There was a hoarder house in my town that got infested with bedbugs, roaches, and probably a multitude of other bugs so badly that the city and fire department actually did do a controlled burn to get rid of it.

Can we agree his voice is always so soothing lol!

This is why lizards and spiders are your best friends

Unfortunately, that ant infestation happened to my room at my lowest point of depression. Very very humiliating, glad I no longer have that issue!

Bedbugs aren't a matter of cleanliness. You can have the cleanest house and still end up with bedbugs. There are decently cleaned hotels that you wouldn't think would have bedbugs. Bedbugs actually are infestations is er infestations from people who would bring in things that they feel are useful. There's a reason why you have to cut into mattresses before you throw them out. Cut into old couches. Make them unusable.

As a pest control technician I've run into both roach and bedbug infestations worse then the first two on this list. The worst bedbug one I've ever seen had bedbug carcases 2 inches deep along the baseboards and carpet of the home. The mattresses and linens were soaked in bedbug frass and blood. It was.... Unpleasant. Lol

I don’t have to worry about any infestation, my dad is extremely experienced in infestations, mainly termites. He used to be an inspector at Terminix but is now a sales man. Gotta be grateful for him he studied for YEARS! My dads awesome.

I have dealt with 3 bedbug infections. 2 in my mom's house. My bf at the time and I were gonna move in together. So we threw our clothes in the washer and dryer on high heat and place them in bags that you can use a vacuum to shrink them. As an extra precaution we left those bags in the car for 4 days when we got to our new place since it was summer. By some miracle the bed bugs didn't come with us. When we found out the place we moved to was in foreclosure we had to move again. When we moved into the new apartment we found out the whole apartment complex had bedbugs. When my bf and I broke up I stayed in the apartment. When I met someone and it got serious I moved again and did the same wash and drying clothes with the bags vacuuming down and leaving them in the car for a week in the heat before bringing the clothes in to the new apartment and again by some miracle the bed bugs didn't come with me into the new place and thankfully this place had no bedbug infestation prior too moving in and is still bedbug free. Sadly I lost over 95% of my things cause of these bugs. I had to get new clothes and new things it was frustrating and expensive but it was worth it

I have been a pest control tech for over 20 years. First, the “German” cockroach infestation at the beginning of this video CAN be avoided. This type of infestation is due solely to uncleanliness and filth in someone’s home. German cockroaches are mainly looking for a food source, whereas other outdoor roaches such as, American, Smokey Brown and Brown Banded cockroaches are generally looking for a water source. This is why you see these big roaches outside under moist areas like straw beds and moist soil. Ants, no mater how large the infestation, can be controlled and eliminated, you just need to terminate the source which is the colony and that can take time and several applications of insecticide. Termites are generally silent destroyers until noticed due to home damage. Bed Bugs can be extremely difficult to eradicate fully and they are probably one of the main insects that I hate the most. Stink bugs can be guided elsewhere and should be handled gently to avoid the secretion. One thing that isn’t pointed out in this video is the fact that lady bugs are a protected species and if caught killing them it can result in major fines. We don’t kill lady bugs at all. It’s the same as bats, it is a $10,000 fine PER bat if you harm them. Law was passed in 1972 to protect them. You can relocate them from someone’s home, but never kill them. Yellow jackets are very annoying and their stings are very painful. Thankfully, I’ve never seen a nest like this one. Honey bees can cause a serious sting as well and it swells pretty bad if not treated. Carpenter bees don’t generally sting, they just eat wood but they can be controlled rather easily. Mosquitos are everywhere here in the south, just use repellent. Most of these insects can be controlled rather easily, you just have to know what chemical is best for what pest and then find the source, eliminate it, and continue preventative maintenance.

When I was a child growing up in So CA, cockroaches seemed to be a common thing. One time my mom decided to get the house fumigated before we moved so we didn’t “take them with us”. When we came home afterwards, we had to sweep up dead roaches by the dustpan full. It was so gross.

We had a bad bug infestation for months. It took forever to get rid of them and we still get freaked out whenever someone wakes up with a bite on their leg

The first story is a rare example where arson would be legally considered a public service.

