That stress will never be forgotten
No freaking kidding
You are so right about the stress these things cause. The bites have practically no effect on me physically, but the mental strain is real.
The shame when my nosey neighbors seen this pest control company with all that heat apparatus for heat treatment. After 18 months I still have some bites! I don't want to give them to anyone else!!!! I never feel safe. I step out my door in heat dryer clothes and shoes! Even that is tiring.
Yep
@@wendi2819 I called and talked to Jason. Ordered crossfire and used it. Free in Apartment building. It works. I had very bad reactions. Blisters, itchung worse than poison ivy, oak and sumac together. I'm a 4 gen logger. I get poison so bad in places you shouldn't like face, eyes, privates etc. Here on east coast they're on all trees and grow up the sides to the top sometimes. You can't burn it, rip it off etc. That oil lasts and lasts forever. I've had clothes in a bag for years and still got it after removing and soaking in kerosene. Ice was only thing that helped BB bites. It was hell. My wife and kids was fine with lil bumps. I thought it was a mosquito or whatever until I got bit and it blistered in hours and oozed and lasted a week. It was HELL. All cause a friend had them for 2 years and never said a word cause they was embarrassed. Sleepless nights with a headlamp and a handheld microscope looking at everything. I had to take off work cause I wasn't sleeping for days at a time. Wife wasn't sleeping. We tear bed apart, mattress etc. Thank God for Jason. It's been 7 months and we finally got back to normal. Between a fire last Dec 2021 then this BB crap its been hard. Just follow his advice and do what he says. Don't waste money on heat. Wash all clothing, fabrics in hot hot water. I boiled big 3 gallon pots and washed all stuff like that.
@@wendi2819did you get rid of them?
*Insert Minecraft Cave Sounds Ambience*
thank you for this video. i have severe clinically-diagnosed PTSD from fleas and bed bugs. the bed bugs affected my mental health so much to the point where i considered leaving this world and i’ve lived in constant fear of having them again because just like you said, we have NO CLUE where they came from, even 6+ months later. i have regular panic attacks over the fear of getting them again and watching this genuinely helped so much.
I'm going through this rn it's torturing me and driving me nuts I can't handle it anymore
I felt that way you can get thru this I have
It’s been a year. Update??
I know how you feel plese know it's going to be ok once this is over they are not in control of youre life you are.
I’m so glad I’m not the only one, I been so stressed out that I got some bad anxiety from them. So bad someone said they saw a bedbug at my job and instantly started crying and freaking out thanks for talking about it openly for the ones who don’t have a voice to talk about it ❤️
The stress is real! I had them years ago and it was hell and I just found one on my wall a few mins ago and I’m freaking out 😓😓😓
How did that end up turning out?
how is it going
I stayed in a hotel one night. I wound up with over 300 bites on me . I’m severely allergic and almost died. This was December 14, 2023. I’m permanently scarred. The financial despair this has put me in is unreal. I clean homes for a living and lost 9 weeks of work. The emotional, mental depression is not getting better, it’s getting worse.
I'm so glad I ran across your video. I have been dealing with bedbugs and fleas for four years now. I'm truly at my wits end and don't know who to turn to or what to do anymore!!! It has affected my mental health, my relationships, my stability, my pets, my trust and faith in Doctors, made me question my sanity and now is affecting not only my pets physically but but myself physically as well. I have spent so much money, trying to seek out help for my pets as well as myself. I've been told it can't be that bad or had doctors never look at my proof or even examine me, but just laugh at me and tell me to try over the counter lice shampoo. Family and so-called friends tell me it's not possible, and I'm crazy. All I ever do anymore is try and clean my house, throw stuff away, wash and treat my animals, myself, and the yard!!!! Plus, I can't talk to anyone or seek out any help because I'm afraid of the same responses that I've received for so long. I really don't know what else to do.
Sincerely,
Sharise Radtke
I’m so glad I found this video. This hits home so much. I am struggling mentally knowing I have bed bugs. But I am going to be able to get rid of them without having to throw away furniture. You are an amazing human being. Bless you and your family.
I feel you
How did ya get rid of them..Heat or spray of some sort?
He is right. We have not had a chance to purchase the Crossfire yet (waiting on payday) the very fact i have found this channel and the advice he gives, the testimonials in the comments, the great reputation his company has... my fear and anxiety has reversed into determination and confidence that i can fight them finally.
Don’t forget to come back and ask for any advice you need when you get to treating and let us know how successful you are!
6 years of dealing with them, Got them from a friends place that got a couch they bought from someone that had them. Now going on 8 months free of them. We both are SCARED FOR LIFE!!! The stress and PTSD is REAL! We both had to start from nothing to stop them!
How did you finally get rid of them?
We have had bed bugs for months now. As soon as we realized we had bugs, we had an exterminator come out and treat them but it has taken 4 months to get rid of them so I totally understand the stress from them. I now have a fear of not being able to be rid of them or bringing them into my home. It’s crazy and it sucks but I’m doing all I can to prevent them again.
