Did you trap them? if yes how many??

Did u really try this?? And how long did it take for u catch them?

@@DBmamaamy81 They don't work I tried them a couple of times

@@Wright10301973 You seems lonely to say this. They don't work, so you say, you should tell it didn't work for you. Many others say it works/worked for them. Are you saying they're liars?

Same here, it causes psychological damage. I have bedbug ptsd. I don’t have bedbugs now but want to make these traps to make damned sure they don’t come back.

How did you know you had them?

@@knothead35 , I had bites on the tops of my feet. They itched so bad. The bites followed my vein up my foot. I grabbed my phone one night and sat up to scratch my foot and saw about fifty bugs in the bed. They were fat and full of blood like ticks. Then I ripped the room apart. They were hiding in the box spring mattress. Had nest with eggs. Lots of bug feces and empty exoskeletons because they Lot every-time they feed and outgrow their skin. Probably a couple thousand bugs. I was a hard sleeper so I have no idea how long I had them. I even went to Sr. About the rashes. I threw away everything thing I owned. Moved out. Started over. Edit for typos. It was traumatic.

@@littlefootsgrandma holy crap! Thank you for sharing your horror story

​@@knothead35what tipped me off was the bites. You'll typically get bites on your arms/hands or legs/feet. The bites will either be in a line or clustered together. For people that have a stronger reaction to the bug bites, they'll be itchy for days and maybe painful and swollen. Another verifying sign is you'll start seeing little blood spots on your pillow cases and bed sheets. I got lucky when i found one on the bathroom floor (as they are very tiny) and i captured it to show the exterminator. I apologize for the novel but i feel its important to know the early warning signs so you can catch the infestation early so it doesnt get out of hand. I hope this helps.

I was in the hospital a while back and I swear they were in the bed they put me in!!! My legs got ate the fuck up and I had on socks that came all the way up to my knees and those little bastards will bite you right through the sock!

I am retired ER nurse - wish I had known this back then. LOL😅

2 yrs with no bedbugs but I think they're back! Doing this tonight, plus the D earth. Where do they come from?!

Did it work?

how did it go?

We still do it every couple months just to check for them, thankfully they have not returned.

Didn it work? These little bastards are biting me to death

@@jasonsterling5915 if

Join the crowd. I don't even want to know if the bedbugs are biting me in my bed. I already threw out 3 beds. Now I am upstairs with the only bed left. I have flowered sheet on them now, and i cant really see if something else is on there, and I don't want to even think about it. Now I have flees and they are worse than the bed bugs. Every day I actually see them crawling on me. I never heard of flees being so hard to get rid of.

@Bonnie Beretta from what I read the alcohol doesn't work when it drys.

What is the last bottle?😊

Buy a bag of edible diatomaceous earth that is organic. Works great for all bugs. No fleas no nothing. And it doesn’t harm you no nasty chemicals or anything

@Namfonos Which is why you're supposed to keep your things in the tub where you travel too. Never on the bed/couch/chair.

It would work if I didn't have to shower when I get home from any travel....

I wouldn't walk through the house to get to the tub. Before I leave for my trip I spray the floor of my garage down really good with bug killer. I also spray the inside of my truck. Once I get home I don't even go in the house until everything that's in the truck is sitting in the garage on the area I sprayed. Then I get naked and may even use a little alcohol on my hair and body. Than I hit the shower. I have never had them, but some of my friends do and it only takes one the size of a pin head to fall off your suitcase going to the tub. My wife works at an apartment complex so I know way to much about them. To repel them, if I am going into a place where I know they are, Deet works really well. Which is in products like Off. Now when I get to the hotel I put my bag in the bathtub or shower and inspect the room.

@@victordobin5918 Shower in one of your other 5 bathrooms.

Could I ask what baby powder you used? I ask because everything we find smells strongly and we're wondering if that will still be effective or there is something else that we should use?

Beautiful thought. Thank you.

Thanks, At least you have a way to prevent and check fir them in the future.