Anyone else suddenly feel some bugs crawling around on their back

2:25 I think a better joke would be, "Well that phone had quite a few bugs in it" 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I once had a marmot get into the crawl space and get trapped in the ducts. About a week after we removed it, hundreds and hundreds of flies started coming out of the crawl space and into the house. It was like a miniature plague of flies. It was hard to even prepare food without flies getting into it. Take it from me, if you suspect some animal has taken a dump in your crawl space, clean it out immediately or you may find yourself in a similar situation.

2:14 I screeched when he peeled that off

Bug Exterminator: "Ah shit here we go again".

I once had a bedbug infestation after coming back from a beautiful vacation in Florida. Me and my family were greeted with hundreds of bedbugs. Trust me, that sucked. The house is and has been bedbug free ever since the bedbugs were exterminated. There was one that even crawled Inside my moms ear and bit her there as well. Luckily we got an exterminator to get rid of the bedbugs. I also had to sleep on the couch because my bedroom was not safe for me to sleep in during the infestation. I really hope that they don't EVER come back again.

I work for an apartment complex. I used to see this all the time. Now I work at a nice one. But once I walked in to an infested apartment with flees. I was in for 3 seconds. I literally walked 3 steps in, felt them and 3 steps out. I was completely covered in them. My boss was 10 times worse. We stripped to our draws lol…

We had bedbugs in my apartment building. The manager paid for extermination the first time but then made us pay half if there was a second time and the full amount any time after. What she didn't realize was that they can move from one apartment to another so the only way to completely control them would be to tent the whole building and get rid of them all at once.

This is why I love winter and snow. It means no bugs! Well... for the most part. I've never even heard of snow-fleas before.

As if some people can happily live with infestations like that. Makes my skin crawl

coming from someone who once lived in a home infested with bed bugs, they are notoriously hard to get rid of because of how resilient they are. It took 7 treatments over the course of 9 months to finally be free of them. Always be wary of bringing in any second hand furniture into your home and inspect thoroughly if you don't have the option to buy it brand new.

I had a fly infestation for a year and that was the worst. They'd wake me up in the morning or middle of the night landing on my face or buzzing around my ears. Then when I was awake, they were constantly landing on me or buzzing in front of my face while I'm trying to do something, and it just made focusing on anything impossible. They were an absolute nuisance and I never want to see a fly again. Each time I killed one that was landing on me or buzzing around my head, another one would just replace it immediately. I couldn't figure out where they were coming from.

This is the exact motivation I need to clean my house

In rural areas ladybugs are actually bred and dropped by planes because they get rid of bugs that will eat trees and crops and farmland. I lived in southern Virginia for a year and about once a week in the summer planes (crop dusters) would fly overhead and you could see them dropping baskets of lady bugs, it was like rain.

I have experienced the stink bug & lady bug bombardment. Every year, at least in my area, we seem to have a new bug that takes over everything every year. The first year we ever had the stink bugs was the worse. They were EVERYWHERE-both inside & outside, and I never thought we’d be able to get rid of them. The next year, I prepared & brought the mini ShopVac upstairs to start sucking any up that I found. Instead, we ended up getting a ton of lady bugs pouring in through the ACs in our windows. We still get stink bugs here and there, but not anywhere close to that very first year we had thousands of them.

16:48 Run an electric current through the water and watch them all die 😂

Raid? Try giving corn meal to ants. It will swell up in their little bellies and it kills them. They'll also take grains of the corn meal to their nests where others will also eat it.

The one and only time my house had bedbugs, apparently the exterminator was extremely impressed. The moment one was found, we put EVERYTHING that we possibly could, into garbage bags (we had 87 garbage bags of clothes, stuffed animals, pillows, etc.; anything that would fit) and the item that we found the one on, was my daughter's wicker laundry basket, which we promptly put into a garbage bag and took outside. In the chilly rain, we saw a bunch emerge... we just tied that bag up and said bye to that laundry basket. I called the exterminator that afternoon told them all of the things we did and they sent someone out a few days later. The exterminator checked and treated every room, every bed, couch, chair, baseboard, and closet. However, he stated that he only found evidence in ONE room, which was my daughter's bedroom... where we found the one in her laundry basket. He also commented that there was very little evidence of them, even in her room... which means, we found them VERY quickly. Any time any of my kids go somewhere to stay the night [with a few exceptions], they know that they're required to come home, go to the bathroom, strip and put their clothes in a bag, take a shower, and do their laundry immediately... we have a basement bathroom next to our laundry room. That might be paranoid, but I never want to deal with that ever again! I was lucky the first time. It only cost me $350 and I have a [including the basement, because he treated that too] 1900+ square foot home. Spray AND HEAT TREAT is necessary. Heat will kill them every time.