Cherrypickingfever?
And giving them to others is my worry!
And when ppl want to stop by and see our kids. Before we never thought twice. Now we do. It's a real mind game.
What did the terminators do to treat
I am currently using Crossfire right now and treating my entire house, and I can't tell you how relieved and happy I am that I found your videos! Thank you!!! We've had bedbugs for years also, when we moved into this house they were living in the walls and we had no idea as a matter of fact I hadn't even seen a bed bug in my life and didn't even know what they looked like until we moved in. And then my daughter started getting bit. We tried everything!! And I mean everything!! And we were talking about moving and literally starting over with nothing not even the clothes on our back because we were gonna have a new outfit waiting for us and we would change outside before going in our new house 😆. But then I found you!!! Hallelujah!! You have taught me Sooo much, and I finally feel empowered to kill these things once and for all!! And I can't wait till they are all gone so I can finally have real furniture again! Thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️ Yes ptsd is real, and bedbugs will surely give it to you, but watching your videos will take the ptsd away because it gives you your power back!!
How did you do?
May god please bless you and hope you get rid of those bed bugs for ever. Can you update or replay if it actually worked for you because my family is in the same situation
Now God has delivered me from this problem& all that goes with it. He is Faithful, cast ALL these cares upon Him for He really cares.
Fear ,bugs must go in Jesus powerful name.
He is truly greater than any bedbug..
Thankful for strength God gives , peace & rest , Crossfire, Green Akers too. GOD IS SO GOOD.
It's high time we trust Him who is our King, Creator, Savior, bf, our Evrythg.we need FULLY!
It’s 2 AM where I’m at right now, I haven’t been able to sleep in 2 months. This has and will scar for the rest of my life. I just ordered crossfire and I’ll come back and update you guys.
At the end when you said that I will be able to help others once I learn to get rid of these pest, you really helped me get more at peace. I’ve watched a lot of your videos. Thanks for everything you do boss.
Did you get rid of them yourself? If so, how often did you spray crossfire?
Yea I have a phobia because of these dam things I'm afraid to go anywhere and sit
I haven't slept properly in two weeks
I can't believe that I searched for this but I feel so heartbroken.
I had bed bugs in my last apartment and got rid of them, or I thought I did. I live in Sweden and if you rent an apartment the landlord is in charge of extermination. The exterminator said that they were gone. They used some type of powder. I doubted it because I had done some research and I knew there could be eggs left. But they didn't listen to me and since the landlord was in charge of course they didn't want to waste any more money on the issue. I had a lot of the powder left in my bed frame which is probably why I didn't get any more bites.
Later I moved to a new apartment in a better area. I threw away the old bed. The last couple of weeks I have been getting single bites. I wasn't sure if it was bed bugs but now I'm pretty sure and it's devastating. I feel so embarrassed to tell this new landlord about the bed bugs. I'm scared to go anywhere risking to spread them around. I'm scared to have people over. Me and my boyfriend started talking about having kids soon and I have to say no because of this. I couldn't live with the shame if my baby got bites from the bed bugs. I already have a lot of issues with my mental health and this is the last thing I need..
I just don't know what to do.
don't sit back hire some one
@@Chichi-mo2pc I followed his advice. He knows what works. Most exterminators not have a Gurantee.
You are correct it's been so much stress from bedbug bites to car accidents. Those people don't understand the after "TRAUMA" a person or persons endures from these careless acts from others.
I am in tears and exhausted from the stress and worry..with no sleep, as I am writing this at 1:00am. For a month, I thought the bites and rashes were an allergic reaction to soaps...but nope found them and the dark spots (poop). The apt.maintenance sprayed my mattress and box springs.I have now mattress and box spring encasements, and have entrapment trays under the legs of the bed, and pillow cases with the zippers. A week later, have spotted 3 live..2 in the entrapment cups, and 1 in a plastic drawer..This anxiety is killing me.
The stress is real!!! I’ve barely started getting bit for two weeks and I’ve gone crazy! Lack of sleep. Because i swear they’re crawling on me @ night under my sheets. Our exterminator came out yesterday. But I still am not at peace 😖
How did it go after the exterminators visit?
Thank you sir! I had bedbugs in late June till early July. Initially, I thought I can get rid of the bugs myself and bought a lot of sprays ( Harris, Cimexa and over the shelves). I also bought a steamer. Unfortunately, all these products did nothing until I started to throw away my sofa, carpets and bed. While throwing these items, I then found the bed bugs nesting on my carpet.
While battling bed bugs, by pure rotten luck I was hit by a flea infestation in the house caused by an empty bird nest. I was so stressed and only god knows how mad I had become. I gave up fighting alone because I was bringing pesticide on my handbag that I decided to called up pest control and even engaged a sniffer dog to detect if I had eliminate the bed bugs - I know this is not 100% effective but I welcome any methods to at least give me a piece of mind.
