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.

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.

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.
