    It's incredibly refreshing to actually hear and see a pest control professional like yourself be open and refreshingly honest about the uselessness of the various products insecticide companies hustle to consumers and the expensive and damaging treatments many, though not all, exterminators use to treat and kill bed bugs! Thank you for all that you do, thank you for this great channel and thank you for all of the helpful videos you upload!

    What would be an awesome video is to show a start to finish on a bed bug job.
    In every profession technique plays a huge role… AND CROSSFIRE in a bed bug case.
    Thank you so much. I ordered 3 bottles of Crossfire, California here, just in case the state outlaws it again. Spraying today & would never attempt this without your kind educational expertise; in fact, I was scheduled for the heat treatment and cancelled after I watched just one of your videos & thankfully never applied D.E.
    Thank you again. Humanity could use a lot more honest people like yourself❣

    How do I treat a small apartment. I had my apartment treated by a professional and after 4 months I saw one. I didn't have them bad but I threw out my couches and bed. The exterminator came back and when I told him I saw one he said he would come back and just treat the baseboards but he never came back. He talked to me like he thought I was just being stupid. I just want to know how to treat it myself before I put new furniture in. This has affected me mentally 😭 and I just want to be sure I can get rid of them.

      Jason mentioned once that when a place is too cluttered, he just sprays the bed and around it, no where else in the abode. One must use Crossfire, as no other product will kill bedbugs in a extremely cluttered environment.

      Hello,
      New subscriber here
      We live in a large Assisted/Independent type living community.
      Recently there has been a few of the Independent apartments that have had bed bugs.
      The manager is having the maintenance guy's handling this!!
      Yah I know 😠
      Needless to say that they are doing a piss poor job if it!!! They are locking people out of their house for 2-3hrs, wouldn't allow a lady to take her CAT ... Locked it in the bathroom! Sent the poor woman outside in the cold without a coat because they put it in the dryer and it had to stay in there for a certain time. Then they threw away her furniture without bagging it up (it had bugs-couch) hauling it through the halls and elevator!! Then sprayed her house with Alcohol and allowed her back in after 4hrs.
      HELP
      PLEASE do a follow up to the PREVENTION video you did one year ago 🙏
      We are both unwell people 65yrs old....and terrified of getting them. Almost more afraid of the staff and what they are doing more than the bugs!!
      I pray you see this

    I have an empty rental property. I have had it sprayed along the baseboards. The problem I’m told is that with nobody in the house, the bedbugs will not come out and cross over the chemical threshold. I’m told there are products that produce CO2 or mimic people breathing? Is there a product I can put in the centre of the room to draw some of these bed bugs out?

    Hey Jason we’ve been treating with Crossfire since mid October, just did another round this past weekend and I was wondering if it was normal for the little buggers to be particularly agitated/bitey directly after a treatment? It sucks having to be the bait but we’re doing everything we can to get rid of them.

    • @meganwoehl5277
      @meganwoehl5277 7 місяців тому +9

      I've heard that this can happen! When they come in contact with the chemical, it messes with their nervous system and basically puts them in survival mode before they die...you'll see them exhibiting unusual behavior like traveling further than normal and coming out during the day. They'll also try to feed more often because that's the only thing they know how to do to stay alive. So if you notice this, I think that means it is working and they are fighting for their lives.

      One 13oz bottle makes one gallon. I can personally treat 2-4 houses off of one gallon of finished solution. This is also because I’m a professional and try not to waste pesticides. A lot of people claim to have about a half gallon left after treating their homes.