So I had the pest control to come in by 15 Aug to do ULV Misting and dog inspection. The dog gave an all clear of bed bug activity (throwing stuff works but I’m left with no furnitures) and did a second ULV misting on 29 Aug.
I’m almost on my 9 week bed bug free but I still have flea bites though they weren’t as bad as the initial infestation. I just can’t wait for these fleas to die... anyway, I also believed the igr has affected the newly emerged fleas as I can’t seem to spot them but only feel it itch after it bit me.
PTSD... yes I admit. Very afraid to sit on booth seats now and I stopped buying things online as I don’t want to get boxes in the house. I know the fleas will all soon hatched and die but I still doubt it could be bed bugs.
Hope this pandemic will be over soon and able to manage my fear properly.
P/s most pesticide available in US are banned to be used in Singapore. So have to called the pest control. Lesson learnt, get help rather than spending all the over the shelves pesticides.
Xoxo,
From Singapore
We’re they able to get rid of your problem 😢
It's true. Every time I see a dot on a wall or table I freak out and run over to inspect it
This video is a blessing! I woke up over the weekend with what looks to be bed bug bites AGAIN. This will be the 3 time. I’m going to take your advice and invest in several cans of this stuff.
Im going through it right now…first timer 😭😭
@Rightmeow623 Same here, and I'm terrified. I can't sleep or eat for worry , and people are not interested how upset I am.
Had my apartment infested with bed bugs, I paid for the exterminator my building management company used. Had to buy new mattress covers, pillows, pillow covers. Wasted every item of clothing I owned, treated all my shoes. $1000 dollars, six month later finally done, then pandemic hit. This is starting to feel biblical. 😝 But I have major stress and people noticed. I really had a hard time and would rank bedbugs high on my list to smite the enemy.
Same, I used to have a flea infestation, now I have a bed bug infestation
Yeah the pandemic stopped my regular exterminator visits to my condo. The property manager stopped them for over a year. Never had roaches or bed bugs until now! It's been a nightmare dealing with both and exterminators can't keep up!
@@GiftofChaosStudio How do you think you got them? I have a girlfriend who lives with me and her mother has them. She brought them over to my apartment. Currently they are spraying my apartment. Girlfriend and I are breaking up because she told me she will not stop going to her mom's house which is completely infested! So I feel you!
@@wilchambers1401 sorry but better without her. If she'd get her mom's treated with crossfire and give it a couple weeks and video chat this wouldn't be an issue. I'm sorry. Some ppl don't get how big this issue is. Takes 2 or 1 preggo one to hitch a ride to your place and now your out time, sleep, money and a HUGE BIG JOB OF BAGGING UP ALL FABRICS, WASHING, DRYING, FOLDING, SPRAYING ETC.
How did you treat your shoes
A much needed video. They literally take over your life. So my story is my uncle and his wife came over and I saw them (multiple!!) crawling on him! They got mad at ME for pretty much kicking them in the ass when they walked out the door. Of course, 3 weeks later I'm seeing onsies and towsies on the couch because he sat on my couch before I noticed them crawling. I have isolated the couch away from the wall and have interceptors at the legs. They also sat at my kitchen table chairs (yes, I unscrewed the chair cushions from the chair frame and found 2 on the one he sat in - quickly killed and have seen no others there). But how many crawled into the baseboards before I knew? I am so disgusted with them for doing this to me. I got a steamer and have not seen any on the couch in 2 days...praying!
Funny how I'm the bad guy to them when they KNEW they had them. I am livid, and I will never forgive them. NEVER! I am contemplating suing them for the cost of materials and mental anguish. I cannot fathom why would anyone would KNOWINGLY come in someone's home with bed bugs. It's selfish at best, and just plain evil.
Honestly, they should create a sort of scanner to put at the enter of the house that would detect the presence of bad bugs in the clothes we are wearing or stuff we are bringing into the house. Please if there is any engineer that could work on that this would help so many people.
I wish they'd invent a pill people could take so when bed bugs drink human blood it kills them, just like we have for dogs & fleas.
Amen to that. Something.
That’s some crazy tech
It’s been years since the bed bugs in my house “left” I now have PTSD like symptoms anytime I see a picture of them.
I'm going through this right now. I've had the issue about three years ago ( I live in an Apartment with a 65 year old disabled mother) & I have my own health issues. The landlord legit "sprayed" one room , three years ago and that was it. Now within the last few months lately , they've come back and what scares me the most is the BITES. How can one sleep with these painful BITES? It be different if they acted a little like roaches... roaches are mostly annoying but BB actually BITE and they HURT. That's where my stress comes from.. and thennnn knowing how HARD it is to get rid of them is what makes it even worse. I've tried everything and I'm living on a budget. What if that cheap 5 dollar solution is all people can do at that moment? Times are hard. I deff agree and hear what you saying with going ahead and paying 50 but..when you're struggling or in a bind , sometimes that's hard. I'm sitting here at 2:29am , crying. Can't sleep. Refuse to lay in my own bed. I've found two of em over the last few hours. I've actually killed both with rubbing alc and picked em up with toilet paper and flushed down the toilet. My leg is shaking as I type this statement and my landlord could care less. So the stress for me is not the "not knowing" or "worrying if I'l pass em on or if someone else will pass em to me" it's more so "this is going to be PAINFUL and hard". I have back pain , hard enough to lift the mattress alone and go wash a ton of clothes over and over again. So I'm just.. idk how to feel. I kind of feel defeated. To anyone going through this right now or have been through it , I sympathize with you and I hope and hope we can and will overcome this sooner than later.
