Kill bedbugs without pesticides: entomologist sleeps with bed bugs

- We put the #GoodKnight bed to the test: we released 400 bedbugs onto and around the bed, then I slept in it! I got no bites, and the entire bedbug population was killed in 9 days. This experiment is still going, and once it is done, we will have released 1200 bedbugs into the room to test the GoodKnight bed.

A friend said to me, "They are just bugs.". This person obviously never had to deal with them before. People don't understand how focused bed bugs are. They aren't just a regular insect. They come straight for you and they just want your blood, nothing else. They are basically wingless mosquitoes.
They're worse than mosquitoes in that regard, you can escape and handle mosquitoes but bed bugs are a nightmare to deal with
@@Alaskanman And bed bugs hide and plan their attacks. They are conniving little buggers.
My caretaker said this just this past weekend to me. They'll search you out definitely. I get up on the 2 week episodes of, oh okay i'm good now. I can take my clothes out of the bags. Then boom lol. Happens again and drops you right back down to the lowest peg. Expense adds up, but the diamatreous earth works big time. Still grab my flashlight every now and then searching the floor just in case lol
How do you use the dimatious earth ? And is it cat safe?
@@elizabetho874 Get the food grade stuff and it should be safe for all living beings. In fact you can even mix it with water to rid yourself of parasites. You want to dust it really lightly. If you apply it like thick lines, etc, the bugs see it and just go around it. A light barely noticeable coating is most effective. Gtet a bulb applicator to do this. Or whatever they are called. Look like ear syringe bulbs. Also, hit the seams of everything with rubbing alcohol in a mister bottle and keep it at. It kills them on contact. Keep going even when you think they are gone. Repeat these things for like a month or two every third day. Good luck, Elizabeth!
I'm a pest control tech and really the biggest problem we have controlling bedbugs is that customers almost always underestimate the complexity of the problem, we give an instructional document to clients before we even arrive for the 1st time. In a large house with lots of stuff in it, it is really a huge undertaking and a pest tech only has so many hours per visit - much of the work of vacuuming/cleaning/decluttering really needs to be done prior to me arriving.
Much respect to man in the video, you would not get me in bed near all those bugs, dead or not!
Seriously, scientists - we live in 2021! Get it together lol
hi dude, how likely is the treadmill get infested？
So this means that burning the house down should get rid of them?
Yes it does 👍🏻

It also going to kill ur house sadly
thanks
right
99.5% isn't good enough
Yes, for bed bugs it has to be 100%!
I've used a simple trick and they've gone 100% you can see a sample video on my channel. I wanted some bed bugs to do more experiments but can't find a single one.

Is it medicine? Where I got it? Please help me I have affected by bed bug
That one bedbug that survived is now a superbug, and heat resistant.
This is cool, but what about other furniture? Those suckers hide everywhere; on wood, in the cracks of wood, basically everywhere. The only reason they’re called bed bugs is because they live close to their host (you) and munch on you when you sleep, but they can and do get much further than just a bed. It would probably be cheaper to have someone come out and heat up the house to ensure they’re all gone.
I feel like every apartment every hotel should be equipped with one of these because it's is mad hard to get rid of them once they are there and this is good prevention
Another reason why they didn't bite him is because they might not have chosen him to feed on , when I had bed bugs in my house they chose one person out of 10 people, that person was me and I mean every single bed bug fed on me and my siblings and parents were never fed on, I just want to put this info out there
Jessica Ross-Robitaille that's true some ppl skins react and others don't ,I heard fairer skin reacts more
I know how you feel. They feed only on me and not my husband.
Sharing same feeling
im also a victim of pest insects, but not bedbugs .
FLEAS! only me and my father lives on our house, but im the only one that gets bitten.