These stories were absolutely SHOCKING and scared the daylights out of me. I cannot handle any bug whatsoever. I am glad I live in a house that was brand new and in an area that's cold (did I seriously just write that) most of the year if that's what it's like to live in warmer or swampier areas. (guessing) That's the stuff nightmares are made of. Thank goodness these exterminator guys exist!! Sorry, I would never date or marry one of these guys are anyone who lived in these places. 😱🤮

4:44 Lmao that clip is funny 😂

While standing in line for the Antiques Roadshow we were attacked by Asian Lady Beetles for hours. Every few minutes you'd hear someone scream as they were bitten. It was stressful since you didn't know when your turn would come. They're taking over from other species of similar lady bugs and we see them quite often now.

The “locust” house in St. Clair Shores is more likely covered in Mayflies….as is most of that area in the spring. They truly cover the houses and streets, and it’s a buffet for the fish in the nearby lake and river!

As a former rent a center employee i can say ive delivered to many many filthy bug infested hoarder houses couldnt even take a step with out roaches crunching under my feet

Omg, I have video from the early 90s of a ladybug 🐞 infestation in the home of my recently deceased grandmother-in-law, it was insane. I hadn’t thought of that in ages. We had cathedral ceilings with windows that actually angled with the roof line. There must have been some sort of gap up there cause all the sudden, for a week or two, there were thousands of ladybugs crawling up there both inside and out. I hated doing it but I had to vacuum them up. Ladybugs do not smell good when they’re vacuumed en masse. It’s been 30 years and I can still remember how awful that smell was. I can pick up on it when even just one ladybug releases it, it’s seared in my olfactory memory forever.

59% of homes have bedbugs but only one in five people deal with them that adds up

@ 2:55 when he said "bluhht" I laughed out loud. You don't expect that from such a serious voice 😂😂 in the midst of a video like this but it was absolutely fitting, and perfect lol

Your reactions to the bugs in these homes makes these videos fantastic😵😱😨😲😳

4:56 Me as someone who is terrified of spiders, I would say screw the house and throw gasoline everywhere and light a match

8:40 And this is one of the reasons why I'm planning on selling my current home and building a new one to move to... The new home I'm designing will have concrete floor, walls and roof...no wood will touch the outside soil so no Termites will be able to infest and eat my home... It's also HIGHLY Fire Resistant, so my Home Insurance Premiums should drop...WIN-WIN-WIN... 😄😁😆😅😂🤣

My father is a retired Pest Control technician and he has probably seen almost any type of bug imaginable from roaches, termites, ants, cicadas and the bugs I really don't like the most, stinkbugs.

The one with the cockroaches in the phone really got to me big time.

Sir don't burn down your house. 5:02 Oh wait now you can.

I witnessed Army worm infestation while growing up. You couldnt even play outside. Those guys were everywher on the grass like a wave of small caterpillars moving from one direction to the next. On the plus side they passed by in a week or two but can never forget the experience. Sam from Kenya

I’ve had 2 massive swarms First one I had was a lady bug infestation that went to the point there was so many ladybugs on my porch i couldn’t even see my porch My second one was when a horse died and millions of flies flew all over the place, it essentially had so many flies that some areas i couldn’t even see anymore because it was pure flies and note i have a bug phobia, so it was hell

This guy has the best voice for these videos still ,glad he's back

When I was a kid in Des Moines, Iowa we had a ladybug infestation. It was winter so we think they came into the house for warmth. We came home and ALL ceilings of our house were coated so heavily in ladybugs that we couldn't even see the ceilings anymore.