I’ve dealt with them multiple times in NY. I was in the same stressful situation as you. It is overwhelming and you can feel defeated and hopeless. The best way to defeat them is to have a hunters/trappers mentality. You have to really use the direct contact treatment to eliminate any visual infestation. Crossfire is the best. This guy attests to this all the time. Once you clean up most of the bugs that are out in the open you have to treat your bed frame, mattress, box spring thoroughly. Make sure you spray it liberally. Spray in all the tight crevices and cracks. Even if you don’t think a bug could fit spray it. They love extremely tight spaces. Buy the bed leg plastic traps so no other outside bugs can get to your bed after you spray treat. Make sure your bed is an island(not touching any walls). Make sure your blankets don’t touch the ground. Spray the perimeter of your bed. You have to think that you’re one big trap. If there are bed bugs in your room or house they will 100% eventually come to you. They need blood and you are the meal. The traps will prevent them from actually getting to you. The perimeter spray of crossfire will kill them. You want to spray all around the room. Baseboards. Any tight space. You need to do this treatment spray around the room and perimeter again after 3-4 weeks. 2 weeks if you are paranoid and want the spray to have stronger concentration. Check the traps every morning. I would feel confident after not seeing any bugs after 1-2 months. If you have an infestation you have to do this in every room where someone sleeps or spends most of their time. Just remember to always think of yourself as the bait for the trap. You have to outsmart these evil devil bugs. Stay diligent and persistent and you can win the battle. It’s not easy but it can be done. Once you deal with these damn things a few times you eventually become somewhat of an expert on them. The key to dealing with them if you realize you have them again is EARLY action. They breed and reproduce insanely fast. I realized I picked one up on an airplane or airport and got bit. Immediately recognized the bite patterns and extreme itching (mosquito itch x 10). I immediately took action and defeated them in one treatment. Once you start seeing them in the open during the day you have a major problem. Best of luck to you!
I followed his advice and have been BB free since last December. Talk to a local church, community action, human resources somebody to help pay for crossfire.
May god please bless us all who are dealing with this type of situation I hope you have got rid of them 😢
I am just starting with this nightmare..I am 75 and have lived in a senior and disabled apartment for 11 year's..no problem's until my elderly neighbor ( there are 4 600 sq.foot apartment in a unit) got sick and had her daughter come to take care of her.. evidently her daughter brought the Bed Bug's from the trailer she had been living in.. so far my apartment and 4 other's have a infestation... A week ago we all were heat treated.. except one lady refused to let pest control in.. the daughter is still in her mom's apartment and has been in and out of the apartment that was not treated..I have wall that ajoin the apartment.. I'm not going anywhere and have not had anyone in.. tonight I found 2 small bug's on a love seat where I sleep..now what ? 😢
This video caught my eye because I actually had a similar issue but with a snake. I personally considered it trauma and PTSD, but wondered if I was just exaggerating.
I had a snake in my home and I came within one foot of it in my cabinet. I was terrified. This was months ago, and yet every single day I check and check cabinets. Before I go to bed I check around my bed. My closet. It happened months ago but yet, the PTSD is still there.
All that to say, I feel validated in that with this video. Thanks man.
I work in home health care and yesterday the other nurse I was working with had found a bed bug on this guys couch in which I’ve been sitting on for weeks. I’m so mortified at the thought that I’ve brought them back to my own house. I had even brought my bag which’s 100% polyester and my clothes into my bedroom which I had worn in his couch. I have the most horrible paranoia and anxiety to the point where I feel like I’m going insane. I have an inspection tomorrow and I’m so scared that they’re going to miss something or that it’s some how too early to tell if my house will become infested. I feel so unsafe in my own home.
i had a 3 month infestation. i just got my house heat treated and i see white eggs days after. no bugs just eggs. i sleep maybe 3 hours out of the night and i have extreme anxiety from it. i still feel like i have them. even tho i never see them and i’m very anxious. i’m now a clean freak and have a bottle of lysol by my bed side
Lysol will just be a cologne to them. make them lemony fresh.
I'm in the exact same spot right now. Have been dealing with them for three months. I get about three hours of very unrestful nightmare filled sleep a night. I really feel like this could end up making my heart completly give up on me. Chest pains started about a week ago and haven't gone away.
