Man, you have no idea how helpful I am finding your videos. I have the unlucky circumstance of having BOTH bedbugs and roaches. All I gotta do now is get up the money to buy the pesticides you recommend. I have tried steaming, vaccuming, other sprays, and powders, all to no avail on my bed bug issue. I do appreciate your know-how, and I just wanted to say thank you.
Just want to let you know that you are a very kind soul to help people! I will most definitely share, like, comment, recommend & etc. your videos to others!
I just wanna say that crossfire does in fact work. I sprayed it about a month ago and had a pretty serious infestation (especially in the living room due to me sleeping in there more than my room) and after I sprayed it all throughout my home, I noticed almost within the first week that there were little to no bedbugs. I haven't noticed any bedbugs since the second week of application.
How did you use as little as 1 gallon of solution for the whole home? With other poisons, I needed at least 15 litres of solution, to cover every inch of the house.
I have a question, you said you should treat every crack, but I am not sure where our house are infected. Should I treat every room and every crack?thans
Hey I'm 7 months pregnant and my teen had a friend over alot this summer and now her room is bad. I haven't found them anywhere else but still wanna treat the whole house. Is it safe for me to spray this and be in the room while we're doing it?
I would say it's not ok to have contact with it. BUT - there's PPE (personal protective equipment). Do what medical workers do to avoid viruses & you should be able to safely spray with pregnancy or other health problems. Avoid skin contact and breathing it in.
Thanks for the video! I do have 2 questions though. I have an elevation bed for one person. So not a queen or a king. I live in Denmark and I don't really know what size you would call that in American English. I came home from Tennessee the 30th of August and yesterday I found 1 bed bug, that was on it's way to bite me. I killed it before it could bite me. I've taken serious precautions and washed every bit of clothing at 90° celsius and I'm educating myself on your channel. So my questions are: 1. How do I treat an elevation bed with a memory foam mattress? 2. How worried should I be, when I've only found one and hasn't seen any other signs of them? And thank you so much for all the information you're sharing! It is very much appreciated.
Love this guy, and love your comments/questions. Are you referring to a "Murphy Bed"? Where it folds up into the wall? Or a "bunk bed"? And, I wonder about a Tempurpedic foam mattress, as well. Hopefully, this is so long after you've rid yourself, but if you know the answers now, I'd be much obliged for you to share your knowledge.
Go Army thanks for your service and helping this vet no one wants to live with begs it's very annoying and can be stressful and give most lots of anxiety
I was watching most of your videos and didn’t find anything about how to treat my shoes.. Specifically a winter shoes. I think they are in material in shoes. Im expecting crawling sensation in some of them. Any advice?
After the apt building exterminator sprays, when could i use crossfire? Or how far out from when they come again can i use crossfire because the spay they are using isnt working at all. I know that chemicals should not be mixed but i have to get rid of the bedbugs. They said the only place the bugs are is in my bedroom. Unfortunately i live in my bedroom. I have packed everything in storage bins but how do i make sure there are no bugs in the bins before i duck tape them up and seal and move them out. I know i could store them for several yrs, but i need the things in the bins.
I have the same problem. I'm going to be spraying the inside of the bins every two weeks for a couple of months, and then not touching them for at least a yr. Anything I can't live without for that long, I'll have to leave out and just hope that any bugs will leave the items in search of food, and end up walking through the Crossfire.
Now I want to throw away my box spring, I found a single bed bug after a really thorough search and the only thing I didn’t do was spray the inside of my box spring
Im learning alot from you, currently working in a place where we have a few room infested with these pests. Im dealing with it myself as they have paid nearly £2000 on Heat treatment..... im very concerned about taking them home with me, any advice on that .
The $10 plastic HDX sprayer doesn’t have a fine mist setting so I had to retreat too many times. Can’t seem to be able to just buy wands so make a good choice buying one.
