      I live in a single family home with my elderly parent. It took me two wks to discover what was causing the bites early July. Pco sprayed on a Tuesday & Thursday. Got bit 12 days later. He said he'd come in a couple of days but didn't show up. He said two sprays is his success rate so he thought it was a mix up. The sprayed a third time. Couple of days later I got bite again. He stayed a fourth time. I believe he used different insecticides. My mom bedding always looks clean and she shows no signs of bites.
      Following the forth spray I order inspectors for the beds. Two days later I had tell take bites on elbow. Stain on mattress encasement! So now the pco kinda done.
      I got a dumpster, heavy duty plastic and duct tape box spring and mattress, ripped w2w carpet out, bagged and sealed... into dumpster. Decluttered alot too.
      I FEEL the bugs are still around.
      My mom says there not like the pco! She just wants to go on like before and I get it.
      Any suggestions?

    I heard recently that they cant climb up on tape so it will stop them feeding.It might be a little lame but could you do a vid about shoving how to apply encasement on bed(im getting mine on thursday,cant wait),and once its on how can you secure your bed with tape around it(best way to do it,which tape would work and how to apply on your mattr.) Im thinking to put the encasement on then somehow tape the bed around as the ultimate protection(i know it wont kill them just stops them feeding and thats fine ill do the killing after work daily cleaning 👍

    We had a little case of the cockroaches as well. I put little areas of. beer on the flopr and the next day dead. We have 341 units and every year the whole place sprayed.They stopped and this condo is like a revolving door of.people coming in and out with suitcases coming from everywhere. They stopped doing individual units and a lot.of people are battling.all kinds of termite problems. They feel it is less expensive that way. Although I think the bugs just escape and go from unit to unit. The supers have a big fear of pesticides being used. That was the last people now we have a new condo Corp group. We will see how it goes.

    I have no bed bug droppings I have some dark spots on my pillows and i found just 1 bug that may look like a bed bug. There is no signs on my walls or dressers or bed. If it possible to have just 1 maybe it came from someone staying the night? Can I email you an picture of this bug? I kept it in a plastic bag and it finally died after about 8 days. I have no bites i was up around 2 am watching tv in my bed and felt it on my arm. Everything I read talks about infestations but I'm not seeing anything.

    I'm surprised you didn't warn about sealing the vacuum and the hose separately after use. It is not recommended to use a vacuum with a filter. Bugs and especially eggs and excrement can get caught in the filter. Use a sealed cartridge vacuum cleaner, not one with a bag, even if it is disposable.

    • @GreenAkersPC

    • @GreenAkersPC
      @GreenAkersPC  6 лет назад +2

      letsif not really because a sofa isn't closed off enough. Moth balls create a toxic vapor as they dissolve and this gas fills enclosed areas. Because a sofa is not enclosed enough it will just be a waste to use them there

    We had a case of bedbugs, we threw away every bed and replaced them(and we vacummed the shit outta them every day)
    Their activity ceased and we had like a bite every few days.
    A month later we called the Exterminators who used chemical weapons to kill them, rhey found nests of them behind wall stickers!
    They sprayed the house with an extra dose(exterminator knows my family) and them closed off the whole apartman for a few days.
    We're waiting to see the results now, we were out of town for a few days.
    Ofc beds were thrown away.

      A problem is that the EU banned a specific stronger pesticide that had a 90%+ success rate in a 1 time destruction.
      This new one has like a 60% chance to kill them off in one go.
      The companies secretly kept some reserves of the stronger pesticide but duo to production gone they ran out sadly.

    My son was always bringing junk from the garbage at our condo up here. I started getting what I thought was hives. It got so bad I thought I was really sick with nausea and big welts. I kept searching the bed and saw nothing. The doctor said it was some kind of allergic reaction.to something. Finally I saw a black bug on the couch. Then I started to inspect everything. I found them in the seams and was horrified. The beds were old and so was the couches so.out they went. The exterminator came twice and I have stopped getting sick. I have had a few bites and am prepared to get him back in a few weeks. It is lots of work putting everything in bags, washing, removing items with sleep. I will see how it goes
    Right now I am not see to much. Please people do not bring in things from the garbage. After being sick and spending thousands I am so sick of this.
