreenAkersPC thanks so much for replying. My house is very cluttered and doesn’t have baseboards. Do I spray the walls?

[@GreenAkersPC]

You treat where the wall meets the floor if you have no baseboards as if you did

[@gee3288]

@@GreenAkersPC Is it okay to spray around the clutter?

@@GreenAkersPC I think we might’ve sprayed too much crossfire? What should I do now? Will it still work or will it worsen the infestation? I’m really scared.

And yet some p controllers put the co2 traps down, i was told i had none as none were in the traps.

[@cetkat]

​@@GreenAkersPCIs there anything you know of that would pick up an early infestation that isn't seen?

[@chiponbloc]

Please reply. I had a bb infestation for about 2.5 weeks now. I sprayed every time like crazy about 8 days ago. I’m still getting bit every few days. It’s driving me insane. I used crossfire 2 gallons mixed correctly and sprayed both rooms, couch and car. I pretty much drenched everything and carpets too. What do I do. I’m so worried…

[@chiponbloc]

Also, I sprayed the sides of my bed sheets incase they crawl up on the bed sides alongside frames, boards, carpet area and much more…

[@GreenAkersPC]

You should never ever treat bedding like sheets or covers or pillows

[@GreenAkersPC]

Also you should have only needed one gallon. Crossfire lasts a month and one gallon will do the entire house .

[@chiponbloc]

@@GreenAkersPC i did spray 8 days ago, i did the best i could in all areas in my bedroom, why am i still getting bit? i sprayed it everywhere...

[@GreenAkersPC]

Because it takes 28 days to kill a bed bug infested home and sometimes needs a second treatment after that 28 days. If you spray everywhere it won’t make things die any faster or work better. In fact there’s evidence it makes it harder to eliminate bed bugs when you just spray everywhere

@@GreenAkersPC Thanks. I recently found out my mom has bbs. I was at her house once two months ago and she was in my car several times over the months. About a month ago I sat on my couch at 11 am and one just crawled on a pillow. I killed it and ripped my couch and bed and everywhere apart looking for more. I couldn’t find another. I found your videos and immediately vacuumed everything and did the laundry and applied crossfire as directed. I treated my car as well. I saw your video to apply once every three months so I plan to but almost a month later now I see some bites on my back and one on my hand. Even though I check daily and still have not found even a bit of evidence (I had bed bugs bad 15 years ago and know what to look for) of a second one or any. I’m going to retreat as planned but I’m frustrated I still can’t find where they are. And I’m nervous about doing this treatment again with having a cat. Do you know why I might not be finding them? And how to know when they’re really gone? Can/should I treat my cats beds? Do I need to get inside of the dressers and behind the drawers? I want to be through but don’t want to do it considering I dont have an infestation that I know of and can’t even find a second one.

[@karipedersen1012]
