    Bed Bugs are Blown Away

    By Katherine on 11/07/2012

    We were dealing with bites for most of the summer, but even several visits to the doctor didn't clear things up. When I discovered a bed bug crawling across my lap one night, well...I wanted to move. I was beyond skeeved out. Let me give you an idea of my situation: single mom of 3, disabled due to a serious back injury, a few other obnoxious health issues that cause severe fatigue, 4 dogs, 2 cats, and I homeschool my 12 year old daughter. We live in a townhouse that has 4 units in a building - so my townhome connects to two other homes. I spent a week or so doing intensive research...and I was overwhelmed before I even got going. I compared prices, product information, and online reviews. DoMyOwnPestControl.com shipped VERY quickly. I was grateful for the quick shipping as I didn't want to spend one extra minute with these nasty beasties crawling around. One thing that sold me on buying here, rather than some other company offering an almost identical kit, was the informational PDF they offer on the site. I loved having someone experienced in this stuff give me a little of their advice. (A national pest control company wanted $850 PER VISIT - for THREE visits - to get rid of these things. I just couldn't afford that.) They also include this helpful information in each kit they send out. Take advantage of that. Spend a few minutes reading it online, then refresh the info when it arrives. I promise it will make a big difference in making your job a lot easier! I was absolutely shocked where I found bed bugs. I was deeply disappointed when the "home remedies" I found online just didn't work. (It WILL kill them to put them in a SEALED Ziploc bag and then put the bag in the freezer for several days. All of the live bugs I find go into a Ziploc bag. It's quick and easy - plus you can look at them closely, if interested. They are kind of cool...*when stuck behind the barrier of a sealed Ziploc bag*!) Spraying an infestation (or harborage) of bugs with alcohol does NOT work. I don't care if you use 70% or 90% isopropyl alcohol or the green alcohol. Alcohol does NOT work. It stuns them for a few minutes, long enough to stick them in a sealed bag - but trust me. They come back to life. Quickly. I feel this kit covers all your bases. After THOROUGHLY vacuuming each part of the bed (box springs and mattress), I sprayed all the surfaces of each bed. (I also steamed the beds with a steamer I bought for this purpose.) When it was all dry, into encasements went the matresses and box springs. I then thoroughly vacuumed the carpet all around the bed, including using the crevice attachment to really clean around the baseboards. I sprayed, sprinkled, and squeezed the various sprays and powders, as instructed. I purchased the Chapin 1 Gallon Pump Sprayer separately and used that to apply the FenvaStar EcoCap. I was conscientious about applying stuff everywhere - I took drawers out of dressers and thoroughly treated everything. I used a cheap 1" paintbrush to help spread the CimeXa Insecticide Dust - which helped get the dust in all the cracks and crevices. The bellows was helpful to get the CimeXa into light switches and wall sockets. (Be VERY careful when using this bellows to administer insecticide in light switches, etc - just sticking something metal into a junction box full of metal wires and parts is NOT smart.) My townhouse is about 1800 sq ft at this kit seems like it will be enough to treat the house 3 times, as instructed. It's a huge pain in the neck. HUGE. To cut down on the amount of work, I did throw some things away - books and other things that were impossible to clean. I also got rid of a lot of stuffed animals my kids had. Yes, they can go in the dryer to get rid of the nasty beasts - but I was already tasked with rewashing ALL our clothes anyway...I wasn't interested in treating old toys and things the kids didn't care about anyway. And as much as I love my books, I love living in a bed bug free space more! Bottom line: I would DEFINITELY purchase this kit again. I think this size kit is good to treat approx 1800 sq ft 3 times. None of the products give off a terrible smell. The combination of items stop the bed bugs in their tracks. I still recommend placing any live bugs you find in a SEALED Ziploc bag - you don't want them crawling out of the trash and attacking you again...or worse, having eggs! Make sure you empty you vacuum bag or cup as soon as you're done vacuuming - I placed the contents into a small trash bag which I then sealed with tape. These guys are tricky and crafty - they will survive almost anything. This complete kit however, will give you the upper hand. Since bed bugs don't eat anything but blood (preferably human), regular pesticides will not kill them. They won't eat it. It must be something they come into contact with (or walk through) so it can dehydrate them and cause their demise. Just keep at it - you CAN win. Oh - and if you have questions, call DoMyOwnPestControl.com - they are extremely helpful and nice. If you have to deal with bed bugs, this is the place and kit to do it with. I'm very satisfied. PS: I added all the additional information because I wish someone had shared it with me while I was trying to research this issue. I apologize if that makes the review hard to read. In case it wasn't clear, I give DoMyOwnPestControl.com an A, as well as their Bed Bug Kit #2.

    Great Peace of Mind

    By Brad on 10/02/2010

    Verified Purchase

    This set of products is the same stuff that professionals use!!! I had a pest control company charge me $450 to treat my upstairs for Bed Bugs. They did a great job and I've had no further problems. After they left I searched the chemicals they used and discovered DoMyOwnPestControl.com and the Bed Bug Kit#2. I looked at the description on my receipt from the Pest Control Company and they used the exact same stuff in Bed Bug Kit to treat my upstairs. I felt so relieved to have found this bundled product and purchased it in case I have another infestation. It feels great to have the ability to kill BedBugs if they come back. I also purchased Mattress and Box Spring Covers, Phantom Aerosol Spray and Diatomaceous Earth. The pest Control Company also used the Phantom Spray. I slept on a couch downstairs after I threw out my bed. I thought I saw a bed bug on it and it was nice to have the products to treat it. Now I am fully armed if another infestation happens. My order was quickly processed and I received it in three days. I could not be happier with DoMyOwnPestControl.com. They were a beacon of light during a dark time of despair. If you are suffering a BedBug infestation you are not helpless, buy the products and get your life back.