@@gofastER This is me RIGHT now. It's 2:20am , found 2 few hours ago on my bed. One crawled right by my ear. I live in apartment where my landlord sucks. I've had this issue before 3 years ago but they've come back full force. I am supposed to be sleep I already have chest issues and other health issues and now im sitting in my laptop chair too scared to lay down on the bed and go to sleep. This is really killing me slowly. I got the DE , rubbing alc 91% , bed bug spray , ortho spray , I've washed stuff.. gotta re wash certain stuff on top of being BROKE. Smfh... I am at my end..
@@gofastER Stress is a killer. Breathe. It'll be ok. Follow his advice. He's a Saint.
I know exactly what you mean I had a heat treatment done but it never worked I'm still dealing with them.
5 years with bedbugs, still haven’t treated them yet, but I just want to appreciate you so much for all the help! I can’t wait to kill bedbugs with crossfire.
5 years????? oh hell no! You done infected like 2 states with your buddies you got!
@@youcanlearnsomethingjustli38 5 years without doing anything sounds unreal to me. I call pest control the minute I see my first one!
treat them they will take over your whole hoyse
WHY?! nope. the first night I got a bite I took care of it or worked to find solutions. NO WAY wait 5 years
Im going through it right now. Its the worst thing i think ive ever been through. Growingbup, i didnt even realize it was a real thing. Now, a friend of my sons brought those things into our house. Ive been figjting this for months. Thanks for your videos! I dont mind spending the 50 on the crossfire as long as it works. Its a small price to pay for peace of mind.
im going through this too such a nightmare
I'm tortured by it. Very stressful. I wish there was a place to talk about this issue with other people.
Bless this man he is such a brave soul also I'm currentley dealing with cockroaches and honestley they are not as bad as bed bugs there annoying as hell but still not as bad as those DEMONS!
I have ptsd from my bedbug experience....but during those sleepless nights, I did my research....which is how I discovered Green Acre Pest Control. You are my hero! I learn so much from your videos.
Hi Jason. Great video. I'm one of those people who have been dealing with bedbugs for over 3 years. I'm mentally exhausted.
I won't make this long. But my crossfire will be here Oct.1st. I did try it before without success.
I will look at your videos about crossfire. I'm the one who asked if you would do video calls. I need help on where exactly in my bedroom and apartment to look.
The bad thing. I spreaded these creatures to work. My co workers won't sit or touch anything I touch.
I just come home daily and cry.
Thanks for reading.
Same here.. I hope it gets better for you.
Spray a barrier, not a big area. Around outside of bed, baseboards etc. Follow his advice and I promise it will work.
Please be strong!! We are all suffering. I have to take anti-anxiety meds after I found out about bed bugs in my apartment.... Please be strong!! Pray for each other.
Thank you so much this was the most helpful video I’ve ever seen on CZcams in general. You truly showed how much you care and provided the best advice b/c this is such an anxiety ridden experience. I’ll be buying this pesticide ASAP !!!
Did this cross fire work for you? Please respond 😢
I am dealing with Bed Bugs right now and I am pretty sure that I got it from my neighbour downstairs, due to some reasons.
I found your Chanel and I found it very usefull, I hope your Videos will help me to get rid of them. Right now I don´t have a Bed or a couch, I sleep on a the flour cause I thought if I throw the Bed, I get rid of them, because it was fresh but now I think they went somewhere else. I saw one on the Bookshelf.
Thank You for making these Videos, it is very difficult to find well Informations and Greetings from Vienna.
I just found a baby one under my bed. Father God please help me.
It's traumatic, wish I had found your videos sooner (only been about a month). Appreciate the reassurance. Thank you!!
Thank you for being here :)
How did it go?
Thankful to find your channel, unfortunately I am dealing with a bb problem for past couple months. Initially I attributed the itching on my back as a side effect of a new medication I started. So I had instant denial, bb were farthest thing from my mind.
A little background.
About 2 wks a go the itching became so intense, at night I couldn’t sleep. I live alone so I positioned a mirror to give me a view of my back. I was horrified to see I had a minimum of 5o bites. Most I had scratched them and made them worse.
I have a bad back and sleep regularly in my recliner. I throw a sheet over the recliner.
During the night when I sleep. It occurred to me that I wasn’t having itching from changing my meds and started my search. I only found a couple of bedbugs, but enough to realize I had bed bugs. I am totally mortified, and fearful to sleep.
Oh I also began sleeping in a clean fresh long sleeve shirt and long pj bottom. ( I live in a warm climate & general sleep hot). I wash all clothing & bedclothes daily. No dirty clothes ever
Initially I vaccum cleaned my furniture an applied crossfire. Each morning I removed the sheet from the recliner & followed by crossfire. All laundry washed & I did this every day. I pulled the laundry off my recliner and laundered. I continued my research and saw many people steam clean the furniture because heat killed. I began steaming every day washing bedding later. I have worked for the past with this system steaming the chair I sleep in and fooling with crossfire.
The intense itching and resolution of bite sores felt better after 3 days
My PTSD is of a range o1 to 10 being highest a solid 10. I can barely sleep. I terrified to go anywhere. Not sure how on earth I got them. I’m mortified to confide in anyone.