I'm not gonna lie. That clip of the ants is oddly satisfying to watch

One of my housemate few years back brought Bed Bugs into our apartment. She thought it was a good idea to host someone who have his own apartment infested by bed bugs... Yea you too find its dumb dumb, but she thought it was nice. I didnt knew about all of this obviously. When I first discovered, I was watching a movie on my bed late at night just having a good time before bed, when all of a sudden I saw a freaking bed bug on my sheet. I knew by the look of it that a nightmare did started. I knew how a bed bug looked like, and I knew it was one. In a panic mode, I flipped my bed over just to see a freaking family of those stupid bugs full of blood. Thanks god, not at the extend of what we saw in the video. ( I would have pass away probably of heart attack ) I didnt knew what to do on the spot I was panicking... I couldnt do nothing because it was past 12h00am... So on the spot, I learned that when you kill those stupid bugs, it stink badly. I knew it because I killed all of those that I could saw, but I knew I could not killed them all. I wrapped my mattress of plastic bag and sealed it completely. (dont think it was that helpful tho lol) The thing was I couldnt go somewhere else either because the last thing I wanted is to bring those nasty thing into a friends house or family member house. Well thats what normal people do, but not my housemate... This was the worse night I had. In the morning of the following day I called the exterminator and called my parents crying. When I knew the situation was over, I moved away from that housemate as fast as possible, not knowing what the next chapter it could be. I didnt wanted to know either. Turns out my housemate knew about the situation since the beginning. But she didnt thought it might be a good idea to notify me of the situation... She told me that she thought it would resolve by itself... lol Neither her nor the man that was sleeping with her that brought the bugs with him took responsibility. I had to take the situation into hands myself being obviously the only normal person there. I had to call the exterminator and pay all of it. She never excuse herself to me nor the owner of the apartment. A complete useless person. It was my last experience with a housemate. My trust just disappeared from this point. Now I live alone in my apartment. No trouble, no bugs, no BS, no noise, no problem. Its paradise. I still have nightmares about bugs and sometimes I might feel a hair and I have to look to confirmed its not a bug... I hope no one has to live this because it stays in your head for a long time.

I've actually been in a house that had both bed bugs and roaches just about as bad the infestations in those videos.

I like how all of his thumbnails are never clickbait this guy is the best!

I want to clarify one thing: harvestmen are not spiders, though they are arachnids.

15:10 I dont have words to describe the beauty of that beehive its wonderful these guys sjould be lucky because real honey is hard to come by. Funnily enough european bees are so tame and just entranced in their work with flowers you can even touch them whie theyre sitting on flowers and most of the time they wont give a fuck. Did it many times and only saw one bee so far that began pulsating its back to warn me. Probably its because we only hjave Bees that people kept for hundreds of years and trimed them on productivity and peacefulness

3:04 so am I the only one that saw that post-it note move by itself?? Damn these bedbugs.

I feel bad for anyone who has to deal with bedbugs! I’ve heard they’re next to impossible to irradiate. Last summer my cat got fleas, and that was bad enough. Took months to get rid of

Not only is your voice the best but your sarcasm is epic!! 🤪Meanwhile, I thought I could watch this and be okay but um....I'm still scratching!🤣🤣🤣

I felt my ear, foot, and neck itch at least 15 times watching this video just to see no insects and I was just imagining them. Wow.

15:15 Wow! That's a lot of honey!!! I'd say it was at least the most useful of the insects in the list

I love this channel... And it's good to see that this channel is about to hit a great milestone of 10M. ❤️❤️

One infestation that happened every few years in my hometown of Winnipeg (in Canada) was Tent Caterpillars (sometimes called Army Worms). They're moth larva, & swarm by the billions some years, eating anything leafy in sight, covering entire trees & bushes with their webbing like something out of a horror film. Looks eerie & amazing. The plants surprisingly get through the experience with little trouble & just regrow their leaves once the invasion is done in a couple of weeks.

Every so often a House Centipede will crawl out from my radiator and make me cringe. I've heard the bites hurt like hell.

My friend in Patoka Indiana (it was on the news you could probably find the footage) had such a bad bee infestation that honey was dripping down the walls. I would go over there and we could watch honey pour down the walls like some horror movie, but instead of blood running from the walls it was honey. I'm also allergic to bees and wasps so I didnt realize how close I was to becoming the actual movie "my girl" until the experts tore into it. a 2 story building with the whole left side of the house becoming one honeycomb.

Me and my siblings stay with our moms house for the week, and we go to dads for the weekends, but for a few years, we had to deal with bedbugs at both places because dad got bedbugs first, but managed to get into our stuff when we go back to moms, we had to unfortunately deal with that for 2 years before they were all gone... so try to remove every bedbug as quick as possible before they infest your entire home.