I don't believe 30 minutes

@@compton3c She probably meant she started catching some in 30 mins

Patricia, did yu get rid of the bugs using this??

Good luck! They seem to be in France too

Buy some food-grade diatomaceous earth. It's cheap and kills them by mechanical action. Microscopic seashells that act like razor blade to their bodies.

@@wesleyrm I’m in Germany but I got my first bites the night a friend had visited me and he had been traveling to Paris before. I wonder if he brought them to me because I hadn’t been traveling. From what I’ve heard Paris seems to have somewhat of an issue, in general they seem to be spreading like crazy all over the world again because of resistance to pesticides. I’m quite confused because the first night I got bitten I caught a bug. It didn’t really look like the pictures of bed bugs I found, it wasn’t oval shaped but rather straight but I don’t know what else it should be and it bit me like hell (I felt the bites in real time though but I read you don’t feel bed bug bites til later?) When I looked closer at the insects in the trap though they had wings and I found that they look like tiny fruit flies. I found them at the windows too, I originally had thought they were stray fruit flies because I had had some in my kitchen but when I killed them some had blood in them. I don’t know if it could have been no-see-ums?? I thought maybe I don’t have bed bugs then and killed most of the flies with bowls of vinegar, water and detergent and found many drowned. Just when I started to relax I got bitten like hell again at night but discovered absolutely nothing with my flashlight and saw nothing flying. Then the next day I found one of these bugs again, the same as in the first night. So it seems I got TWO weird kind of parasites I never had before in my home out of the blue?! I sprinkled baking soda everywhere around my bed and the walls because bed bugs will die within a few days when in contact with it. The last nights I got no or at least definitely fewer bites, I pray I got it under control. Sorry for the long text, I’m just SO confused about what I actually have. I haven’t slept during the night in 2 weeks :/

​@@sarahfara1539 To not transmit them, tell the guy to dry heat his clothes before each move! Maybe drying your bedding/clothes could help you! No need to wash, just dry and inspect the filter for ded bugs haha. Yes, France has a problem with those. Here they call them "punaise de lit". Also yes, the bites are only felt after a while, I never spotted any biting me live, the area was already red and itching every time I realized, usually I noticed it only the next morning. Sometimes I couldn't sleep though, so I felt the sudden itch, but never a bite. It itched for a whole day and stayed red for 3~4 days. Really crazy! Mosquito bites are usually white in the center but go away fast (I am Brazilian, I am used to those). But bedbug bites are crazy! I slept really bad too for about 2~3 weeks lol. Then the homeowner came with some strong pesticide and killed them all. Sadly I never spotted them even after he killed them, I just felt the itching and new bites/pricklings stop. Also, never managed to trap bugs in my CO2 trap. The residence has them, other residents spotted some. Then one came back. This past week I spotted a bed bug skin shedding! Which finally gave me confirmation of their presence! Then I had a single bite again in the base of my feet's thumb 2 days later (They love this spot)... I put my sheets in the drier, and I finally spotted a whole bug, red and all. Full of my blood. It was dead, in the machine's drier! I will treasure the photo haha. So try drying your bedding. And use some plastic cover on your bed (Anti-bedbug covers). They can't climb on those. My homeowner has those since he is used to them here haha. The house seems to have many spots for them to hide, so I will try to fill the gaps with some sealant/putty/filler, maybe silicon since I heard it is easy to remove if anything goes wrong. Good luck!

@@sarahfara1539 did you manage to get rid of them in the end?

Any update bro?

My thought was " let's just say, we need to bar Egyptians from leaving Egypt "

They're from the damn devil!!!

Good answer! Lol

Hi, did it work?

Your correct it takes a multiple pronged attack to get these bastards.

