If your population of bed bugs builds to the point that you can detect them with a human nose, then you are correct. The K9 is best used to detect infestations at the early stage before they are obvious or you start receiving bites.

@malcolmvanatta: Just curious, did you finally get rid of you bedbugs, and if you did what did you use and how much did it cost? Cheers!

Right on! I read about this technique on the internet. I did not believe it would work. When I tried it, the next morning I found about 10 dead BB's in the cans I had put under my bed legs ( I put oil into the cans). Cheers!

You have to have a buffer area between your bed and the walls, furniture, drapes, etc. Cheers!

Yes, just like I would make fun of someone who installs a hand crank starter on a modern automobile. There are many reputable pest control websites, you might want to visit one. cheers!

I think that alcohol evaporates, does not have much of a residual effect. When you spray, you must have the goal of eliminating the complete life cycle. That means you have to keep spraying for an extended period to get the eggs that have hatched. It is a process to get rid of bedbugs, not a quick fix type thing, lots of work involved. The most important thing to do FIRST is secure the sleeping area, so you can sleep without getting bit, people get soo stressed with having bedbugs, cannot sleep.

So, did I read this right... you are making fun of something that worked?

[mikeylorene]

And when the eggs hatch out where u didn't spray (after all that time and money) they will come back. Alcohol will do the same thing- kill the eggs and bugs for a lot less money- but you never know where all those eggs are, so must wash and freeze and bake everything in your house. Or, spend hundreds of dollars for a professional- and even then they can come back if one little egg is missed.

[mikeylorene]

Did that, but bedbugs jump from the walls, furniture and drapes to where ever they want.

So how did you get rid of YOUR bedbugs without spending hundreds of dollars?
