@__Kkmm0931___...to help a friend, what a nice thing to hear. That's why I made the bedbug trap, people helping themselves and then helping other people. As long as we have a friend, we have everything, and even sometimes, the solution to a nightmare. That’s how good the trap is. It does its job quietly and completely and is then passed to a friend. Thank you Kmm0931. I’m happy about the loss of your bedbugs. It all began when you started putting pitfalls and obstacles in their way, blocking their only way to get to you and luring them into traps. The ones in the pitfalls were the lucky ones, they suffocated in 12-24 hours from the CO2 in the glass, but the ones under the shield suffered for two months in the throes of starvation. They could not feed on you anymore and they starved to death. Hmm, what a fitting ending for a bedbug. And all the credit is yours; you eradicated the whole colony all by yourself! Bravo!

@__ Yu Zhang__Excellent, thank you. Finding our first bedbugs in the traps is our reward for trusting this method that we can do all by ourselves. It is a confidence booster and hopes to finally eliminate them. You will not be deceived as your results will be repeated every day, catching less and less bedbugs as their numbers go down. The traps are relentless, on the job 24/7 until there is not a single bedbug left. And then, keep a few traps running at half strength (using only half the amount of yeast) to make the traps act as sentinels against any future infestation. Catching the very first bedbugs before they even have a chance to feed and produce more little bedbugs. And there is more about eliminating bedbugs. A shield to stops all and any bedbug as soon as they invade your place, keeping them from being able to bite and feed from your blood. A bedbug that cannot feed is a harmless and helpless bedbug. Bedbugs absolutely need blood to molt and grow. Denying your blood to those bedbugs breaks their life cycle and makes them die of starvation. Bedbugs absolutely need blood to lay eggs and multiply. By keeping bedbugs from being able to feed, you break any possibility of getting more bedbugs from brooding. And ultimately, by keeping bedbugs from being able to feed, they simply die of starvation and you get rid of all bedbugs permanently. The bedbug shield is an impenetrable barrier that no bedbug can get through or around it. A bedbug shield is made with a simple contour sheet placed directly on the mattress about one inch above the floor, and to which you fix a plastic skirt hanging down all around the bed. Once the plastic skirt is in place, seal it to the sides of the contour sheet using common duct tape that sticks well to both fabric and plastic. I suggest using white duct tape because it looks better than the usual grey one. Here is an example on how to make your own bedbug shield: The Bedbug Shield The best place to place bedbug traps is under the bed and behind each leg of the bed. The plastic skirt of the shield also keeps small breezes from blowing CO2 out of the small glass pitfalls bedbugs fall into. You are right in saying that there might be smaller bedbugs in the powder. If you look close enough, you will see small clump of powder covering tiny near transparent bedbugs, hatchlings and first stages bedbugs. You have nice words to describe what I am doing and I thank you. It is true that bedbug traps are a gift for those who are stuck with bedbugs and that now have the means to defend themselves. That is the only reason why I made the traps and to share it with other people who just like me were stuck with bedbugs. I have been bedbug-free for nearly four years in spite of the fact that I regularly go in bedbug infested places. I simply want this knowledge to be passed on and I am happy that you could find hope by trying this and making your own bedbug traps. The best to you Sir JulesNoise

Okay. Another 7 big bed bugs was captured by the CO2 traps over the two nights. I also found and killed 3 live ones myself at around 11pm before I sleep. My apartment has been unocupied for near two months, and these bed bugs are very hungry. My bed is isolated from the ground by the shield, bed bugs cannot reach the bed unless they land off from the ceiling. In two days, pest control guys will perfrom spread in my apartment. I hope everything would go back to normal in two weeks.

Yu Zhang Well with two bedbug elimination systems, I just can't see you with any bedbugs in a near future. Pesticides repels and pushes bedbugs away and the trap and shield gathers them and neutralize them. Keep the shield on and the traps running, do not let the exterminator take them off because ithe traps and the shield is a prevention system and it will catch and eliminate any bedbugs that will not be killed by pesticides.

