    I used the Crossfire, DE and Interceptors, mattress and pillow encasements . It's been several weeks with no bugs being seen. But I'll be checking where I found the nests on a monthly basis for the next few months. The bed has no boxsprings but rather a motorized, upholstered platform. And those bug bastards set up shop in the folds and creases of the upholstered area. It really takes a tedious and repeated look at all areas where they can hide.

    I have an unrelated question but I don't know how to word it. I ordered crossfire and I treated my home with it. I ordered it on your recommendation which has most definitely been a tremendous help I have NOT seen any bed bugs since using but you said in a video I watched what you always say follow the label of course. I believe I did completely because you said do NOT use it outdoors because it isn't labeled for outdoor use because it kills bees and this and that. So that being said my question is I have a little bit of it left in the sprayer and I have no clue at all how in the world to dispose of it. It says on the label not to use it after 24 hours after mixing it and I want to put out a second application because it's been a month now and that's what you recommended in a video but I have no idea how to clean the sprayer because I can't dump it outside of course and I don't think putting it down the drain is a good idea so my question is what do I do with the little that's left in the sprayer before I put more in it?? And if I should just buy a new one and start from scratch then how do I dispose of this one safely?

    • @GreenAkersPC
      @GreenAkersPC  5 лет назад +2

      I would just apply the rest of the pesticide on a second treatment. It wont be as strong as original but thats what I would do if I were in your situation. Its important when mixing pesticides to always mix less than what you think you will need so you wont be put in this predicament again. You can always mix more and this way product doesn't get wasted.

    Hi Jason! I am waking up with itchy bites but I see no bed bug tracks; you know, the tell tale black spots/droppings? I see no shells or anything but do not understand what is biting me. It's frustrating. I think I need an inspection but I don't trust a lot of these pest companies for some reason. What should I do?
    P.S. I don't think it's fleas because my dog gets treated with the stuff I get at the vet every month.

      This is my situation too. I just started getting new bites!!! I had heat treatment, and 7 mos of Transport Micron + I'd spray in between monthly visits. The Co. has cost a fortune yet they swear they see no evidence of B.B. but I have a line of scratches on me every few weeks. No company will do a car. That's all I can think is they have to be in my car. I feel like I will go mad. So back for more of Jason's videos!!

      @@wendi2819 have u used the crossfire yet? I found 1 bug on wednesday and ordered it saturday. It will be here within the week I'm hoping so I can spray. I got them from a friend that moved into a home that had one. The landlord had an exterminator come in 6 times now and is now refusing to treat it again because the last ppl, terminex, put on mattress encasement and they got a rip in them and now its started again and the landlord is saying my friend brought them back into her home, which is untrue. I do not sit on her furniture when I go over there so only thing I can imagine is I got one from her car. I hope u can get your problem under control. I think this man knows what he is talking about. When I get a job I plan on donating money to this man. He has helped me become more informed and has given me much needed confidence that I can get rid of these evil sadistic little shits and keep them away. This is ridiculous. I wish I could sue my friends landlord refusing to keep his rental property free from bugs which in turn caused me to get them. I hate ppl 🙄

    @patrickleonard1174 5 лет назад

    Hey Jason I think it might be wise if you try an experiment. Perhaps if you can get some bugs samples and put them into a sort of test luggage and then try putting them through a zap bug heat chamber and see if that kills them all. It should to my knowledge as long as you allow it to heat 120 degrees and then allowed to remain at that temperature for an hour.
    I know that I put some bugs to these Chambers someone's that I knew for sure we're alive. And I was able to see that they died I had them contained in a plastic Ziploc bag and the way that I determine that they're no longer alive was by prodding them with a ballpoint pen. The bugs from what I have seen they always react to prodding, provided you prod them persistently enough over the period of a minute.

      The interceptors don't work and are a ripoff same with the bed covers... the seams are large enough for tiny nymphs to escape. they only serve to give false confidence
