Top 3 Reasons Bed Bug Problem Continues

Excessive clutter is very high on list of top 3 reasons your bed bug treatments don’t work.

Number one, by far is the wrong treatment method. If you are using pesticides your chances of solving a bed bug problem on your own is near zero. Even with the help of a professional exterminator your ads of winning against bed bugs are extremely low. What we hear all the time from our callers is “I thought I had this done. Bed bugs were gone for 2 weeks, 2 months or even 8-12 months an then they returned …

Well, sometimes you or someone visiting you might be bringing more bed bugs into your home but that happens very seldom. What happens most often is the pesticides you continue using ( the repellent component in the pesticide ) simply keep sending a message to bed bugs that it isn’t safe for them. The repellency does not last forever ( 2-4 weeks from each application ). It does not kill them and it hurts your and your family’s health a lot more than it hurts bed bugs.

If you decide to have this done professionally or by yourself using the ambient heat method the chances of eliminating bed bugs are higher than by using pesticides but far from what you expect and way below our standards which is why we abandoned this method of treatment 7 years ago. The biggest problem with the ambient heat method is how complicated the proper application of it is and the complete lack of residual protection. Meaning, even if you were one of the few lucky people who could get rid of them with the ambient heat treatment, there is nothing to keep bed bugs at bay if even one is reintroduced or even one survives the treatment.

 

Number two.  Not following directions from the bed bug professionals you hired or hiring professionals that give wrong directions.  That point is closely related to the previous one as people using low-success methodology will have very little knowledge of proper post-treatment protocol.

Top 3 Reasons Why You Still Have Bed Bugs After Treatment

After a bed bug treatment, the risk of reinfestation remains high, even if the initial treatment appears successful. Chemical treatments, commonly relied upon, are especially problematic because they only offer short-lived results. The chemical residues left behind diminish quickly, often lasting mere days or weeks, meaning any surviving bed bugs or new ones introduced can easily recolonize the area. This limited residual effect makes chemical treatments one of the least reliable long-term solutions.

Bed bugs are resilient, and many have developed resistance to commonly used pesticides, further weakening the effectiveness of chemical methods.

Not every bite is a bed bug bite. Just because you did not see it the previous day, it does not necessarily mean you received that bite while sleeping or that it is bed bug-related. And, well, the search online might most likely lead to confirming your bias. Stay informed and avoid misinformation as we debunk common bed bug myths.

Understanding the biases in online information about bed bugs is crucial. Many sources are from self-proclaimed bed bug experts who lack proper background, education, or experience, and simply seek attention through your clicks.

The pest control industry plays a significant role in pest management. Professionals and pesticide manufacturers provide essential services and products, but they also have a vested interest in promoting their solutions. Bed bugs present a very unique problem and require a unique approach. Let me know in the comment section how many of you have heard about the IPM ( Integrated Pest Management ). It is a true game changer as it removes most biases and places emphasis on a skill rather than a particular product itself. The skill of identifying the problem insect, and knowing its habitat preferences, feeding habits, and life cycle.

 

DIY Bed Bug Treatment

The Benefits of Using Steam to Fight Bed Bug Infestation

When it comes to tackling bed bug infestations, homeowners and professionals alike seek effective, safe, and immediate solutions. One of the most compelling methods is the use of steam. The benefits of using steam to combat bed bugs are numerous, with immediate results being one of the most notable. Unlike chemical treatments that can take days or even weeks to deliver very modest results in the reduction of bed bug population, steam kills bed bugs on contact. High-temperature steam effectively penetrates mattresses, furniture, and other surfaces, ensuring that bed bugs and their eggs are destroyed instantly. This immediate action not only halts the progression of the infestation but also provides peace of mind to those affected.

Another significant advantage of using steam for bed bug control is the avoidance of dangerous and often ineffective pesticides. Many chemical treatments can pose health risks to humans and pets, and over time, bed bugs have developed resistance to several commonly used pesticides. This resistance renders chemical treatments less effective, leading to repeated applications and increased exposure to toxic substances. Steam, on the other hand, is a completely non-toxic method that relies solely on high temperatures to kill bed bugs. By eliminating the need for harmful chemicals, steam treatment ensures a safer environment for families and pets, while also being eco-friendly.

