http://tv.bedbugcentral.com In this episode Jeff will discuss the recent news on a simple and easy to make bed bug monitor created by Rutgers University to monitor for bed bugs. The Bed Bug Dry Ice Trap is an easy to create monitor for bed bugs that utilizes dry ice as the attractant that hungry bed bugs are attracted to. It is true that bed bugs are attracted to the monitor and this monitor can be the most effective that we currently have available to us, but there are some things you should be aware of if you do try to create this monitor on your own (do-it-yourself). Please also be aware that even though this monitor was shown to outcompete the commercially available monitors (CDC 3000 and Nightwatch), those devices were also very effective in detecting low level bed bug infestations. First, this monitor is not intended to be used by pest control companies as there are hazards associated with dry ice that may create liabilities for pest control companies setting this monitor in clients homes. Pest control companies should consider using the commercially manufactured devices (CDC 3000 and Nightwatch) that were found to also be effective for detecting bed bugs Also, please remember that a zero-trap-catch does not necessarily mean that you do not have bed bugs. These monitors are intended to attract hungry bed bugs to them and therefore not all bed bugs are attracted to these types of monitors. In order to create this monitor you will need: a dog bowl (that can be used similarly to a Climbup device), dry ice, a thermos to place dry ice in, talcum powder, tape or sandpaper and possibly a towel. Please watch this episode for some pointers on how to construct this device properly.

  • He talked so many crap!! Just start doing it man!!!!

  • I just wasted 9 mins of my life while I could of being watching my little pony

  • @mbozza __ He doesn't know how to set it up. All he knows is that CO2 attracts bedbugs. If you want a real CO2 trap that works Google ___ Bedbug War Facebook__and look at the recipe video. I don't have any bedbugs, they are easy to get rid of.

  • @heres2living __ Not thorough enough. Dry Ice does not last long enough to catch all the bedbugs and can not catch the bedbugs already in the bed (about 95% of them). This trap catches only bedbugs on the floor for about 10-12 hours then stops until you put more DryIce into it.. If you want a real CO2 trap that works Google ___ Bedbug War Facebook__

  • @DrizzieDre01 __ This trap would work if he would use CO2 from fermentation instead of dry ice which does not last long enough. The trap does not catch bugs which are already in the bed, about 95% of them. This trap only shows that CO2 works. Find a real trap at Bedbug War Facebook. See you there. :))

  • 話が長い

  • Thanks hour the info ill let you know how out worked

  • Next time do your video in two minutes.

  • @bigwillystyle76

    Actually, what he has done is to be very thorough for those people who would watch and still not get it. A lot of people have to have things explained to them to the nth degree.