Hello Jason I have a question besides the seams and crevices should I also spray crossfire on the top surface and bottom of mattresses as well as couch pillows and seat cushions? any advice would help. Thank you
Your videos are really helpful but I have them in my couch. Usually where I sleep. I think I'm about 3 weeks in now with bedbugs. I'm in Canada and want to try crossfire. Can I apply it on my couch everywhere I can get to anyway. Thanks
Curious to know how this infestation turned out. How many treatments were required? That box spring looked really bad. I know it's normally not recommended to throw out furniture but that may have been past the point where I would consider sealing it up and tossing it.
Hello :) You are a specialist, so I wanted to ask you a question. According to the manufacturer's instructions, crossfire cannot be applied using an ULV fogger. Can you explain to me why? The composition of the agent is similar to professional agents used by companies with ULV foggers. I perform antibacterial and antiviral disinfection myself using a fogger. I know it is the most effective method. So why can't this agent be used in ulv foggers? It should be most effective for this application.
ULV foggers would be the worst application for bed bugs ever. If you use them regularly you should know that crack and crevice is the most successful way to treat for bed bugs. Call MGK and ask them why they don’t allow it.
Jason, please tell me if I can use a regular garden one gallon sprayer that was using for weed killer outside. it is made of clear plastic. I would rather not have to buy an expensive one like yours. Mine is the size of yours with a long sprayer like yours. If anyone has a good answer to this please reply..I will try listening in on your live program this Thursday at 9:30 this week if I can't get an answer here. thank u.
Do I have to be a paid subscriber to join ur live session on Thursday at 9:30 pm ET. I want to ask a question about if it’s OK to spray the crossfire on a mattress or box spring that has been sealed in an encasement cover? My husband put them on 2 beds last week & does not want to take them off. The bed bugs are still biting me (not him)! Our daughters family of 7 r coming in 10 days to stay at our house for 2 weeks at Christmas! Her husband will freak out if he hears we have bed bugs!! Please help! I ordered the crossfire on your channel, but it hasn’t arrived yet.
So what do you do for say something like a large pillow for a chair or recliner? It's like a mini-mattress, you can't wash it, and you can't spray crossfire on it?
@@GreenAkersPC do you spray those completely? Even the surface where you sit on? Cause I know people say you shouldn’t spray the surface of mattress where you sleep on so I figured it’s the same with something like a bean bag chair?
Can I put crossfire on my mattress? You showed us doing it on a box spring but what about the mattress? Also, can I put it on my carpets, inside light fixtures, baseboards, wooden furniture, ect? Please give more insight about where is safe to treat with crossfire. I will try anything at this point. They have invaded my couch that I had custom made I would be so devastated to throw it out but anything is worth it to get rid of these pets 😭 I recently got back from mexico & must of picked up a hitch hicker on the trip bc ever since I got back, we have them now. I've been fighting these bugs so bad nonstop everyday & still I can not sleep at all. Bought a professional steamer + big zap bag, tons of DE, 3 gallons of 99%alcohol, Oregano & clove oil, carpet cleaner, steam mop, bagged all my belongings, treated every crack & crevace in the house with steam, tried everything... still have them. Really need relief.
It seems like they just don’t want you spraying anything that you will wash in the sink or washing machine and contaminate the water supply. So stuff like mattress and furniture should be okay to spray if the stuff doesn’t damage the actual material.
Jason mentioned this in one of very old long time ago bed bug live show that aerosols is less effective. And you need A LOT of cans to spray your entire place.
How exactly can I use 1 gallon of solution for an entire apartment? I read that 1 gallon is enough to cover a whole apartment, but how to apply so sparingly? With my last poison, I used at least 15 litres of solution. Please, help! Thanks a lot!
Weve had bedbugs in our apt. But it has no carpet. Only place u could probably treat is our couch and bed and maybe walls around bed or couch and recliner
I sprayed crossfire heavy. Mixed properly per instructions, waited 2 days sprayed again. Slept in my bedroom. woke up bit to hell calling professional soon, gonna cost me 800.00. There goes my famalies Christmas.
It takes 4-6 weeks for all the bugs to die off. No bug will die instantly from any pesticide. It takes time. Most people understand that an aspirin won’t make a headache disappear instantly and pesticides won’t make bed bugs disappear instantly either.