One of the most empowering aspects of steam treatment is its accessibility to homeowners willing to educate themselves and put in the effort. With a quality steam cleaner and proper guidance, individuals can tackle bed bug infestations on their own. DIY steam treatment offers a cost-effective alternative to professional extermination services, which can be prohibitively expensive. Online resources, instructional videos, and detailed guides available on our channel https://youtube.com/@BedBugExterminator1 provide the necessary knowledge to use steam effectively against bed bugs. This do-it-yourself approach can not only save money but also allow homeowners to address the problem immediately without waiting for professional intervention. Please note, I’m many cases steam should be combined with other tactics ( monitoring devices, encasements, etc ) which are fully described on our channel.

The ability of steam to penetrate cracks and crevices where bed bugs often hide is a crucial benefit that sets it apart from other treatment methods. Bed bugs are notorious for hiding in the smallest of spaces, including seams of mattresses, behind baseboards, and within furniture joints. Traditional ambient heat treatments WILL not reach these hidden areas effectively, no matter how high the temperature or how long the heat is applied. Steam, however, can reach these elusive pests due to its ability to flow into tiny cracks and crevices, ensuring comprehensive eradication. This penetration capability ensures that no part of the infestation is left untreated, providing a thorough and effective solution that other methods simply cannot match.

In conclusion, using steam to fight bed bug infestations offers numerous benefits, including immediate results, avoidance of dangerous pesticides, and the feasibility of DIY application. Steam treatment ensures comprehensive eradication by penetrating deep into cracks and crevices, effectively reaching bed bugs where other methods fall short. For those seeking a safe, efficient, and cost-effective solution to bed bug problems, steam treatment stands out as a superior choice. With the right tools and a little education, homeowners can confidently tackle bed bug infestations and reclaim their homes from these persistent pests.

For those of you who do not feel comfortable or are unable to do it yourself , please contact us for a fast , complimentary quote and description of the benefits ( immediate results, full house preparation, non-toxic treatment, and a full 12-month guarantee ) that come from using our services.

3 Steps To Successful Bed Bug Treatment Room Preparation

Welcome to our latest promotional video showcasing the importance of proper room preparation for effective bed bug treatment without the use of ineffective and dangerous pesticides. In just three minutes, we reveal essential tips and strategies to take back control of your home and save you thousands on ineffective bed bug extermination costs and failed treatments.

This video is a must-watch for homeowners, renters, and BRB and VRBO operators. Effective bed bug extermination using steam and other non-toxic methods starts with thorough room preparation. Proper preparation ensures that extermination treatments reach all areas where bed bugs might be hiding.

Start by decluttering the room to eliminate hiding spots for bed bugs. Remove all personal items, clothing, and linens, and wash them in hot water, then run through a dryer to kill any hidden bed bugs or eggs. Vacuuming the room, including the mattress, furniture, and carpet, is essential to remove any loose bed bugs and eggs. Proper room preparation is a critical first step in ensuring the success of bed bug treatments and preventing future infestations. Room preparation also enhances the efficiency of steam treatments, one of the most effective non-toxic bed bug extermination methods.

Steam penetrates deep into mattresses, box springs, and furniture where bed bugs often hide. However, the steam can only be effective if it can reach these areas. Ensuring that all furniture is moved away from the walls and disassembled, if possible, allows the steam to access all potential hiding spots. By removing barriers and obstacles, the steam treatment can be more thorough, increasing the chances of completely eradicating the bed bug infestation.

This thorough approach not only improves the effectiveness of the treatment but also reduces the likelihood of needing additional treatments, saving time and money. Moreover, proper room preparation promotes the safety and effectiveness of other non-toxic bed bug extermination methods, such as diatomaceous earth and bed bug interceptors. Preparing the room by cleaning and clearing these areas allows for precise application, ensuring that the powder reaches the bed bugs. Bed bug interceptors, placed under the legs of beds and furniture, work best in an uncluttered environment where bed bugs are forced to cross them. By preparing the room thoroughly, you enhance the efficacy of these non-toxic treatments, ensuring a safer and healthier environment while effectively eliminating bed bugs.
