home depot has an insecticie labeled just for bedbugs. You have to spray evrything. Incase your mattress and boxspring in plastic. You can get them at most furnishing stores. Alcohol is good but I ound that green alcohol works best. On the bottom of your furniture you have to remove the material on the bottom to spray correctly. Leave the material off for a couple of days and spray daily. Place pilows in a garbage bag and spray before sealing. Bedbugs are at a infestation mode in 2009. You can’t getaway frojm thm. People buying these reconditioned mattresses and furniture are being led into this roblem. We din’t really know what diseases are being bred but it’s about time hat the CDC get’s involved. Until than we have to fend for ourselves. Good Luck, because if you don’t talk bout it people won’t know about it. Be prepared for a national emergency. Seriously.

I had them everywhere i tried sprays and all kinds of products until a man told me about silicon dioxide i put it everywhere and on my carpets , base boards you name it and they are all gone ! Read the directions on label and and youll be bug free !! I still have the powder in cracks and refuse to clean it up just in case they come back !! Hopefully they never come back !

@_@ Me and my wife have been just pulling our bed away from the wall, surrounding the bed legs with double-sided tape (We make 4 squares surrounded with tape that we put under each leg) and we got the mattress encasements for any that are still on the bed~

Unfortunately, we’re both still getting bit up +_+ I’ll give the vasoline thing a try and maybe even that Thyme thing~

I’m a landlord and I called in the exterminators, 4 times in a 2 month period to get rid of the bed bugs….I spent a couple thousand…and I’m not spending anymore ! This is a government issue as far as I’m concerned, as it’s an epidemic. There needs to be some kind of mass treatment subsidized by local governments. These treatments that I paid for did nothing to rid of them.

All you need is to have a guest over who has a bed bug on their clothes or on their crotch and it’s all over. The whole apartment and building will become infested with the blood suckers.
I like the person who recommended to seran wrap their mattress, spray alcohol on the bed frame, carpets and cracks, and apply thick at the legs of the bed.
This sound logical and it just might work.

The rubbing alcohol DOES work. We wiped the kids at bedtime nightly. Petroleum Jelly around the ankles and thinly on the feet.. they seem to prefer feet here.Boil water, fill a spray bottle, fill another with alcohol (rubbing) and attack alternating the two. Cover mattresses and boxsprings in plastic *i love the plastic saran wrap idea* and was EVERYTHING… every single piece of clothing in the house… repeat the alcohol and water assault daily… this should help. No one can afford to toss all their shi…tuff…stuff out in this time of poverty! With couches? Cover the cushions in tightly taped garbage bags, buy couch covers wash those weekly, daily if needed…. the key is to keep the house cool too, they hate cold!

Last month I first started getting bit and I thought it was happening at work considering it’s a community setting and my employer have been dealing with them for over six months! Well, I checked my bed one Sunday Morning and found one in my bed ruffle! I threw my bed away, bought bed bug spray, used a bed bug fogger, got rubbing alcohol and etc. Still getting bit but have not found any. I even had an exterminator come by and found them in my living room suit that cost over $1000(had it less the 4 years), threw that away! Talked to my superviser about the problem and was under the impression that they were going to remburse me the money I had to spend as she told me to save my receits! 2 weeks later my superviser give me this stupid reason for not giving me my money back, “The exterminator said aint no way I could of took it home because the bed bugs are nocternal!” Well how else would they have got to work if that was the case! I am pissed and is now looking for another job after being there for almost 4 years, this is the thanks I get! I need help before they take over my house!