He has what they call a "golden throat".

You know something I'll be glad to stand trial for being the most mass murderer of bed bugs in history they are of no use to the human race exterminate them all

T Soto so did this work

Are you still bed bug free?

@__Patricia Garza__That's great. Catching our first bedbugs brings hope, we can beat bedbugs and your results prove it. The traps are relentless, on the job 24/7 and they will keep catching bedbugs until there are none left. I agree that the basket thing is difficult to make. I made this video over two years ago and I didn't know about the bowl with a skirt then. I made other videos since then and they are much easier to do and to understand. The best ones are now made with a small 1 oz shot glass, also made with a skirt, of course, and placed behind each leg of the bed. The CO2 generator, a simple 2L bottle or a container of any size and shape can also be placed near the wall and out of the way, simple airline tubing (found in a Pet Shop or a Hardware store) brings the CO2 from the generator and into the small pitfall glasses. The 2L mixture can also be separated into four smaller 500ml bottles and four small pitfall glasses, to make four traps instead of just one. If you think that CO2 bedbug traps are great, wait until you add a bedbug shield to the traps. A bedbug shield is a contour sheet with a plastic skirt. Use a long plastic strip about 2 feet wide by 25 feet long to make the skirt that will be fixed to the sides of the mattress and hanging down almost to the floor (about one inch above the floor). Once the skirt will be adjusted and in place, put one of your contour sheets directly on the mattress and seal it to the top of skirt with white duct tape. Bedbugs will not be able to go through the fabric contour sheet and will not be able to go sideways through the plastic skirt surrounding the bed. The contour sheet will make it comfortable to sleep on and the plastic skirt will make bedbugs drop to the floor where the four traps will catch them. The major advantage of the bedbug shield is that it stops all bedbug bites at once. Bedbugs trapped under the shield will not be able to feed and will slowly die of starvation. Here is another video about how to make your own bedbug shield: The Bedbug Shield Bedbugs that cannot feed cannot molt. Without our blood, bedbugs cannot grow. Bedbugs that cannot feed cannot lay eggs. Without our blood, bedbugs cannot multiply. Bedbugs that cannot feed simply cannot survive. Without our blood, bedbugs starve to death. Thank you Patricia for trusting the CO2 BedbugTrap. More information can be found at: julesnoise.com/ JulesNoise

Thats what books are

@@TAPTENPAREY lol

This trap work effective?

I made this trap when can I check ?

Thank you. This belongs to everybody and is meant for anybody that might need it. It works, it is inexpensive and anybody can make his own. I would have been a fool to keep it to myself. My time is my own way of sharing. A stranger is often a friend we haven't met yet. Thank you Tom

@__Stevan Grujic__Yes it works. Over 1 000 000 views and 200 000 people can't be wrong. Learn about it and try it for yourself, you will be bedbug-free forever. Thank you.

lol

Yea right?!

SSHHH!

LOL!!