Hey bud I've been watching you for a while, I've been dealing with these things for a while, bought 3 bottles of crossfire, I'm curious though, I've been spraying everything and washing everything but what about when you put your sheets back on should you spray them to
@@GreenAkersPC ok thank you for your expertise,I guess I'm just confused about that part, because won't they just find away to get on your top sheets and comforter.thanks again, I've never heard of bed bugs before this happened
I am going to be treating my living room with the first application of Crossfire. My cushions are sewn into the couch, with pleats and seams. Everything is sewn in, the backing doesnt come off, etc. It is quite heavy, but my daughter and I are going to tackle this job. I really dont want to throw my couch away, but they are sure in there. I may be able to open it up from the underneath. If you have any suggestions I would so much appreciate it, thank you.
SAME HERE IN MY LOVE SEAT LOTS OF PLACES TO HIDE IN THIS DAMN COUCH BUT I HAVE MITES YOU CANT SEE THEM YOU HAVE TO FEEL THEM ! IM LOSING MY MIND NOW I NEED A DR. 😱😩😩🤮🤮😭
Man im so tired of these things im to the point im just going to live in my car I've tried everything and im at a breaking point i feel bad for the rest of my family because im just going to leave i just cant keep living like this so i have decided when i get my license im just going to leave my family cant afford an exterminator and they refuse to try because they think they can do it themselves but i dont think it is this has been hell
Jason, I hope you can help me. I saw the info on your course last night when it was offered at an incredible discount but didn't have my wallet with me. I want to sign up now and take it today before I start my treatment at my mom's house. Can you please extend the discount?
The video I was looking for! I have them in 3 bedrooms and they got into my couch as well so I was wondering if I can spray my couch. I do wonder though, I have put mattresses and box springs in encasements with no plans to remove them for at least two years! Should I remove the encasements and spray them or will the encasements be enough? And should I spray the encasements
@@GreenAkersPC Thank you! It always bothers me when people recommend putting on encasements during an active infestation. I don't want to risk puncturing that thing after you get the bugs under control and releasing another batch 3 months later. Just treat the mattress and box spring directly and after they're gone, encase them so you can more easily inspect for new activity.
Hey guys just sprayed Crossfire for my infestation in my rooms, been dealing with them for about a year or two. We been cleaning and trying every product but no success. I see that people comment about ordering them but they don’t update on the effectiveness when they used it. Comment on my post and I’ll get back to you guys after a month even if you see my comment years from now I’ll update you guys as well. I do have 2 bottles, one was enough for my living room and my 2 rooms. I’ll will use the second bottle in about a month, and I’ll also comment in that so comment and stay tuned. (Pray for me)
@@seymourbutts7078 Worked perfectly, no bed bugs since we applied it, the first 3 days we saw the last remaining ones dying but a week in we no longer had any problems, also we bought white sheets to moniter for any marks they leave but no signs at all, we have a second bottle that we really dont need since they are gone but we are going to flip the house again and reapply just to use it and well its better to be safe than sorry, if i see any during the house flip, Ill update but honestly this worked like a charm and none seen.
What is the effect of using a plastic sprayer from lowes as opposed to the 100- couple hundred dollar ones on Amazon? Will it be just as effective of a treatment?
That’s not true. Framed walls consist of 2x4 wood studs, insulation and sheet rock. Just because a house has a brick outside doesn’t mean it isn’t made of wood.
What about if you have all of the signs but can't find the bed bugs? Okins couldn't even find the nest either. I'm tired of not sleeping and itching like chiggers. >.
@@GreenAkersPC he said he won't treat till he sees them. And none of the others have gotten back to me to come out. So.. im just kinda stuck with bed bugs. And it sucks bc this week is my sons and mine birthdays and now we have to change locations
I’m so sorry, I’m going through something similar. Inspections yielded no conclusive evidence so they won’t treat. But I’m getting bitten like crazy and have found some possible nymph. Going to try crossfire asap now as this has been going on for close to a year now. Hope you’ve found some resolution to things!