My plan is to continuevthe steaming followed by crossfire on the recliner for 4weeks. I follow that by washing bedding & clothes I have worn. I am so mortified and anxious if I feel even the slightest itch make my paranoia off the chart.
Again thanks for this information.
Whatever I have my body has given a actual stress response too. Thanks
We have been dealing with bed bugs for 2 months. We’ve done everything which I know through your videos probably made the problem worse. We finally called an exterminator and did a heat treatment followed by Crossfire and then Aprehend. We got rid of our bed, chairs, couch, rugs, curtains and blinds. How can we be certain they are gone? Our children and grandchildren won’t come to our house until they know for sure they are gone. We are pretty sure they are in our neighborhood. We live in a lower income area and most of the houses on our street are rentals. Recently at least half of the houses have had beds or other types of furniture out for garbage disposal. I am very scared that we got them walking our dog because he likes to sniff around a lot. We’ve stopped going on the sidewalk and now walk in the street but I’m terrified of re-infestation. My husband says we should just Crossfire our house once a month to be safe. What do you recommend? We bought a brand new bed and have both mattress and box spring in encasements. We have a new couch which they treated with Aprehend but our dog keeps pawing at it like he did when we found the bed bugs. I’m terrified that our new couch now has bed bugs. What do you suggest?
The stress dealing with these pest are real and I kno because I had a horrible infestation to the point everything I saw even lint drove me insane sleepless nights constantly scratching what makes it worst is I had bed bugs for yrs and didn’t know until I spotted one I thought I was getting bit by mosquitoes if you never dealt with them consider yourself lucky and if you have dealt with them you WILL NEVER forget the trauma that they cause and bed bugs don’t come from filth or an unclean house I have ocd and still picked them up and didn’t know even after 7 yrs I still have ptsd any bug I see I panic trust me you do not want to go through this at all
Agree
Honestly I don't know what I got going on right now I think my old dog has fleas and Im just a little crazy because I don't have bites like that but this has made me think after being an EMT for 20 years about all the elderly people and people who can't afford an exterminator and I think about how stressed they are Im thinking that I want to become an exterminator and donate my time to some people
Im going through the trauma rn. I finally got rid of them but i can still feel them crawling all over me even when im not home. I havent made an appointment but i believe it caused me nightmares of them crawling all over me. Im scared to sleep in my room, ive lost alot of sleep. The stress is all too real. If you see any, get rid of them immediately!!
The stress is very real. I’ve lost sooo much sleep over these GD bugs. I’m sleeping in a tent in the backyard right now.
Lol
Ppl don't get it unless they've been through it. Like ppl in a fire, my wife and I are Vets who both served in war time. So we get it. But it's very real. Ppl can see no arms, legs in a chair but can't see the mental scars. We was in a fire in apt building trapped and had to get out a 2nd story window with 2 small kids. They've been affected by it and bugs. It's very real. Now we question every package, person etc.
I'm disabled and my Mom who has an adjoining apartment is 86. We have bed bugs and have been doing everything you said don't do. I am sooo stressed out, I can't eat, can't sleep. We need help. :(
I finally sprayed crossfire yesterday after 4 months of literal sleepless nights due to them. I slept like a baby last night fully confident in crossfire. Woke up to some bites but 9 bugs were dead in my sheets this morning. Is this a good sign?
How is it going after 4 months?
Great sign. Wash sheets and spray bed all around top, bottom all around outside.
Thank u you have helped my family thank u finally getting rid of bed bugs
thank you for your videos. i'm moving out of my apartmen onec i get approved for another place. and i'm not taking much with me other then my cats my clothes and the cots we currently sleep on. i'm going to talk to you tomorrow cause i paid for a consultation with you. i know you'll explain things well to me and give me some hope that i won't bring any of those creatures with me.
Riverview Apartments here in Alpena Michigan it is through the Housing Commission they have bed bugs really bad through the whole building and I had to treat myself just to get rid of them and what I did it actually worked I haven't seen one I haven't been bitten so could I not on
The stress it caused me made my right hand to Seize up, I have got rid of the BB but my hand still cannot move
I buyed cross fire thanks.
From Amazon but it’s not sold or legal in Canada
I love spiders r cuz they eat other bugs. BBs are a whole different thing. I canceled all my holiday plans. I can't think of spreading them. It's too horrifying. Every possession I look at and wonder if its the thing that will harbor them and make them come back. Then I throw it away because nothing is worth it.
Thank you 😢😢😢😢😢😢😮
Bed bugs have messed me up pretty bad
Same here. I keep thinking they’re gone and then they come back. The internet is full of terrible advice and conflicting information too which makes it so much harder to know whether or not what you’re doing will work. So glad I found this channel though. I’m starting crossfire this week and hopefully it works.
Hi Jason so itch and now getting paranoid aswell help
Thank you so much! YES, STRESS!!! Thank you for setting the record straight, I thought Diatomaceous Earth killed them, and was great to use while I was waiting for my CrossFire to arrive. It's finally here! Thank you so much! DOES VINEGAR KILL THEM? DOES BAKING SODA KILL THEM?