    I have started using this product and so far, it is wonderful. It beats paying $1000 to a pest control and they do the same thing we did( but we did it better) taking our time....Thanks so much for sending this. I'm glad that we chose to do it ourselves first!

    Worked great!!!!

    By Anonymous on 08/16/2013

    Some way some how my entire family got bedbugs...Purchased this kit after calling and getting a 750 dollar estimate from pest control company.... I sprayed my three story house my brothers two story house and my sisters three story house..... A year later still bedbug free... When my daughter called and said her dorm had bedbugs and although maintenance sprayed the rooms they still had them I had enough left to spray 24 rooms 6 bathrooms a lounge area and office needless to say those girls went the rest of the school year bedbug free.... This product really works and way cheaper than 750 dollars.....

    We got bed bugs in our camper.  They were transferred to our camper in luggage after a trip to San Fransisco.  These bugs survived through the below freezing winter!  I wasn't sure if we could get an exterminator to treat a camper, so I ordered this kit.  It arrived in 3 days.  We used the camper 1 week after we treated it and we haven't seen any bugs since. This is a wonderful set of products.

    Better than an exterminator

    By Maryanne on 12/22/2013

    We hired an exterminator for bed bugs. He came 4 times and we were still seeing bugs after he came. We ordered this kit, sprayed our rooms and after 2 weeks, still no sign of a bug. I'm finally free of the bugs my neighbors left behind... Yay!

    Good Products

    By Mm on 11/17/2011

    Verified Purchase

    I'm still using the products, I've been 5 weeks without a bite. The selection seems very good, the chemical composition is varied and hopefully will get rid of the pests. From my research, the products cover the spectrum of pesticides that should eradicate bedbugs. It is important to continue using them even after no further evidence of infestation is evident.

    Great products when used properly; it's been 2 weeks and we are bug free We weren't sure we had bed bugs. Had a termite inspector in who said he saw no evidence other than that we were being bitten. It only took one treatment for these bugs to surface and we zapped and powdered them dead!! Great feeling to be free of them.

    Sanity saver

    By Lacey on 11/01/2016

    When I moved house and an aqquaintance gifted me a California King mattress to accompany the new bed frame I planned to purchase, I thought I had lucked out. And then one morning I woke up looking as if I had been attacked by a swarm of mosquitos. I had bites all over my face and arms. In fact, at first I blamed mosquitos, as we had held an outside get together the day before. But the bites kept coming and no one else seemed to get them. We chalked it up to me being highly sensitive until....I saw one. A Google search confirmed for me that my nasty little guest was a bedbug. Having just moved in, I was ashamed to run to my landlord. I brought the damn things. So, I ran out and bought a mattress encasement and some spray from Walmart and washed all my clothes and linens. I didn't get bit for a day. Nothing worked, so when I saw this on Google, I figured I'd try it before tucking my tail and calling my landlord. You get everything you need besides gloves, a respirator and an area sprayer. Buy the respirator if you don't want to die. Anyway, I took everything apart and washed and bagged all my linens and clothes again. The application was a process. I'm not going to say it wasn't hard work because it was. But after the first application, I was bite free for about a week. I woke up that morning and saw two fed nymphs on my bed who were near death. I did a sexton application that day and it's now been nearly three weeks without a single bite. I plan to do another application at the third week mark, but I am hopeful that those buggers are gone for good. After months, I am finally sleeping through the night and no longer being terrorized in my own home. I'd buy this kit a million times over. Thanks for saving my sanity, DMOPC.

    Bed bug kit 2

    By Monica on 04/11/2013

    Verified Purchase

    Im working on my 3rd treatment, as its been about 6 weeks. I will say that I am treating two areas simultaneously, my boyfriends apartment and my room at my families. The good news is that there seems to be plenty to go around, and for multiple continuous treatments for my place and his. Downside is that it doesn't seem to be working; I cannot get any relief from these pests. My skin reacts horribly to the bites and there is swelling involved. At one point there were bites above one of my eyes and it had swollen ( think hunch back of Notre Dome). Or heres something I haven't read in any reviews ( and I've read a lot of them) the breakfast, lunch and dinner bites appearing on my tongue, yeah I sleep with my mouth open. I am definitely at my wits end. And Im losing so much sleep over this and I don't even have an infestation. I've been at my place for 16 years, and this year is the first time I've ever had a problem like this. My next move is to purchase the mattress and box spring covers and apply treatment to both vehicles. I will update later but as of right now I am NOT happy.

    Good stuff. Works exactly like the advertisement says. We liked the Bedlam insecticide (if you can find them), and Pyganic dust for residual effect.  For our situation they worked the best.

    BedBug kit #2

    By Wayne on 05/29/2017

    Worked well, easy instructions, easy to use. Bed bugs are very, very hard to eradicate takes numerous applications and caution not to spread to other rooms or areas in home. Takes patience and very detailed application of chemicals, plus several weeks of applications to get rid of bed bugs. Must be the most difficult insect to eradicate, at least these were.

    Great Products

    By Kathy on 03/09/2017

    Don't get intimidated over these little vampires. These products work. The best way to get them under control is contain the bugs in their homes. Which is your mattress and box spring! A zippered cover keeps them contained. Give it two days them apply the powder in between the mattress/box spring. Unless they are severe, in your walls, furniture. It will take time, believe me you can win this war! It takes time, don't leave your bedroom these critters will follow you. Constantly stay in your bedroom, and trap them there.