Wrll, daggone, jason, if i still lived in troutville, id call you. But, ive moved back to charleston, wv. Not exactly the best thing to watch at bedtime.
It shows how safe the pesticides are that I use that’s for sure. This was in the infancy of my business and I didn’t have a uniform at the time but I always follow PPE. Try not to judge on appearance and more on the job performed
@Green Akers Pest Control LLC i NEED YOUR HELP AND ADVICE!!!! So what is special about crossfire. Crossfire is just another insecticide spot treatment as far as I can tell. I'm getting eating alive by bed bugs here in my home. I have a spot treatment guy that comes over all the time and says they will be gone by the end of the day. He never gets results at all. He has used delta dust and many other chemicals that also don't work. At this point I'm willing to risk any adverse health effects of Vikane gas because the bed bug bites are causing me to itch so much I now have cellulitis which is a skin infection. i HAVE BED BUG BITES ALL OVER MY BODY! YOU ALSO DON'T LIKE HEAT TREATMENTS ETHER . SO WHAT THE HELL IS THE SOUTIOTION. I live In California and have used Vikane gas for termites back in the day and never died or got sick. I feel That tenting is still my best option at the point and I'm at the end of my rope with this. i HOPE THAT YOU READ THIS COMMENT AND RESPOND TO IT PLEASE. i HAVE REACHED OUT to other exterminators and all they want to do is throw away all my furniture and not pay for it.
Crossfire is a unique pesticide. Delta dust is garbage for nearly every bug in existence. I don’t recommend most pesticides because they don’t work. I’ve been killing bed bugs for over 23 years and have never used a pesticide quite like crossfire. My channel is here to inform people the risks and benefits of using different pesticides. If vikane is what you want to use then by all means it will kill off the bugs. There is a risk in it though.
@@GreenAkersPC Alright Me and my wife are going to try crossfire and fallow your video instructions to fight theses bastard bugs. Thanks for responding. I'm just irritated with the exterminator that we have been using. He has given us zero results after months of treatment. I apologize if I sounded grumpy in the last comment.

So grateful for finding you months ago. Waiting on my crossfire orders now and watching all your videos on how to so I'm ready when it gets here
How much "Crossfire" concentrate do you usually end up using for houses of about this size?
Great videos 😊 If small crevices are missed, won't any bugs that are hiding in there die when they come out to eat and cross the residue?
I would definitely think so. After all they do gotta come out to eat 😊. That’s why I’m gonna do a second spray after my initial spray tomorrow

I believe on the crossfire label, it says you can spray the mattress directly, just don't SOAK it
Have an update? Did you successfully treat them?
It seems like they just don’t want you spraying anything that you will wash in the sink or washing machine and contaminate the water supply.
So stuff like mattress and furniture should be okay to spray if the stuff doesn’t damage the actual material.
Does the crossfire aerosol work just as well as the concentrate and does it have the same 30 day residual.
Because IGRs have been proven not to work on bed bugs
@@GreenAkersPCwhy because do you think IGRs don’t work on fleas?
Jason, are you using a pin stream or fan spray from your B&G sprayer?
Both just depends on the area I need to treat

@@GreenAkersPC ok thank you for your expertise,I guess I'm just confused about that part, because won't they just find away to get on your top sheets and comforter.thanks again, I've never heard of bed bugs before this happened
They have to go somewhere after they bite
I am going to be treating my living room with the first application of Crossfire. My cushions are sewn into the couch, with pleats and seams. Everything is sewn in, the backing doesnt come off, etc. It is quite heavy, but my daughter and I are going to tackle this job. I really dont want to throw my couch away, but they are sure in there. I may be able to open it up from the underneath. If you have any suggestions I would so much appreciate it, thank you.
SAME HERE IN MY LOVE SEAT LOTS OF PLACES TO HIDE IN THIS DAMN COUCH BUT I HAVE MITES YOU CANT SEE THEM YOU HAVE TO FEEL THEM ! IM LOSING MY MIND NOW I NEED A DR. 😱😩😩🤮🤮😭
I need this info as well
Update. Did it work?