I've seen the ladybug swarms a couple of times in Muir Woods. I'm a bit weird in that it didn't creep me out--it was fascinating. I got tons of photos, too. They gather like that for two reasons, preparing for winter, they gather by the tens of thousands to keep warm under leaf litter. The other reason is mating.

When I was younger we had a ladybug infestation in my dining room (no one ate their tho) and we kinda let ‘em be and once winter ended they all disappeared and we didn’t see them again until it started snowing so now we just have ladybugs in our house all winter and it’s pretty cool

I live in Minnesota and in the summertime by bodies of water you can get infestations of mayflies. At night they're attracted to light so they'll cover the entire window on the outside if there's a light on on the inside. So many on the sidewalks that you couldn't avoid stepping on them. There have been times they were so bad that they've used snow plows to remove them off of the bridges so that the cars won't get in accidents. I kid you not

Where I live we call stink bugs, shield bugs… and I honestly kind of like them.😌

Now that was interesting I never knew snow fleas were a thing, man you learn new things everyday

The harvestman one would be awesome 🥰 they're adorrable and one of my all time favourite creatures!

I have an infestation to share, my mom’s bathroom used to be infested with ants (not nearly as big as these infestations though), and she would freak out whenever she saw one of the little dudes (I would often kick into guard dog mode until realizing it was just a harmless little ant, these guys don’t bite). She seemed to hate them so much, but wouldn’t call pest control due to it being inconvenient, despite everybody’s suspicions that there was an anthill in the walls. Finally, I managed to pressure her into calling pest control (though it took a bit of drilling to make her give in). She finally called them, but I don’t really know the details on what happened after (pretty sure the ants are gone). If you’ve reached the end, thank you for your patience, this video just reminded me of that story. Edit: I asked my mother about the ants and she said that while there was no evidence of an anthill in the walls, the ants haven’t shown up since.

I veeeery much appriciate the heads up about the spider infestation. While it may not be the most disgusting one, I think I'd die of fear having to face that lol

Damn the more this video goes on the more I remember. When I was a teen we had a nest on our oven vent and they were coming in the house that way. Me and my mom were terrified of bees and stayed away till we knew they were all gone. I have also had a bunch of lady bugs in my house. The orange ones that come before winter.

We have quite a few stinkbugs around all the time, but never like in this video! We used to live where we'd get swarmed every single fall by thousands of lady bugs. They eventually disappeared (under the siding, probably), but we'd find groups in corners of our ceilings.

The honeybees hive looked great! The other infestations did not! Especially the bed bugs!

Bug exterminator: im not doing that.

I have dealt with cockroaches, bedbugs, fleas, mealybugs and fruit flies all by myself for years. I am a single woman, now 62, and have rid them all myself between my home and my mom's and a couple of friends. What the first thing to do is 'fog' the house with raid. One can per room. Make sure the drawers are open along with all the other things it says. Wash the sheets etc. Then you steam the house and furniture. You make sure you do the baseboards, cracks and crevices. I even removed them from the furniture with spraying and steaming. No, it cannot be done in one day. But you keep cleaning, steaming and spraying daily. Then put down Diatomaceous Earth. There is also a night light that has sticky paste paper in it. They are atrackted to the light. Another thing is put down a bowl of water. When they jump in the water they drown because they cannot get out. Why waste money on the expensive terminators when you can do it yourself allot cheaper. Same thing with bees and fly nests outside. You get a bucket of water, put a peice of wood with either peanut butter, cat food or something they are attracked to on the bottom of the board. Then when the bees or flies go under to eat it, from them going up and down, they hit the water and again drown because they cannot swim. Good luck.

