Chances are you’ve read our site and verified that you have a bed bug problem and looking for a do-it-yourself pest control without having to pay big bucks for a pest control company.
Non-Toxic or Pesticide? This page offers Pesticide designed for bed bugs but if you would like a non-toxic solution, visit our Bed Bug Dust page offering all natural pest control.
There are a number of effective bed bug sprays out there but what makes one better than the other? Here are the items you need to be concerned with when selecting a solution:
* Is the spray safe around family? Pets? (after it dries…)
* Does it stain fabrics and surfaces?
* How long does the spray last for? (at least a week…)
* Aerosol spray or spray bottle used?
* Is the bed bug spray not irritating – will it irritate you once sprayed on mattress?
* Can the formula kill other small insects, such as bed mites?
* Money back guarantee or reputable seller?
* Does it leave a repulsive smell after use?
Best way is to use a home made bed bug spray called bed bug dust – all the information you need to solve the problem is right there, and, it works!

this is it! my truck broke down today, im broke and just found out my house is infested with BB”s. so theres just no winning anymore. no money to fix problem besides heat. creames and sprays and new furniture will only add up to the heat treatment! so it’s buy the exterminating heat treatment or KILL YOURSELF………theres no more options, i’ll let you know in the morning my choice. good night, hope the bed bugs dont bite
My husband’s brother came to stay in our basement for a while and brought some nasty little friends with him. First I told him to get his bed out of my house immediately, I bagged up all the laundry, clean and dirty and took it to the laundry mat. we checked around for a while and spayed where we thought they could be hiding.
then over the summer my son kept having bites all over him, we just passed it off as mosquito bites. well now that it is winter we noticed that he had bites all over his back.
We flipped the mattress and sure enough we had bed bugs. They had traveled up 2 flights.
For the past month I have been spraying with Bed bug killer on all mattresses and furniture. 2 weeks ago, we decided to make sure every room was decluttered to make the search easier.
My husband took our curtains down and found them there too! we threw them right out in the trash. Since the start of the battle I have made sure that the kids don’t keep anything lying around. I check the mattress before I go to bed, and he checks it during the day. for the past week (we are still spraying every other day) we have seen very little of them. and the ones we are finding are small.
I am going to continue to spray probably for a few weeks after we do not see anymore anywhere. Also, when fighting bedbugs make sure you take off the socket covers, curtains and check your dressers too, we found a lot on the inside of our dressers behind the drawers. I hope this helps a bit. and I definitely cannot wait unit I get rid of them for good
Ive been living with bed bugs for two years now. I believe they came from a visitor who was previously in jail and came to visit. I paid a bed bug exterminator $500.00 for 1 visit when i was supposed to get 3 visits. they disappeared for a very short time, I threw away my bed my sons bed and my living room coach, lots of clothing. I spray rubbing alcohol around 99% on my walls (my bed bug spray), bedding. I rub olive oil on my body every night and all through the night to keep them off. Please can you email me with the cheapest house hold bug killer? I’m unemployed at this time and can’t take it any longer!
I found a few bed bugs in my house, I called pest control people to come out and inspected and gave me some helpful advice due to the fact its VERY expensive for them to do it and would require at least 2 visits to my house.
I covered every mattress, vacuumed all rooms, threw away teddy bears, old clothes, anything that came in contact with the floor also every week I wash everything! I went out and bought a chemical called DRAGNET and CB80 which is also used by the PROFESSIONALS! Today is the day I will do my own house and I will let everyone know how it went! By the way I got the bed bugs from my older kids going to there grandmothers house!
In the States a product at pet stores called deflea
, will kill bed bugs as well as fleas, ticks, lice and mites on contact. It is guaranteed to kill bed bugs and the only natural, perfectly safe product for people, pets and the planet. Check it out, it works!
Dee:
Do not let your son in your house unless he takes all his clothes off and you wash everything in hot hot water. Spray the suite case as the love to travel in suite cases.
Good luck
I just want to let everyone know I have researched Bed Bugs and spoke to exterminators. All the sites I have gone to and the exterminators say Do Not Bomb. All it does is scatter and does not kill the eggs. You also need to do more then just spraying. Because that doesn’t kill the eggs either.
Everything I’ve read today makes it sound HOPELESS. So even if you MOVE you might take them with you. I am so upset today. I only saw one dead one today but I’ve been itching for weeks, thought I just had hives. I mean, are we taking these sob’s with us and leaving ‘em everywhere??? this sucks.
OK so I have a major bed bug infestation, i could tell just by the marks and in the reams of the beds, and an occasional bed bug here and there. But i decided to refurnish my bedroom with a new mattress.
I took my mattress to the dumpster and washed everything including myself several times. But i have this feeling that they are still here! i was my clothes, blankets, sheets and all! But i consistently throughout the day feel like there’s something crawling on me. I look down and theres nothing there!
I haven’t gotten any bites so far since the clean up.
But i feel like they are crawling all over me! Am i going insane!?
Paranoid!?
I cant say for sure…
HELP! thanks!
My son is returning from a trip to a relatives home in New York in which the house he was staying in was infested by bed bugs. They say that everything was treated and cleaned. Is there is anything that I can do, like a bed bug spray, to be sure that they do not travel with him in his clothes or luggage back to our house here in Georgia.
Thank You,