I am doing what you suggested. Heard of other CO2 traps but haven't tried any yet. Was wondering why he didn't use diatomaceous earth in the container. I keep a spray bottle with alcohol on hand. I spray where I sit, before and after. I also drenched my bed with alcohol before I covered it with a better mattress cover. I also drenched the sofa. But they are still in there. I also spray with bed bug spray and powder with diatomaceous earth. We may not get a disease from these bloody creatures, but they play havoc on my nervous system! I'm starting to flinch anytime something touches my skin. Not to mention the lack of sleep!

yes

Are your zipper covers plastic?

@@janetjilote6495don’t use alcohol it’s extremely dangerous. Swap out the alcohol for tea tree oil mix it with water and a drop of dish soap. Anything you spray is gonna be an on contact killer so if you’re just spraying it on your furniture it won’t do anything you have to spray it directly onto the bug

How did it go?

Report?

I’m interested. 😊

Still waiting bro, don't be selfish. We need this!

Did this work for you?

I invited someone to stay and just started seeing them ourselves on couch. Never again will we help people with a place to live.. Definitely trying this method. I actually bought new furniture and everything.. I only seen 1 but there is 1 baby .. there is more.. Mines early as well

@@HeatherNicoleCanyon w

@@HeatherNicoleCanyon what are they

Can I put it în the room where we slept ?

I mean on a hot summer day when it's 100 out I don't think they will be in there anymore

@@anthonykulhanek8035 I wish you were right but they can survive a couple days of below freezing temperature as well as up to 127°F!!! It needs to get that hot in your car for a more than a few hours, but it’s a good precaution for if you are dealing with these things !! reinfestation happens very easily because people are not thinking broadly enough-

you can order it from ebay, and its at kablin hardware.

@@debradavis9312 Thanx Debra...found the tape locally and the protocol worked with the addition of bug spray. Placed two by my couch, one by my bed and one by my desk where I am always on the computer. They do find the heat and the CO2. Hoping and praying that I got them all!

Food-grade diatomaceous earth and CO2 traps.

Did it work for you?? if yes, specifically how many did you catch??

Glad it helped you! And the dryer is a great way to kill any on fabrics.

You don't have to keep washing just throw the stuff in the dryer..saves time and money. Of course if it needs washed..wash it.

Did you try this method?

Does it work if you are in the residence..they go after you or the trap

@@lucianewell6084 there isn't really a method. You want to try to be out of the residence as much as possible, there's ways you routinely clean and take protective measures wherever you are sitting and make sure they can't get a blood meal, they will go to the traps. Also Vaseline on the base and legs of things keeps them from climbing up. Clean clean and clean again. And don't forget to put one or two traps in your car when you aren't driving and monitor it so you aren't just tracking them back in. Cheers.

@@wakenow7612 great idea on the car as well. Their eggs are transported easily in clothing apparently!

@@lucianewell6084 Like Jason said, leave the room empty sothey don't have the real McCoy to snack on.

Did these traps help you eradicate?

Yes, maybe. Initially there were bugs in the trap so I put out another which never attracted them. But, I haven't seen one in over a week. Thanks for the simplicity of your trap using items around the house! @@nikirivera08

Did they work for you!?!

@@nicholeperry64 Quite a few climbed into the boxes and died. But more keep coming. If I could leave the room for a few weeks I think I'd eventually clear them but I have to stay in the one room and I think the bugs like my legs better than the box.

@@FarReacher41 Yes, I've heard that if a human is in the room (especially the person the bugs have been feeding on), they prefer to eat human blood and not go for the yeast. So, the best way to fight them is to use yourself as bait and ensure they don't get to you. The main idea is to put special traps (you can make them yourself, they are even easier to create than this yeast trap) around every leg of all your beds where someone sleeps. Ensure that nothing on the bed touches the floor, the walls, or the furniture. A blanket touching the wall at night can ruin everything and you'll have to start fresh. But before doing this, you have to make sure all of your beds and pillows etc. are free of the bugs and their eggs - you have to wash all the sheets and everything, clean the mattress with a steam cleaner and also clean every nook and cranny of the bed with a steam cleaner or a heatgun. Only when the bed is 100% clean, your body will act as an unreachable bait for the bugs. Inspect your sheets every morning - if you see any bug feces or even crushed bugs, it means your bed is compromised (maybe a bug got in from your clothes or if your blanket touched the wall) and you have to start it over - clean the pillows, the sheets, the blanket, steam the mattress, heat-gun all the crevices of the bed, including under the bed. Good luck in your fight! It is possible but it won't be easy. If you live in an apartment with neighbors, the bugs might come to you anyway. Sometimes it has to be a shared effort with all the neighbors working together. Or calling professionals (but not the ones with the heating machine - that one does not work for very long).

