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.

The Shocking Risks of Ambient Heat Treatment for Bed Bugs Part 1

Think ambient heat will eliminate your bed bug problem?

Think again! While it sounds convenient, ambient heat treatments often fail to reach the required temperatures in hidden areas like cracks, crevices, and furniture where bed bugs thrive. Worse yet, some bed bugs may even survive, leaving you with a recurring nightmare.

In this video, we break down why relying on ambient heat isn’t nearly as effective as you might think—and what better alternatives are available for long-term results.

Another critical problem with ambient heat treatments is the use of insufficient equipment. Proper bed bug extermination requires specialized equipment that maintains high temperatures consistently throughout the treatment area. Many DIY solutions and even some professional treatments fail because the equipment used cannot sustain the necessary heat levels to penetrate all the areas where bed bugs may be hiding. Bed bugs can burrow deep into mattresses, furniture, and wall voids, and if the heat does not reach these critical areas, the pests will survive and the infestation will continue. Heat sinks present another challenge in the use of ambient heat for bed bug extermination. Heat sinks are areas or materials that absorb and dissipate heat, making it difficult to maintain the high temperatures needed to kill bed bugs throughout the entire space. Common heat sinks include large pieces of furniture, thick walls, and insulated spaces, which can create cool spots where bed bugs can survive. This uneven distribution of heat can result in partial treatment, allowing bed bugs to escape lethal temperatures and re-infest the treated area once it cools down. Finally, a significant drawback of ambient heat treatment is the lack of residual protection. Unlike chemical treatments, which can leave behind a residual effect that continues to kill bed bugs over time, heat treatment only affects the pests during periods of high temperatures. Once the heat dissipates, there is no ongoing protection to prevent re-infestation. Bed bugs are notorious for hitchhiking on clothing, luggage, and other personal items, which means new infestations can occur easily if preventative measures are not in place. This lack of residual action means that heat treatment often needs to be repeated, adding to the cost and inconvenience for homeowners.

What Bed Bug Exterminators Don’t Want You To Know

In this video, I will expose what bed bug exterminators don’t want you to know.

First. Did you know that over ninety-nine point nine percent of companies doing bed bug treatment use pesticides? They know these pesticides are highly ineffective and can be more dangerous to you than bed bugs. Some of them also know that it is the repellent component in the pesticide that brings temporary relief as it scares the insect away. It doesn’t actually kill it unless you drown the bed bug in it.

The temporary relief comes at the cost of spreading the infestation to other rooms in your house, hotel rooms, or adjacent apartments as the insects try to get away from the repellent component.

Watch this video to learn why and how to avoid this mistake. They ask you to prepare your home for the chemical treatment they provide for three reasons. First, the prep work, if done correctly, takes a long time and requires a lot of resources. To move furniture around may require at least two physically able people.

At K&A Pest Control, we recognize the importance of proper home preparation and the limitations homeowners may have in doing it themselves. For that reason, we provide complete home preparation for our clients. Since we don’t use any products that are dangerous for you, the homeowners can relax in the adjacent room.

Any person with minimum physical ability or training can handle a can of spray. That means they save the time and cost of a minimum of two people showing up for the treatment.

Second, after they finish spraying, they may offer you a thirty-day guarantee. They know very well the repellent component in the pesticide will most likely push bed bugs into areas they did not or could not spray and keep bed bugs at bay for around that time. After that time is up, bed bugs will return in much larger numbers. They multiply quickly. They will tell you that if the problem persists, you can call them for a free or discounted second treatment. What they don’t tell you is that, yes, you guessed it, you have to do the prep work once more. Most people give up after they spend days and energy on second prep work. This pretty much lets the exterminator off the hook. Third, bed bugs develop resistance very quickly. Imagine, even if there was an effective active ingredient that could be used in a pesticide, if a bed bug somehow survived it, its second-generation offspring would be one hundred percent resistant to that active ingredient. That could be at its longest around one hundred fifty days, or as little as fifteen days under some circumstances. You don’t have to trust my words. Verify easily everything stated here concerning bed bug biology at Kentucky University or Purdue University entomology department website.