Thats the story of my life they only feed on me not my husband. Total bullshit. I guess it is true huh? The darker the berry.....smh😭😭😭
after watching this, i found myself very itchy.. i had goosebumps 😣😣😣
Fact "the bed bug are paid actors
This freaking bed bugs are really a actors it will act like dead and then when you throw this on floor it will start to move this fuc*** bed bugs are really devils 😭
The glue traps are a nice idea to keep them from getting into the bed but it won't do much good if the bedspread touches the floor or the headboard touch the wall because they could just get to you that way too. I've heard they will actually crawl to the ceiling then deliberately drop onto the bed! Paratrooper bed bugs!
yeah that's true.. They drop
So THAT´S why I keep getting woken by shouts of Geronilmo!
@@timwarner705 LOL
Ninjas. Ugh.
If only my bedroom didn't have stuff in it like this room.
Joey: is it on me ? I feel like it's on me 😂
Its in u
Friends one!
Funfact : you thought he would sleep with bedbugs,or he may give a solution to get rid of bed bugs,but later you realize he is promoting the good knight bed
Yes 😂
I also thought he was going to sleep with those bugs and it creeped me out. Crap! Now I’m itching again. Why do I watch
these things? Argh!
Y’all got nerves of steel to do this job
Am I the only one that felt stuff crawling all over my body watching this 😂🤨
🕷BED BUGS ARE FROM HELL🔥
My whole body is itchy just watching this. I wouldn't sleep in that bed forever.
What about all the bed bugs in the dressers, walls, crevices of the floor boards, vent, electrical sockets, under rugs, door frames, picture frames, etc
Cimexa dust
Steamer
My exact thoughts
Diatomaceous Earth on the floor and sticky tape when they try to climb on the bed. Make sure the bed is pulled away from the wall that they only have one way of climbing - that is the legs and that's where they are caught on the tape. I had used several different methods for treating my bedbug infestation. I was bite free after a week getting proactive. The method is the video only works if the bed bugs are in the bed, not when they're hiding in the baseboards, dressers, carpets, pictures frames and later come out and feed on you when you're sleeping.
A trusted pest control can do it best
I lost 3 days of work about 3 weeks ago due to a severe reaction to bites, my whole arm turned red, hot, itichy, and I had blister like bumps all over my arm.
azgal001 I've had calls from people that experience a medical emergency if bitten. So sorry about your difficulties 😟
same. got bitten 3 times in the same area about 1 and half inches away from each other. they swelled up so much that it merged together and was like a big puffed up sunburn that was hot and firm to the touch. now im like my own bedbug detector. i cant imagine several hundred bites. probably end up as the pillsbury doughboy or michelin tire man
@@rtgbhreth mine reaction is the same !!! The worst thing is that now there are in my home... I have to do something because I can not imagine live with these bedbugs and my allergy to them !!
Same issue here. Ended up getting 2 biopsies from my dermatologist since she didn't know what was going on.
These bed bugs know how to hide!!
Bad bugs was painful , I did never get one day good sleep in 6 months but thanks to my big brother he did find a way to kill them all
How????
Howwwwwww????. 😭😭😭😭😭 Bro..
Plzzzzz 🙏🙏🙏 plzzzzzz 🙏🙏 tell
Plzzzzzz tell you get rid of them 😫😫😭😭
how?
THIS is human intelligence at its best! The idea is so way out, it's way in!!!!
Thanks for your kind response
Okay, how is the not sold everywhere?! This is awesome!
They live everywhere in your house not just bed
lol they will still come to your bed to eat blood.
Sleepy Cobra No they will typically stay within about 15 feet of any area that people remain sedentary for long periods. If you had them all over your house then you let the infestation get really really bad and didn’t act.
SleepyCobra-- You are sort of correct, which means you are also somewhat incorrect. The bugs do NOT "live everywhere in your house", and they DO live "within 15 feet of area where people are not in motion for long periods", as Dalton points out here. So this is the problem about this product that Sleepy & Dalton stopped short of clearly saying--- since they live not only in your bed but also NEAR IT (specifically under the baseboards on the wall), this very expensive heating blanket only kills the ones living in the bed.