How is it going
Vinegar and baking soda do not kill bed bugs
i think its wise to make it a regular thing where you treat your home every month. even if you dont see any. take precautions. Im going to order crossfire soon. I pray (Not really pray) that it works. im done. exhausted mentally and emotionally to the max.
This is great advice
I feel the same way! Sooo exhausted! Good luck to you! I pray for everyone going through this! 🙏🏽
Yeah I've got terrible insomnia now
i wouldn't wish this on adolf hitler himself or any dirty rotten politician because it is hell.
Mr... U are an Amazing human being 🙏
I was legit sitting in my chair and then I saw 5 bed bugs sitting on my shoulder, yes ofc! I jumped up and was terrified for 2 seconds!
Hi! We've had bed bugs for over a year. Last spring and summer we saw a few,maybe 30. We tore my house apart, cleaning. We put our mattresses and box springs outside and vacuumed. We washed clothing, sheets, etc. and put them in plastic bags. We called Terminix. They did their thing. We still had a few. But...I feel like they are crawling on me. No bites, just the crawling feeling. We saw them again and I have ordered the product you recommended, Crossfire. But I feel the sensation of bugs crawling. And at times, a biting feeling. Any suggestions? Thanks
I am going through this right now, any updates? Did you get rid of them?
I think part of my anxiety is I'm in Canada, and my landlord keeps hiring an exterminator who isn't using Aprehend (crossfire isn't available here), and so it feels really hopeless. I don't know what to do.
Yeah I don’t even know how long I had them because I never saw them other than once in a blue moon but then I put on a mattress encasement and started having about 10 of them crawl up to me every single day. I literally just started sleeping in my car some nights just because I couldn’t handle the thought of knowing that bugs be crawling up to me every single night. Chunked my bed and frame out because I don’t think they were salvageable especially after that encasement sabotaged me. I just sprayed crossfire everywhere and hopefully that was the end of it.
Thank you for the valuable information.
Iv got the bb problem right now i cant get to sleep im scared to sleep on my bed, the srress is so real the worst thing is i have seen 3 bugs and they really dont look like bbs they are tiny grey ish and blackish i havnt seen any legs on them like on the pics but i do get bites that are just like these evil bugs and the sting is really bad, i wash my bedding nearly everyday my cloths socks towels everything, iv put everything in plasic pest control has been out but im still getting bitten, i have my fan on i got one next to me on one side and one on the other side and leave them on all the time, that has been helping but its only been 3 days with the fans. Iv put sticky tape on the legs of my bed which is wooden and not like the divan beds but i caught no bugs, iv now put baking soda around the legs of the bed it says that kills them iv got a new mattress with the plastic still on it the bed is away from the walls but i still can not figure out how the bugs end up on me 😭😭. I really feel for anyone going through this you will never know the stress it causes untill it happens to you (i hope not). Oh and iv been putting petroleum jelly all over myself i know ppl will think im crazy and i admit i am going crazy these bloody bugs are sending me insane. Plz ppl try your best to keep these bugs out your homes. And good luck to anyone suffering from this
Thank you for the stress relief
I hate bed bugs.
I've just found out I've got bed bugs I was stressed I bagged up all the bed sheets in black bags thru them out the house thru the window moved into spare room for 3 days my daughter booked a pest man he treated all the bed rooms and my downstairs living room and told me I have to sleep back into my bed I thought how can I these thing drinking my blood leaving my clothes bloody that day I brought new bed cover and went into my bed I was scared I cried I prayed before I got into bed and thought these are only tiny creatures I'm bigger I covers my legs and feet and chest but left my arms out so they can come out of hide first day felt crawling second day started getting less no blood on clothing might need one more treatment but don't worry contact a prof
I haven't slept in 3 days I'm exhausted
Hello! I’m really hoping you see this message/question. Thank you for you service in helping so many of us get rid of bed bugs. I’m moving in less than a week and have followed all instructions and treated my old apartment. My current concern is how to treat my books. Should I buy a storage bin and treat the bin? My other thought is to buy Saran Wrap, treat it, and wrap the books in Saran Wrap. What are your thoughts?
Don’t treat books. Just leave them in the room where you sleep and treat the bed that way they can crawl over the bed out of your furniture and die
I'm scared to death to go anywhere.. I fear any bug imaginable
This bugs are the most dusgusting overpowered blood sucking creatures that i wish they never ever existed. They gave me all sort of trauma and anxiety and still messing with my head.
Great information thank you
why is crossfire not legal in Canada i had an exterminator come and they used big heaters i had to leave for 24 hours i asked the guys why don't they use crossfire and they had no clue what i was talking about this was a little over a month ago since then i have found 3 live bedbugs should i be worried? and is there a loop i can use to acquire crossfire?
To my opinion if u see 3 bed bugs. There's more. I've had them I sprayed everyday on my owe. For 3 weeks. Have not seen a one.