Man im so tired of these things im to the point im just going to live in my car I've tried everything and im at a breaking point i feel bad for the rest of my family because im just going to leave i just cant keep living like this so i have decided when i get my license im just going to leave my family cant afford an exterminator and they refuse to try because they think they can do it themselves but i dont think it is this has been hell
I understand, and if EVERYONE isn't on board with keeping up, then they're working against your efforts too. So hurtful.
I've been unemployed for two years. I'm living off my savings. Do you have any advice for someone living in Philadelphia, PA?
Crossfire
Serious question: are the bed protectors worth buying?
No they don’t work for anything except protection to keep a mattress from getting infested. If you already have bed bugs they are useless
@@GreenAkersPC thank you!
Jason, I hope you can help me. I saw the info on your course last night when it was offered at an incredible discount but didn't have my wallet with me. I want to sign up now and take it today before I start my treatment at my mom's house. Can you please extend the discount?
Those discounts are run by udemy and I have no control over them. I only get so many discounts I’m allowed to run per year
Ok. Thanks.
The video I was looking for! I have them in 3 bedrooms and they got into my couch as well so I was wondering if I can spray my couch. I do wonder though, I have put mattresses and box springs in encasements with no plans to remove them for at least two years! Should I remove the encasements and spray them or will the encasements be enough? And should I spray the encasements
I would remove the encasements and don’t put them back unless you’ve proven not to have anymore bed bugs
@@GreenAkersPC Thank you! It always bothers me when people recommend putting on encasements during an active infestation. I don't want to risk puncturing that thing after you get the bugs under control and releasing another batch 3 months later. Just treat the mattress and box spring directly and after they're gone, encase them so you can more easily inspect for new activity.
Hey guys just sprayed Crossfire for my infestation in my rooms, been dealing with them for about a year or two.
We been cleaning and trying every product but no success. I see that people comment about ordering them but they don’t update on the effectiveness when they used it. Comment on my post and I’ll get back to you guys after a month even if you see my comment years from now I’ll update you guys as well.
I do have 2 bottles, one was enough for my living room and my 2 rooms.
I’ll will use the second bottle in about a month, and I’ll also comment in that so comment and stay tuned.
(Pray for me)
Best of luck to you! Hope the Crossfire works out!
Any update pal?
@@seymourbutts7078 Worked perfectly, no bed bugs since we applied it, the first 3 days we saw the last remaining ones dying but a week in we no longer had any problems, also we bought white sheets to moniter for any marks they leave but no signs at all, we have a second bottle that we really dont need since they are gone but we are going to flip the house again and reapply just to use it and well its better to be safe than sorry, if i see any during the house flip, Ill update but honestly this worked like a charm and none seen.
@@TisforTurtle Thanks, worked perfect.
No more bed bugs after battling them for over 2 years
@@Owlcrafter hi, still no problems??
What is the worst infestation-roaches, bed bugs, rats or something else?
Roaches are the worst.
What is the effect of using a plastic sprayer from lowes as opposed to the 100- couple hundred dollar ones on Amazon? Will it be just as effective of a treatment?
What I used. Complete success! Crossfire is the shit.
Cemize what type of sprayer did you use?
@@Cemizedid you use the same sprayer as his?
Can/do you guys spray around the baseboard/walls as well?
Not walls just baseboards
Do you recommend spraying the seams of the mattress prior to putting a mattress encasement on?
Do not use mattress encasements
@@GreenAkersPC why shouldn't you use those??
Because they don’t work and cause more problems.
@@GreenAkersPC can you please expand on this? Thank you
Please explain. I was told by the pest control company to use them!
hello. my first time going to use crossfire . can i spray the top of my mattress ?
is there an update on this, please?
After I spray my room, bed, and mattress should I put a mattress casing
No. Don’t do that
Bro I'm about to give up
Hi I've had a professional spray for $1300 and sprayed the second time myself. Can I spray a 3rd time just for the peace of mind?
In a few weeks if you want for peace of mind and prevention
@@GreenAkersPC may I ask how can I be sure when they are gone? I can't seem to find an answer to that question.