@@camelCased thanks so much for your reply. I did all the bed and bedding cleaning then got theidea to wear a bug suit used for fishing & other outdoor activities in Northern Canada where blackflies and mosquitos are practically lethal. It worked. I was completely protected from the bugs which couldn't get thru the fine netting of the suit. I captured and destroyed them. I also put diatomaceous earth all around the baseboards to kill incoming and outgoing bugs. That worked too, I found dead bugs around the edges of the room. I've been bug free now for six months and just have to keep doing frequent inspections to get on top of it quickly if there's a recurrence.

@@FarReacher41 you are so awesome - you did such a great job solving this horrible problem with patience, perseverance and imagination, well done!

Any update?

It worked great for us and our friends and family. Just make sure it is placed in an area with little to no airflow that will push the cO2 out of the dish.

Rubbing alcohol was a game changer when I found out they were living with me. Definitely recommend it.

@@bbwjunkie8321 Wondering if ethanol would also be the same thing? We don't have "rubbing alcohol" in Europe, it's illegal to sell it here.

@@camelCased In the U.S. rubbing alcohol is isopropyl alcohol. It's actually not that useful in the bed bug fight, and can be extremely dangerous. It's only kills bed bugs when sprayed directly on them. It evaporates very, very quickly (think hand sanitizer) and the vapor is HIGHLY flammable. Misuse by frustrated bed bug victims has caused horrible fires and injuries, and death.

Salt and baking soda on the carpets 24 hours then vacuum, no fleas for a month or more

Any updates ? Is this worked for you?

Diatomaceous earth is harmful if inhaled as it sticks in the lungs and stays there, so be careful with it.

@@jmd5600 I was thanks

USE FOOD GRADE DIATOMACEOUS EARTH.

Good luck, remember to place them in places with little airflow

Read my upper comment. Perhaps due to my age, I have really been suffering with these for about a week now. I thought I had gotten rid of them, but after a few nights wihtout any bites, I got bitten again. I must be very allergic to them as I had a really deep red rash around the bites that if I didn't use cortisone and take a lot of antihistimes to ease the itch and pain, I have been miserable. I feel like my cats do before they need another flea shot.

@@ddmcpaisley6299 I also react terribly to the bites. I found that mint essential oil or Tiger Balm Ultra will stop the itch after about 2 minutes. You just have to get through the 2 minutes, good luck to you.

works

May I ask what baby powder you used? The Johnson's and anything else we found that wasn't organic (and the organic ones use different base ingredients, so I wasn't sure if that would work) smells so strongly; wondering if it will still work, or if there is something else people are using?

Hello, I’ve watched a few of these trap videos with many of the same strategies, but you don’t want to shock the yeast with water that’s too cold or too hot, so I believe the best is luke warm water apprx. 100 deg. Fahrenheit, so that the yeast can do its work without thermal shock taking place. It looks like he is using room temp water for his traps though, so it seems that’s an ok starting point as well. Good luck!👍

I brought them home in an antique 4 post bed. Had them for a couple of months before I saw one running on a pillow one night. Never had any bumps or itching. It's been 4 months since I brought the bed in and 2 months of very little sleep because I had it in my head that I could wake up and kill off what didn't die in the spraying and vacuuming. As much as a pain the bites must have been it's good that you were allergic or you could have infested your home!