I have heard that there is an epidemic of bed bugs lately in all kinds of hotels and motels. It doesn’t seem to matter how expensive or inexpensive the cost of the lodgings are, they have been infested. The news reporters on TV stated that it is a strain of bug that seems to be impossible to kill. We were planning a trip to the Grand Canyon, but now I am afraid to go because of this problem. Am I being too afraid, or is the problem real? Please someone let me know
thanks

i dont know if i have bed bugs ..i was at a apt then told they had them..i do have a couple of red marks on leg but they look nothing like the pictures i have seen.how do i know for sure????
I have just noticed bites on my arm and but. Not sure if it’s a mosquito or not. I haven’t seen any bugs, how can I tell if I have them.
What about getting rid of bugs that might have remianed in soft luggage…..how should I do that?
I live in barrie , Ontario Canada. I want to know Does any hardware store carry bed bug spray. And what is the name of the product.
I have been fighting a bedbug problem for over a year now. I had Orkin out four times in the beginning with no results, so I started buying Bayer’s insect spray and treating the areas where I would see the Bugs and we no longer sleep in the upstairs quarters. I don’t believe this nightmare will ever end, since I am currently unemployed and I haven’t the finances to battle this problem. Please give me some suggestions I’m begging you.
I think what Jj is trying to say, is use heat treatment rather than bed bug spray to get the inside hot enough to kill them.
Burn the camper.
Hi Raq,
Bed bugs lay on average 5 eggs which hatch in a week and can produce 500 little ones in a life time, so your spray may not be effective on eggs. Spray often over the course of a couple weeks and your results will improve.
Yes, if you didn’t have bugs before and they are in that headboard, then they will likely infest the house!
The key is not just one application, but persistence over a few weeks.
I want to know how long does it take for a bedbug to lay eggs and produce rapidly. I saw an adult bedbug and many 1st stage bedbugs and used bedbug spray 4 times and sprayed the mattress thoroughly and the headboard, rails, and the box spring then, let it set for 5 hrs.
I came back in vacuumed the whole place very carefully, washed all the clothes in hot water and dried and still there are bedbugs in the headboard, box spring, and dresser. What else can I do about it? And my ignorant stepmother wont allow me to take the headboard out of the house so, that these bedbugs won’t continue to produce.
Is it correct or not that if the headboard isn’t taken outside and that is where the bedbugs live it will infest the entire house?
Thank you.
I have a camper and would like some advice on how to get the bed bugs out of it. Ive tried sprays and powders and wasted a lot of money to no avail. I just cant get rid of them and as you know it drives you crazy, Thank you.