Several years ago, my husband and I found an awesome sofa at a second hand shop for sale that I just had to have. It fit the house perfectly and was a joy to nap on. Soon after napping on this sofa a few times, I started to notice these little blisters popping up all over my body. I freaked out! I went to the hospital one night because I was having some kind of an allergic reaction to something, and I had NEVER seen a bed bug in my whole life so that was not even a thought! As I was talking to the doctor about the little blisters, one started to form on my finger! I yelled out loud, "SEE!!! SEE these blisters!! It is forming out of nowhere!!" Well, thanks to modern medicine, they came to the conclusion I was crazy, prescribed some anti-psychotics and sent me home!! I finally found out that it was bed bugs and that I am highly allergic to the little nasties!! Also found out that there are some people who are completely unaffected by the bites, as in my husbands case. He thought I was crazy too, but he always thinks that!(LOL) I saw a you tube video about them, and found out that rubbing alcohol kills them on contact. I soaked the sofa in rubbing alcohol, and kept a spray bottle of alcohol with me at all times and sprayed the couch before I sat down, during and after I was on it. My husband also put baking soda around the couch and all on the floor under it, and around the bed. Before too long they were all gone, and I will never buy anything used again!!!! Those little bastards almost killed me! Imagine that, being murdered by a tiny little bug, the horror of the ordeal still gives me nightmares!!!

Getting the content of this is like having to do homework

Those stink bugs get EVERYWHERE here in MI. The apartment I used to live in wasn't sealed well at all so we always had stink bugs floating around. They'd die in the lights and collect, appear three inches from your face in the middle of the night, and my roommate said she had one fall into her mouth one night... They are so gross. Nothing you can do about it much either cause they're looking for the warm here, so they're auto-drawn to houses.

I have had a yellow jacket infestation. I walked into my bedroom and it was like a horror movie, yellow jackets covered the walls. They had made a nest in the second floor bay window. We had to remove the entire window and seat area.

If you have a ant infestation you need to put boiling water on them you can put the boiling water on the trails of ants of the nest . You should probably put the boiling water on the nest so you should take them out for good.

I’ve had my house swarmed with ladybugs several times!

I was happy to hear they removed the bee hive and relocated them all. I respect bees so much I would not want to puposely hurt one of them.

“Some say the bugs were provoked by the intrusion of humans into their natural habitat, that 'live and let live' is preferable to war with the bugs.”

I have to say that I've been schooled on locusts being cicadas. lol At least until they mutate. Thanks for this shudder inducing video.

For anyone interested in a low maintenance,small and cheap pet,Stink Beetles make surprisingly good pets if you don’t startle them.I prefer the bright green variant.

I moved into an apartment with them and they were the most hellish thing I’ve ever dealt with. And actually they can live up to 18 months without eating, not 5.

Is it just me, or do these videos make you start cleaning everything in sight in your house 🤣 Seriously, these videos give me anxiety. Why am I watching, I dunno lol

I really enjoy his voice and his banter...js🖤

I live in Georgia and when it was still cold, we had a large LadyBud problem. More or less, it was just a lot more then I I was comfortable with. They weren't that bad since the only Stade on the corners of my house and never really going anywhere other then that. I still find Laby bug corpses when I clean and it's been like a month and a half since they started coming

When my daughter was in the hospital there was a huge bug infestation of grasshoppers i believe or something... It was crazy they were everywhere i could not walk normal going in and out because i couldn't step on one... The feeling is so creepy!

We had to leave our flat as I was pregnant. We found an attic flat and paid 2 pounds 3 and ninepence a week. We started waking up scratching in the middle of the night and found we had bedbugs. I rang the landlord and he said we must have brought them with us. It was going to cost too much to have the place "stoved" so we bought some Secto and squeezed the powder in the beams etc. We moved shortly after thank goodness. Now that I live in Queensland I have the place sprayed and sometimes find a cockroach on its back, I can't move it till it's completely dead. I hate them.

the transitions to the houses are amazing

The massive spider clumps aren’t really that scary when you realize that they can’t hurt you in any way except mentally

Wow! I thought I had seen it all. When I was a little kid I had an infestation of ladybugs that had accumulated on all four of my walls in my bedroom, I have told my parent that there is a bunch of ladybugs in my room and of course oh, my parents did not believe me. Until she came in herself and had never seen that many ladybugs in her entire life.

I cant imagine going to sleep with bugs crawling all over the place like the roach and bed bug infestation in the first two.

Once i saw a river of ants passing on the wall at my house. I was a kid and was mesmerized and my dad said to leave them alone cause they were probably relocating due to some disturbance at their nest (you could see them carrying eggs and young ants), next day no trace left.

4:50 bruh I have arachnophobia but I have the balls to watch it

Has anyone noticed that almost every segment of this video has its title be an alliteration. (e.g. Bee Brave, Ant Attack, Cockroach Calamity, etc.) the only real exception is “The House of 100% Nope!”