Third. Some of the exterminators are brave or arrogant enough to take you for a fool and sign you up for a twelve-month contract when they come every month for twelve months to take care of the bed bugs and charge you five hundred dollars or something like that per month. That means you end up paying six thousand dollars and doing prep work twelve times and live with bed bugs for a year or more. That is the definition of insanity, my friends, but a clever yet very dishonest tactic by the exterminator.

 

 

 

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.

Hidden Risks Of Using Diatomaceous Earth

Welcome to our latest promotional video, where we explore the dangers of using Diatomaceous Earth (DE) to eliminate bed bug infestations.

While DE is often marketed as a natural and safe alternative to chemical pesticides, it is crucial to understand that “natural” does not always equate to “safe” or “effective.” This video is essential for anyone considering DE for bed bug control, as we delve into its significant risks and limitations, especially when used improperly by the general public. Using DE incorrectly poses serious health risks, including the potential for long-term silicosis and severe respiratory problems. Inhaling DE dust can cause significant lung damage, which far outweighs the problems posed by bed bugs. Our video emphasizes that DE should never be used without proper knowledge and safety protocols. We provide detailed information on the correct handling of DE, such as wearing protective gear and ensuring proper ventilation, to help mitigate these severe health risks. We also highlight that DE is not a reliable standalone solution for bed bug infestations. Bed bugs are resilient pests that can hide in the smallest crevices, making it difficult for DE to reach them all. Improper application can lead to prolonged exposure to bed bugs, increasing the risk of bites and allergic reactions. Our video demonstrates how DE can be part of a broader, multi-faceted approach to bed bug management, which includes IPM ( Integrated Pest Management ). Finally, we dispel common myths about DE and bed bug control. Many people believe that simply spreading DE around their home will solve their bed bug problem. In reality, this can create more issues, such as spreading the infestation and increasing exposure to DE dust. We explain the proper application techniques and emphasize that DE should be used responsibly and in conjunction with other effective treatments. In conclusion, while Diatomaceous Earth is a natural product with potential benefits in bed bug control, its improper use carries significant risks that far outweigh its benefits. Our video aims to educate viewers on the safe and effective use of DE, emphasizing that it should never be the sole method for bed bug extermination.

How To Find And Positively Identify Bed Bugs

Identifying a bed bug infestation, especially in its early stages, can be challenging due to the elusive nature of these pests. Bed bugs are small, mostly nocturnal insects that feed on blood, typically at night when their hosts are asleep. Their flattened bodies allow them to hide in cracks and crevices, making detection difficult. Unlike some pests that leave visible signs such as droppings or webs, bed bugs are adept at remaining hidden until their population grows significantly.

One of the key challenges in identifying bed bugs is their appearance. Adult bed bugs are about the size of an apple seed, reddish-brown in color, and wingless. Their bodies are oval-shaped, and they have six legs. When not engorged with blood, they are relatively flat, which enables them to squeeze into tight spaces such as seams of mattresses, cracks in furniture, and baseboards. This ability to hide in inconspicuous areas makes them hard to spot during routine inspections, especially in the early stages of an infestation.

Furthermore, bed bugs are skilled at evading detection by remaining inactive for long periods, sometimes several months, without feeding. This dormancy allows them to survive without a blood meal and makes it challenging to identify an infestation until it becomes more widespread. Their secretive behavior and small size and ability to hide in various hiding spots underscore the importance of thorough and regular inspections by trained professionals to detect and address bed bug problems effectively.

It’s worth noting that even medical professionals can contribute to the confusion surrounding bed bugs and their bites. Despite their expertise, healthcare providers may provide misleading diagnoses unless a biopsy is specifically ordered and performed correctly. In cases where bed bug bites are mistaken for other conditions, such as allergic reactions or skin disorders, multiple biopsies might be conducted, yet the diagnosis remains inaccurate. This underscores the complexity of identifying bed bug infestations solely based on bite marks and highlights the importance of comprehensive assessments that consider environmental factors and professional pest inspections alongside medical evaluations to ensure accurate diagnoses and effective treatment plans.

For that reason, all of the evidence must be considered carefully by a seasoned professional who has years of experience detecting and/or exterminating bed bugs.