Yes..politically motivated to hurt you..
Wat about thier egs?
It gave me creeps to see all them bugs on the bed.. 🤕
Syed M D Imam Tim did 3 releases of 400 every 2 weeks for 6 weeks. He found sleeping there was disturbing. It's no surprise that bed bugs can make people become delusional. People report using sleeping pills to deal with the sleep disorders it causes, or just to be able to get sleep given their chronic infestations. The pill and pesticide industry is well positioned to produce clients. How many people are losing it, as sleep deprivation will kill you faster than starvation? There is a serious need for the GoodKnight technology to become inexpensive and widely available.
I bet you they only go into low power mode and wake up whenever the temperature falls down
Back in the days people used hot water to kill
NOPE. Splitting an atom much simpler
Alcohol kills them on contact
When he was taking the sheets of the bed I know some live ones fell in his head
I believe it but look at the room you are in! No where for them to hide so this test will not compare to a real home because there are more, alot more places they hide than on the bed! So you are killing the ones on the bed but thats not stopping any hiding in a base board etc!
But how would they climb up to the bed lol kl
This is why I've always like summer. Bedbugs are hibernating since every summer i dont get bitten
Never seen this big fat bed bug in my country, thats huge man
In the GoodKnight universe, the living deadbugs will envy the dead.
Brian Pan And in the hospitality realm the living guests should be dying to sleep in the security of a GoodKnight bed. After all, a hotel room where bed bugs live and thrive makes for nightmares of midnight escapes told in traveler's reviews resulting in rather dead and unhappy vacations.
Where and how much can I buy this thing for and does it come in all sizes ?
I wonder if smoking the room and bed with Wacholder/enris would kill off and desinfect, as we did on the farm for bugs in the vegetables.In any case, cleanliness is always beneficial, as well as good air circulation and thinking, since the atmosphere makes out much. Not letting any area be on its own for too long.,, but rummage in stuff so as to not have bugs like it there.
I guess if you live in a house with steel floors and nowhere for the bugs to hide except your bed this will work but in reality bedbugs don't live exclusively in the bed, they go there to suck your blood then run back to the cracks in the wall and under the carpet.
that's why there are bedbug traps in the bed
After he kills them all on the bed he’s essentially using the bed with him in it as a trap. Any of the ones hiding elsewhere will 100% eventually come to the bed. Hence the glue traps used after killing every one of them on the bed. Dealing with these devil bugs makes you think like a hunter/trapper. You have to outsmart them. It’s extremely painstaking and nerve wracking but with diligence, patience, and unfortunately money it can be done. I would also use the bed post traps along with double sided tape around the actual posts just in case as a double barrier. You can put baby powder in the bed post traps so it makes it even more slippery for the bugs to escape from the actual well that traps them. Then you can take pleasure in torturing them however you please. You can also make CO2 traps out of a soda bottle, water, sugar, yeast and a few other household items. You put them around the bed. CZcams them. They’re cheap and effective.
Ingenious... Now I bet they are trying to figure out how to make this affordable for hotels. $$$
Wow. He's very brave.
I feel so helpless I literally feel
These things crawling all over me I’m losing sleep I’m going crazy I need to be in a hospital these things will drive you insane 😭😭😭😭😭
It happens so fast, they're the spawn of the devil
Im sleeping in my bathroom tub thinking about my next move.
@@dollitaa8032 your next move is to hire an exterminator I had an exterminator come out to inspect and found no evidence at all I did find tiny blood spots on my pillows but no other evidence they won’t treat unless they find substantial evidence and bites are not enough I’m going absolutely crazy and they think it’s all in my mind or Iam hallucinating bed bugs are the damn devil and people say you can’t feel them crawling on you that’s a LIE
I was suffered from bed bugs for almost 2 years after all the treatments. It was gone when I use insecticides for mosquito and I spray it across the bed and voila none of them survived lol
I don't care what it costs, I want one!!! For a full size bed please.
