Hey man, I'm training be a Bed Bug technician and your videos have been such an insanely valuable resources for me. I've even shared them with some of the technicians I work with and taught them some new information, appreciate all you do man. Maybe you could do some videos on sales and how to be an honest salesman? That's part of my job I still have yet to train on and would be curious to hear your perspective on it. I get it's not your normal field but thought I'd share an idea. Thanks again for all you do man!

@epluribus7228 Год назад

You are just so unbelievably generous with your information and detail. I am constantly impressed with every video I see of yours. My question at this moment is, why not spray the floors? If the bed bugs have to walk on the floors to get from where they are to the person, why is that not a good strategy to getting them? Thank you, sir.

@GreenAkersPC Год назад

Treating the floors is not needed and bed bugs rarely crawl over wide open areas like floors. They live near baseboards and areas around beds not far away so that they need to travel across the floor. The label for crossfire says not to use it as a broadcast pesticide as well.

@epluribus7228 Год назад

Please follow his instructions. Found one bug Sept 1st immediately went to RU-vid. Laid down DE. Still bites (I’m the only one of 3 in house) Ordered Crossfire Oct 7th and reapplied Oct 18th just in case we missed any area. Also used 2nd application to include my car. Today, Nov 1st have not been bitten or seen evidence in weeks. We had a very mild infestation and a very severe case of obsessive behavior changing sheets and inspecting every inch of my house. Sitting here today I finally feel I’m recovering from the trauma. Skip all other products here on RU-vid and use crossfire as soon as you’ve identified a bed bug in your home. Don’t forget to treat your car as well.

@mettamorph4523 Год назад

Do young bed bugs give less violent bites than adult bed bugs? Previous bbug bites stay with me for weeks and leave bruises. After spraying with another brand, before finding you, I saw one small bbug near the ceiling and I killed it. I know they're nesting and don't believe for a minute that they're gone. Seven days later I sprayed that other brand again. NOW I sometimes get a couple of small itchy bites that disappear in 24 hours, I'm wondering if they come from young bbugs. I just did a Crossfire spray 2 days ago, which is 10 days after my previous spray. I dusted my outlets. Crossfired the car. Thanks for all your info. Especially thankful for the mental health video. I can win this war!

@irenecheng5122 10 месяцев назад

I have the same problem, in the beginning the bites were bigger, very itchy, after Terminex came a few times the bites got much smaller and barely itched, gone in about a day. Been 4 months still getting these tiny bites. Last time I saw a dead bug was one and a half months ago. Very mild infestation, only saw one live baby one 4 months ago, and then 3 dead ones since. Sprayed with crossfire two days ago hoping for the best. Jason is the best!

@jessecahigginbotham2435 Год назад

We currently have an encasement on our mattress that they have nested all over the corners of. When treating you mentioned take this encasement off. Should I throw it away? And if so, is there a proper way to dispose of it since there are eggs and bugs on it?

I really wish I lived in your town to hire you. I have bed bugs, been talking to contractor that only deals with bed bugs. I have been using DE and essential oils. I am thinking of hiring him as he uses Crossfire and heat treatment. I am a single elderly woman at 77 years and am not up for treating myself. I have been watching you for weeks.Just watched the video n you stated have to wait 90 days to treat after using DE n oils.. I and my dog are getting bit. I asked this man if his company would come back in a few weeks and he stated no gives a 90 day guarantee but if I want year it would be $350. Would this be advisable in your opinion. Also I really need to get this done. I only used DE n oils to get some relief. Can I call you as I have numerous questions. I would pay for your time. you also suggested not to use mattress encasement, why? Also should attic be treated, I live in FL with heat index of 101+ every day so would room not AC would that have to be sprayed...so many questions. We don't have many companies that treat bed bugs only.Please help me...God bless you for all your advise.

Hey quick question, so what’s the deal with synthetic vs non synthetic pyrethroids? I was looking into the active ingredients of Crossfire and Temprid and they both contain one but I though Bed Bugs were resistant to them/acted as a repellent? Thanks

@kitjasabsgabs1830 Год назад

organic is best. Crossfire. The other makes bb not come around repels them But it don't solve issue. Crossfire does not repel them and when they come through the spray they die. And when using the store bought u can't use crossfire cause the non organic repels them. So now gotta wait 60, 90 days to use Crossfire.

what can you do if you're getting bitten so bad every night. Is there something I can put on my body to deter them. Have tried essential oil, DE come to find out that this is wrong when your using crossfire do I have to wait 3 months. I am old and sickly any suggestions. I am on fixed income and not up for doing it myself so will have to hire someone and take out a loan. I am waking up every night at 3 am Will anything prevent them from biting.

So here’s my question… when I sprayed the cracks in my ceilings over my bed, like particles dripped out with excess chemical. (Raid bedbug 😕) was that possibly bedbugs or dust.

@@GodsTiming3 I know you're waiting for the expert to reply. Let me tell you what I've learned. A clothes DRYER is what you need, not a washer. Drying clothes/bedding on high heat for 40 minutes kills bbugs and the eggs. Washing clothes is ineffective cuz bbugs can swim and the water doesn't stay hot enough for long enough.
