You should use Windex and borax for bed bugs at the same time. However mixing them together is not the solution. Best is to use them separately. You can also check Tea tree essential Oil for Bed Bugs: ua-cam.com/video/N33hyyubdBk/v-deo.html
Yes, you can kill bed bugs with Windex---if you spray it directly on them. It kills upon contact. You can spray them with lots of things, even soap and water, or you can just squash them with your hands. Every one you kill is one less bed bug that can bite you. This video concludes that you should combine the Windex with something that gets rid of the entire infestation, something like food grade Diatomaceous earth.
You're absolutely right that you can use common household products like Windex to deal with bed bugs on the spot. It's a practical approach for getting rid of those pesky critters when you come across them. I agree to truly get the upper hand on a bed bug infestation, you should combine contact-killing methods like Windex with long-term solutions. Food-grade Diatomaceous earth is an excellent addition to your arsenal. It works by dehydrating and eventually killing bed bugs over time as they come into contact with it. Here are a few additional steps you can take: Thorough Cleaning: Start by thoroughly cleaning and decluttering your living space. This can help you identify hiding spots and reduce the number of places bed bugs can hide. Vacuuming: Regularly vacuum your carpets, upholstery, and mattress seams. Be sure to dispose of the vacuum bag or clean the canister outside to prevent bed bugs from escaping. Use Encasements: Invest in bed bug-proof mattress and box spring encasements to trap any remaining bed bugs and prevent new ones from infesting your bedding. As well as interceptors cups. Thanks!
Yes I had an experience with Windex and it can be useful to kill bed bugs, however it should be used with other treatments for best results. In my case it was diatomaceous earth. Other glass cleaner or window cleaners can also do the job I think
It's interesting to hear about your experience with using Windex to get rid of bed bugs. Windex and similar glass cleaners may indeed have some efficacy against bed bugs when they come into direct contact with the pests. The alcohol content in some of these cleaners can kill bed bugs on contact. Combining it with diatomaceous earth, as you mentioned, is a good choice, as it can be an effective, non-toxic option for bed bug control. Additionally, you should consider methods such as thorough cleaning, vacuuming, interceptor cups, encasing yourbed, laundering bedding and clothing in hot water. Good luck!
I got an infection of bed bugs in a RV that I bought, I used two things that have worked sensationally, 1- Aerogard personal insect repellent containing 40% Deet, which I sprayed all over the van, including importantly, the mattresses, walls and all surfaces. 2- Diatomaceous earth which I puffed everywhere inside the RV From the first (heavy) spraying of the Aerogard, the bugs stopped biting me and this gave the Diatomaceous Earth time to finish the bugs off. My puppy was a great indicator of the effectiveness of the combined treatments, he was driven absolutely mad by the bugs, after the first heavy spraying of the Aerogard, he slept through the whole night peacefully, instead of habitually getting up and down to move spots. That said, I never found any bite marks on him, I believe it was actually the smell of the bed bugs that was causing his problem. Yes, it was a heavy bed bug infestation as I caught one of the blighters and had it identified by a expert.
Dealing with a bed bug infestation in your RV can be a frustrating experience, but your successful approach is both informative and reassuring. By using Aerogard Personal Insect Repellent with 40% DEET to create a barrier and Diatomaceous Earth to dehydrate the bed bugs, you effectively addressed the issue. Well done. The interesting observation about your puppy's behavior changing, possibly due to the smell of the bed bugs, is definitely interesting. Bed bugs are nocturnal, blood-feeding pests that reproduce rapidly and can create a terrible experience in close environment such as RV. Your experience provides valuable insights for others dealing with bed bug problems in such vehicles, offering practical steps to get rid of them. Thanks! How long did the treatment take by the way?