What of those climb on handing clothes for those who have no closets???
Shouldn't you have a gap between the headboard and wall? Seems like they could get to you from climbing up the wall and onto the headboard.
i hope like HELL he did major protection measures before the left that room, like making sure they weren't stuck to his foot,, and basically shaking out his clothes (or wearing no clothes at all!) to come out of the room! LOL
Great product- too bad it's not available to buy. I went to their website (6 years and 2 months after this video was posted) and there's no sales or pricing information still. So great job teasing people with an item that will probably cost so much if it's ever marketed that the average person won't be able to afford it anyway.
Where can I get this bed cover? And how to fill air in it and how to increase temperature?
Needs this when staying at cheap hotels in Manila!
I've had my house sprayed by a professional 1 time a month for three months. I haven't seen any signs of them in the last 2 months. I don't know how long I need to have them spray. It's so expensive.
Ellen Parks if the pco is using Crossfire then 3 months should get rid of the problem
Yeah but it was worth it.
@@daltonwade9441 it worked
@@ellenparks5096 Congrats!
VOCs, volatile organic compounds, make chemically sensitive people sick, and others get sick without knowing the connection. Heat actually drives off VOCs and can actually improve the our home environment.
Due to the increasing resistance of household bedbugs to insecticides, there is a growing interest in using the Pharaoh ant to combat them. This is particularly worth considering in places where there are persistent recurring bedbug infestations. This method involves biological control of household bedbugs using Monomorium pharaonis.
My bed is 2x the size of that GoodKnight bed but i'll try the glue trap because it looks good to use.

does this guy enjoy his job>?
idk why but i feel kinda bad that he has to do this
I dont
Heat is definitely the best way to kill bed bugs. This product looks interesting but a whole room heater would do the job in one heating session.
just to reminds, bed bugs take 1 of those lil shit to conquer your whole house. so yea, if they not all dead, I would never settle
why do they feel like the bed bugs are only in the bed itself? Don't they know they are also around the surrounding bed? They need more education.
you're showing a video of disgusting bugs crawling all over a bed.. to sell a bed?? ... and i effing want to buy it?!?!!
i think you just won advertising
+hunterrat How's your GoodKnight treating you? You can now enter comments for the first masked testimonial at czcams.com/video/sV4-O9gXUfY/video.html
GoodKnight Self-sterilizingBeds LOL
hunterrat I think you're missing the point. The bed is for people who want to get rid of bed bugs or stay bug bed free.
Hunterrat--- Were you texting while trying to watch this video? They are not selling a bed, they are selling a heating cover to put over YOUR bed, that kills the bugs. Wake up RatBoy.
Dirty pigs
Wait. What happened to the bugs on the floor?
Did you give them time to lay eggs tho?
This makes sense, I used a hair dryer to kill off bed bugs. Saved me buying a new bed.
What happened to the bedbugs in the corners?
Hope I never ever get them but if it happens I hope this is available and affordable.
The bed wad so pure
It's nice if you have a solo bed like that how about bunk beds?
I ordered new sheets from Walmart, the package was infested with bedbugs and I found out too late. I have a steamer in wheels, it works but it's a lot of trouble
I watched this just after killing about 50 bed bugs hidden in my bed.. and was just about to sleep.. and now after seeing these bugs crawling all over i feel as if they are all over me..
Yuckksssss this is soooo disgusting..
What do bed bugs look like
Isnt there some kind of gadget you can buy that attracts them and then zaps them like a mosquito zapper except its not a light or heat device? Or a device that repeals them so they want to leave your house?
my question is, what or who did they use to feed all those healthy bedbugs before they put them on the bed?
Charlene Lauder Dr. Richard Naylor is the "who". He supplies bed bugs for research .... cimexstore.co.uk See him in this video on bed bug pesticide resistance …. czcams.com/video/3mSrXodXZhA/video.html Insecticide Resistant Bed Bugs BBC
Can this chamber be used for regular beds?