+minniyoutubaster ___ Excellent, you are smart and proved that you understand how a trap works, all you need are a few hints how to apply it to your own needs and stop the bedbug problem. Your method of making traps is just as good as any I ever made and suggested. There are many ways to make bedbug traps, it is not the things we use that are important but how we use it. A trap works because it gives off CO2, one of the only two attractants that lures bedbugs to climb up on the side of a small pitfall, and fall inside of it without being able to come out. That's the reason why the pitfall is covered with cloth, paper towel or anything on the outside so that bedbugs can easily climb on. It is the inside of the pitfall that has to be smooth and slippery so bedbugs cannot climb back out. Any trap that has CO2 overflowing from a pitfall with its exterior easy to climb for bedbugs and inside too slick to climb out makes a bedbug trap. Some people making their own design of traps are very ingenious and they all work, here is an example of someone who made bedbug traps out of a flower vase : julesnoise.files.wordpress.com/2012/07/very-creative-bedbug-trap.jpg Traps are best placed behind each leg of a bed or at both ends of a couch because that's where bedbugs are. Traps that do not fit under the bed can be placed outside and have the same results, placing them under the bed is only to get them out of the way and safe from being accidently knocked down and make a sticky sugary mess. The recipe that produces CO2 is fermentation. It comes from CO2 generators to feed plants in aquariums, it just turned out to be the right amount of CO2 to attract bedbugs and lasting long enough so we do not have to replace it too often. The quantity of sugar and water can vary but the quantity of yeast is fixed because we use a whole enveloppe of yeast, usually 7-8 grams. It takes about 2-3 weeks for the yeast to eat two cups of sugar in two liters of water. Here is the recipe: julesnoise.files.wordpress.com/2012/07/c02-bedbug-trap-__-recipe8.jpg. Since the recipe is for two liters and you use 7 oz containers (207.015 ml), you can fill ten traps with a 2L mixture, so you could make only half a recipe and have five traps, three for the bed and two for the couch. Keep opened yeast enveloppes in the refrigerator so it can be re-used. CO2 bedbug traps attract and catch bedbug on the floor from anywhere in the room. All bedbugs go towards the traps when they are hungry and try to feed. When bedbugs get close to the legs of the bed, they detect the CO2 from the traps and mistake it from the CO2 from our respiration. Bedbugs follow the CO2. climb up where the CO2 comes from , get to the rim of the pitfall and fall into it without being able to got out. To make the inside of your pitfall really too slippery for bedbugs to get a grip, use a light coat of baby powder on the inside of your pitfalls. The easiest way to make a bedbug shield is to drape a large sheet of plastic over the bed and the couch, letting the plastic sides hang almost all the way down to the floor. This plastic with no holes and no opening in it will and does stop all and any bedbug that might try to get to you no matter if they come from anywhere in the room or are already in the bed and the couch. This shield is total protection from bedbugs and along with the traps, it stops and eliminate bedbugs right down to the last one. All bedbug bites will stop at once and you will not get another bedbug bite. Draping a plastic over the bed and couch is the simplest and easiest way to make a shield, it only takes a few minutes, but it is not the most comfortable and safest way. Plastic can be uncomfortable and sweaty, it is also slippery and can be very slippery. Instead of draping a plastic over the bed and couch, use a fabric contour sheet and a long strip of plastic of about 2 feet by 25 feet all around the bed. Seal the contour sheet and the top of that plastic skirt to make a comfortable bedbug shield that will stay in place and will keep bedbugs unable to reach you and bite you. The couch can be protected the same way. Use a large regular fabric sheet over the couch and place it to allow some movement when using it. Let the sides of the fabric sheet hang down all around the couch and once all the ends are about even but without touching the floor, tie it up near the base of the couch to prepare it to receive another long strip of plastic fixed and seal to the sides of the fabric sheet with duct tape. The lenght of the plastic strip should be a few inches longer than all the sides of the couch, while the width depends on your couch and the size of your fabric sheet, but that can be easily figured out. And you should be all set with shields and traps for both the bed and the couch. But you might prefer to kill all bedbugs at once and this can be done with dry ice. Dry ice is solid CO2 at minus 78°F. It is very cold, always use gloves to handle dry ice but other than frostbites, it is harmless. It kills bedbugs by asphyxiating them in nearly pure CO2 that comes from dry ice. Outside the bag or when opening it, this concentrated CO2 mixes with the ambiant air and becomes as harmless as before, it must be highly concentrated to have no oxygen left in the bag to kill bedbugs. It takes a few hours to kill bedbugs but I suggest to leave it on for 24 hours before taking it off and use the the couch right away, other than a light vacuuming maybe, being absolutely sure that there are no live bedbugs at all in the couch. To form the plastic bag around the couch, get a large sheet of 2 mils painter's plastic, at least 12' x 12' or more, too large being better than too small, lay it flat on the floor and place (roll) the couch upside down on the middle of the plastic sheet . Then lift all the sides of the plastic to cover the couch all the way up to form a bag around the couch. Use 2" clear wrapping tape to hold it up and once all the sides are up and straped around the couch to hold it and form the bag, put and spread the dry ice directly on the couch, seal the opening of the sides of the plastic together and close the bag. The sealed bag needs 20-30 needle holes at the upmost top part of the plastic bag to let air escape. Dry ice does not melt and turns directly into gas, leaving no residues and causing no damage whatsoever to the couch, it only becomes cold and is back to room temperature within a few hours. The amount of dry ice is at least 10 pounds for an average size couch, more if you have a big couch, again better to have too much than too little. Dry ice does not keep, it is best to get everything ready before getting the dry ice at a local supplier, dry ice begins to sublimate as soon as you get it. Dry ice sells about 1$/pound. The dry ice procedure is not required to get rid of bedbugs, the shields and the traps are more than enought to take care of the bedbugs and you are not bothered by bedugs while they fall into traps and slowly die of starvation under the shield. You just took all their food away and now they have nothing, absolutely nothing to survive. The more active they get and the more they struggle under the shield and the quicker they die. The dry ice procedure is only an alternative to get rid of bedbugs more quickly and recuperate our beds, couchs, belongings or anything you might want to clear out of bedbugs right now! But you will be fine without it as this method implies planning, additional expenses and extra work. Some think it is worth it, others got rid of their bedbugs without even knowing about it and did fine, just as you will. Bedbugs do not last long when you know how to catch them, starve them and asphixiate them, they do not even fight back, tortured by hunger and unable to feed. I stopped feeding them, they never came back. Do it, this is something you will not regret, knowledge is power. JulesNoise

