Bed Bug Patrol Natural, Non-Toxic, Family and Pet Safe Bed Bug Killer- 24oz

Good

It doesn’t work at all. I tried spraying it directly on the bed bugs, and they crawled away. Total waste of money

هذا المنتج انخدعت به انه منتج سي وردئ ولايقتل بق الفراش وبسعر مبالغ فيه لقد قمت بشرائه ولم استفيد منه وخسارة الفلوس اللي دفعتها

The last week of January, I discovered a tiny bug crawling toward me as I sat on my couch (which, btw, was purchased brand new 10 years ago and whereupon, I must admit, I have been sleeping since prior to the Nov election). Instinctively, I killed it right away and didn't give it another thought. A couple of days later & then over the next week I saw several more, this time catching them & identifying them through a magnifying glass, as BED BUGS, to my shock and horror!!! A good friend who suspected she had bed bugs a year ago was charged thousands of dollars by a dog-sniffing abatement firm, while turning her apartment inside out and throwing away most of her belongings. I wasn't about to go through all that. I did not want any toxic chemicals in my environment because I'm still kind of holed up due to Covid-19 social distancing, so with my DIY mindset, I decided I was going to attempt to get rid of them myself. I did some online research and ordered a bottle of "Bed Bug Patrol". Meanwhile I vacuumed every inch & crevice of my couch, the floor, the baseboards, mopped; basically Spring cleaned. I then sprayed the bottom of my couch with the bug killer, as well as the floor where it meets the walls, around electrical sockets, etc., as directed. I stopped seeing bugs IMMEDIATELY after the first application. I decided to continue to sleep on the couch for fear that the bugs might follow me to the bedroom, where fortunately none were detected. Nevertheless, I treated the whole bedroom, to be sure. (I suspected that the bugs got into my space either 1) through the wall behind my couch which I share with a new neighbor that that recently moved in, 2) picked up from having sat on a bench at the DMV or 3) from the back seat of a taxicab that week. Initially the scent (Clove & Spearmint) was overpowering, so I slept with an N95 mask, concerned that it was going to irritate my sinuses or throat. No irritation and by the next day I had gotten used to it and now really like the scent, as I associate it with a feeling of security. I reapplied 3 more times, a week apart each & plan to continue to reapply beyond the recommended time frame, and then periodically from now on, as a prophylactic measure. This product really worked for me and I highly recommend it!

This Bed Bug Killer by Bed Bug Patrol spray does not work!!! I am not a scientist or Entomologist but I have done an enormous amount of research on the best way to kill bed bugs using something other than toxic chemicals. After reading an article from Dec 2017 in the Journal of Entomology (the journal of insects, basically) I realized that this spray will not work at all to kill or to deter bed bugs. Don't be fooled by any"Natural" bed bug spray claims!!!! Do your research!!! In the Dec 2017 article, the scientists concluded that only three items worked to kill bed bugs. The only essential oil that made their list was 'blood orange' and as it were, the results were minimal at bed bug control. The other two were dusts: 'Diatomaceous Earth' and 'Silicon Dioxide as Amorphous Silica.' The Diatomaceous Earth worked okay but was not as successful as the Silicon Dioxide. The Silicon Dioxide (also known as silica dust or brand name CimeXa) came out as the best "natural" insecticide. The silica dust latches onto the bedbug and dehydrates it to death. Usually within 24 hours. Watch how to apply the dust on youtube through a pest control video or the manufacturer of CimeXa's video. Am returning this bottle back to Amazon. I do not represent CimeXa and am not paid by them for this review.