It’s really sad that I have to watch this!!
Where can I get that?!? Lesson to be learned here is that you should NEVER by 2nd hand furniture!
The heater is very expensive!
Soo is it possible to get this bed? My first bed has been infested with bedbugs and then we had to burn that whole bed. And now I think my second bed is infested
Well this could work as a preventive measure and treating the beginning of (aka low) infestation. In the beginning they are in the bed, after some time they start to move further and further from the bed... So, I guess once a week as a preventative treatment...
Yes, you can stop newly arriving bed bugs and never know your success or the pain averted. Even the ones that move further away, as you say, need to come home for the midnight snack. You can say GoodKnight / checkmate to them as well.
They might be hibernating how did I get here
What i learned: it takes alot of effort to kill bed bugs
Tip: if you want to clean ur sheets blankets or sheets, wrap them in a black plastic bag and put it under the sun in the summer. :)
I feel itchy while watching this
Very good information about this bed bugs
The heat is the bulletproof treatment for bed bugs but still an expensive treatment
I used home remedies in the past and it worked
I will upload soon a video about 3 step home remedy for bed bugs...
bed bugs killer, problem with heat is there isn't a residual. If it's not done properly and just a few are missed which is highly probable. Then back they come.
I'm now itchy...
Use hot steamer with lemon peel and spray at them they instantly gone.
Plz tell me details.... cz I gonna mad with bedbugs
This video gives me goosebumps
Ok so this explains why there's no bedbugs in my hometown, 50F is normal temperature for at least 3 months out of the year
Not 50F. 50C. That is 120F.
What about bugs hiding under the mattress rather than on top of it?
What about the ones he put in the corner
where do you get one of those?
How many scientists have all that energy just before sleeping?
My mom ran what was basically a flophouse in our rented old farmhouse from 1980-1984 and guess what? ZERO BED BUGS, HEAD LICE, BODY LICE or any bugs. I wonder where the modern infestation has come from...

Genetic evidence collected shows that the bed-bugs infesting households in America are not domestic bed bugs, but imports. This explanation is as yet the most plausible for understanding the bed bug resurgence.

What if they got into a vehicle, what would be the best way to do this? How about sand fleas also?
What happened to the .5%? Was it on coma?
wat if you Iive in an apt and you see the bed bugs crawling under the door.
Move the fuk out lol
Tea tree oil, green alcohol and water spray everything with this mixture
What happened to the once you dumped in the corner???
You wouldnt have bites right away. It takes a couple weeks for your bodies reaction to show the blemishes. Bed bugs dont just live in the crease of your mattress either.
Hilton definitely needs to use these on their rooms!
0.5% of the survived bed bugs should be proud of themself
how on earth do people sleep with those
Watching this maid me feel mad itchy
I about yelled watching him put them on his bed.
Looks expensive, but I spent $70 on a single 400ml bottle of temprid sc to spray for bedbugs and I thought that was a bit pricey and that was just one thing I had to buy to kill them out of multiple different tools and pesticides that I had to buy . I imagine that this runs $200 + price range but that's probably cheap compared to the amount of money I spent on killing those things. I probably dropped $400+ before I got rid of them. I bet this would be a great tool to use once a month for bedbug prevention?
The GoodKnight doesn't abandon you for next time! And for people living in huge co-housing buildings the probability of a chronic problem is likely given that so many people don't react to bites and are unknowingly producing bed bugs. And because of the evident failures of the other options. Hands down, early investment in a GoodKnight saves money while giving you the upper hand on bed bugs for immediate relief as well as for the long term.
the 0.5 percent bedbugs that was not found is making an army in the corner of the room to take revenge.
Daniel Transition the experiment used only male bed bugs. The three releases were to simulate population waves of new hatchlings.
I should have added a very good dehumidifier will kill a lot of them as they need moisture to survive. But it doesn't seem to kill all of them and that is what you need to do.