What products will do the same action as crossfire in the UK please help me
Question when using crossfire how long do you have to stay away from the house after a treatment
Until it’s dry
One word to describe bedbugs. Horrific. I also will say roaches are awful as well. We have lived in a few apartments over the years and at some point we have dealt with both.
I don’t understand how I’ve slept with bedbugs but never wake up with any bites
Currently dealing with bed bugs and the company my landlord uses hasn't killed them. The waited 2 weeks to do a second spray
Thank you SO much for this. When you say we have the power to get rid of bedbugs ate you saying we have the power by buying Crossfire?
I use crossfire and haven’t regretted one bed bug job since switching
Are you having any success with Crossfire?
My friend bought bed bugs to my home. I didn't know she had an infested home
Is Crossfire still working? Should I steam my molding/vents? I’m in KS & loosing my mind! I’ve paid a ton of $$$ to get my house treated. One hotel visit & my life has been terrorized. My tech came from a long time company in my town & was the laziest asshole I’ve ever met. He refused to treat my whole house & said it would actually be illegal for him to spray every baseboard. I’m an old lady & im having to do most of the work myself. He’s treated 3x over the last 2 months & promised every single time they were gone. I’ve also lost all my furniture & bedding.
im experiencing this right now and its really stressing me out. i always make sure to clean bed corners every night before bed and will see few more bugs! its extra hard on me because i have skin disease and its itchy like hell
I’m so glad I ran across this video. I considered suicide when I found one AGAIN after 6months of not having them. I fear I’m an unfit mom for having my kids in a home that has bedbugs. I just ordered crossfire. My house has been in bags since 2weeks ago I got a pest control person to come and the last spray they did was Monday and tonight I get home and I found some more 😭😭 I felt defeated but then came across your videos I feel some what relieved. I have bad anxiety due to these bugs. 😭😭😭 I found some in my couch tonight and my bed don’t know where to sleep considering my bathtub as silly as it sounds that’s just how not at ease I am with these things ☹️😞
Many bugs take longer than just one day to eliminate. Roaches take months. Fleas take weeks. It’s completely normal to not eliminate bugs right away. Just be patient and understand you’re better than them and will eventually eliminate them. Some homes take 2-3 treatments a month apart.
No man you were freaking me out
Dealing with this now driving me insane 😢
I feel really comforted by this video. Cause I also got that anxiety and stress but never considered actually calling it trauma or PTSD. But yeah when I’m jumpy at little movement I catch in my peripheral or hear things and check constantly for bugs, I gotta admit to myself it’s trauma.
Me too. My anxiety was bad enough before but now it’s through the roof. Today was my first chemical spray day from an exterminator booked by my landlord. I can’t sleep and I can’t eat.
How’s your situation going right now?
How do you handle them in a semi truck
Same as a house or car
Loved ur advice .what do I do? recently I have been super paranoid about the slightest chance of having bed bugs bites I can't tell the difference anymore if it's flea bites or spider bites Or actual bedbug bites
how about if you get bed bugs in your laptop? What should you do?
My apartment management don't even take my calls anymore. they say they put me on a list and will let me know when they plan to do something about these bedbugs, but in the meantime I have to live with them. I have described them as microscopic Freddy Krugers. I'm up all hours of the night until I just can't take it anymore and fall out, waking up every 2 hours or so wondering if they got me and how bad. I lost my air conditioning because it leaks into the apartment so I can't run it. Now that's two things I can get any action from apartment management on. If it gets much worse than this I may as well just live under a bridge or something rent free. A fly came in today and I didn't even try to kill it, I tried to make a deal with the fly to kill the bedbugs for me in exchange for whatever it is flys like. This one seemed to like to crawl on my arm and I wasn't bothered by it until it tried to crawl on my face.
You do see the bed bugs though don’t you?
@@GreenAkersPC . Yeah, even catching a few and keeping them in a clear plastic jar. I sleep on my sofa and keep white towels on the ends where my head and feet rest. Easy to see them on white. My sofa is brown though.
If you were allergic to them, you’d have fear.
Had Exterminators come last week and they used chemicals called Stryker and ProFlex. Is Crossfire a better chemical to use? If so I'll try using that stuff to rid the blood suckers.
Crossfire is unlike anything I've ever used for bed bugs
Cimexa, is it a repellent? I'm not sure if I have bed bugs cause I have not seen any but we get bites every now and then. I have had these things before and they really stress me out. But I can not find them. Can I treat my house with Crossfire even if I have not found the bugs?
Damn I felt so hopeful watching this and then I realize I can't get crossfire in canada 😅😅 Anything similar I can purchase in the great white north?
czcams.com/video/EClRjaD2yvs/video.html I got you my northern sis
I am Canadian. I used Ebay. It worked. Good Luck.
I clicked this video thinking Id get some reassurance about bedbugs or stress management tips but what I got was actually even better.
Wanna know why I'm not afraid of bedbugs? CAUSE WE CAN JUST KILL EM BRO.
alright, got it.