+Julien Noiseux Hi, sorry for the delay. I actually did smear baby powder around the interiors of each pitfall. Your formula just managed to fill the lower-levels of my 4 contraptions - such as the lower-level of 32oz. yogurt (with 7oz. being the upper-level), or else the lower-levels of 2L-cutoff which is identical to manicmonday's picture. Re: Couch-cover, its too hard for me, and its not even my apt. Rather my dad's at my sister. Even the ready-made FurnitureSafe is too hard for me, and what if bedbugs get onto the couch-cover anyway in case they're not eradicated? As for dad's hospital bed, that's probably impossible, because he prefers what he's used to, rather than an upheaval. Unfortunate, but that's the way it is. I explained my experience in a bit more detail in manicmonday's blog. See various comments under alias judy smith. I also referred to you as I'm eclectic, I.E. your recipe with some revisions, and Manic's trap idea. I'm also puny, thus always choose paths of least resistance! www.instructables.com/id/Easiest-Bed-Bug-Trap/

+Julien Noiseux P.S. Here is how I wrote out the recipe to use together with two of ManicMonday's traps, plus two of my 32oz./7oz. versions, for a total of FOUR MINI-CONTRAPTIONS. ITEMS NEEDED: Baby powder Blue Stik fun-tac Red-yellow yeast packet 4 lb. sugar 8-cup pitcher STERILE 4 qt. pot STERILE ladle STERILE my tall tri-corner glass Teaspoon STERILE 7 oz. disposable cups (1) Fill 4 qt. pot w/filtered water till top of inner gromets. BOIL IT. (2) Wait till boiled water cools to 100 degrees wait time approx. 1.5 hrs to 2 hrs. (3) Ladle 4 oz. of the water to the tri-corn glass (4) Add tsp. sugar to the 4 oz. water and stir well (5) Add yeast packet to the 4 oz. mix (6) Stir alot to produce bubbles. Let it rest 10 min. till there is foamy topping (7) Pour remaining water from pot into pitcher till the 6-cup mark (8) Use 7 oz. disposable cup to measure 3 cups sugar to pour into pitcher of water. Stir well to dissolve sugar. (9) Pour the foamy-glass mixture into the pitcher of tepid sweet water. Stir well to finalize the CO2 mix. (10) Distribute the CO2 mix from pitcher into the various mini-traps. Insert the pit-falls (11) With fingers, smear baby-powder all over the interior of the pit-falls (12) Using blue-stik, attach traps to floor at red-flag-side of couch

Did it work? I have them and am freaking out man!!!