AMEN 🙏
One thing, when you pulled those couch flaps you potentially threw bed bugs across the living room
No I didn’t. Who taught you that?
I saw your comment about not using mattress covers. What if we have already applied them? So will these not keep the bugs in it?
No they don’t work
OMG! Ugh...phfff! Seems they ought not be able to sell stuff that doesn't work, ya know? Not fair! Costs so much as it is...
Walls are mostl brick and sheetrock
That’s not true. Framed walls consist of 2x4 wood studs, insulation and sheet rock. Just because a house has a brick outside doesn’t mean it isn’t made of wood.
@@GreenAkersPC true
What about if you have all of the signs but can't find the bed bugs? Okins couldn't even find the nest either. I'm tired of not sleeping and itching like chiggers. >.
Sometimes it’s just such a mild infestation that the bugs can’t be found. Doesn’t mean the treatment shouldn’t be done though
@@GreenAkersPC he said he won't treat till he sees them. And none of the others have gotten back to me to come out. So.. im just kinda stuck with bed bugs. And it sucks bc this week is my sons and mine birthdays and now we have to change locations
Just buy the crossfire and spray yourself, read the directions and follow them to the T
@@stephaniesmith91ss update?
I’m so sorry, I’m going through something similar. Inspections yielded no conclusive evidence so they won’t treat. But I’m getting bitten like crazy and have found some possible nymph. Going to try crossfire asap now as this has been going on for close to a year now. Hope you’ve found some resolution to things!
💥💥💥🙏🏻
Wrll, daggone, jason, if i still lived in troutville, id call you. But, ive moved back to charleston, wv.
Not exactly the best thing to watch at bedtime.
I’ve serviced many homes in troutville lol
Some say u have to strip ur bed for treatment. Some say u don't have to strip ur bed
Those who said you don’t have to strip and treat the bed lie
@@GreenAkersPC its easier if u strip bed. Saves exterminator time
At that point. Spray and throw it out.
Imagine spraying professionally, on camera with no mask or suit.
It shows how safe the pesticides are that I use that’s for sure. This was in the infancy of my business and I didn’t have a uniform at the time but I always follow PPE. Try not to judge on appearance and more on the job performed
So you have to pay $10 for a video to see how to eliminate them?
What are you talking about? UA-cam is free…have you even tried looking around my channel at all ??
@Green Akers Pest Control LLC
i NEED YOUR HELP AND ADVICE!!!!
So what is special about crossfire. Crossfire is just another insecticide spot treatment as far as I can tell. I'm getting eating alive by bed bugs here in my home. I have a spot treatment guy that comes over all the time and says they will be gone by the end of the day. He never gets results at all. He has used delta dust and many other chemicals that also don't work. At this point I'm willing to risk any adverse health effects of Vikane gas because the bed bug bites are causing me to itch so much I now have cellulitis which is a skin infection. i HAVE BED BUG BITES ALL OVER MY BODY!
YOU ALSO DON'T LIKE HEAT TREATMENTS ETHER . SO WHAT THE HELL IS THE SOUTIOTION. I live In California and have used Vikane gas for termites back in the day and never died or got sick. I feel That tenting is still my best option at the point and I'm at the end of my rope with this. i HOPE THAT YOU READ THIS COMMENT AND RESPOND TO IT PLEASE. i HAVE REACHED OUT to other exterminators and all they want to do is throw away all my furniture and not pay for it.
Crossfire is a unique pesticide. Delta dust is garbage for nearly every bug in existence. I don’t recommend most pesticides because they don’t work. I’ve been killing bed bugs for over 23 years and have never used a pesticide quite like crossfire. My channel is here to inform people the risks and benefits of using different pesticides. If vikane is what you want to use then by all means it will kill off the bugs. There is a risk in it though.
@@GreenAkersPC Alright Me and my wife are going to try crossfire and fallow your video instructions to fight theses bastard bugs. Thanks for responding. I'm just irritated with the exterminator that we have been using. He has given us zero results after months of treatment. I apologize if I sounded grumpy in the last comment.
@@gokuhawks14 Did it work?
