Yes, I used it to kill bed bugs. You probably won't eliminate the bedbugs just steaming one time, but if you are diligent in your efforts this steamer is extremely helpful. It will kill the bugs and eggs it comes in contact with, but you may not know where they all are.

It's a great unit for a bedroom, probably would work fine for 250 sq. ft. I bought it for my daughter who has asthma and it made an amazing difference for her. You can put it on automatic and it only works when it needs to. I think it's a great little unit. Only for dust it work very well, but if you need it to, it does so much more.

I think so. It works miracles on even bed bug infestations, and gets rid of roaches totally. Fleas jump so it may be a little harder to control, I would sprinkle it liberally on your carpets, rub it in and vacuum up the excess. Also rub it on box springs and mattresses under the sheets.

To get the specs on any particular steamer go to the manufacturers web site and I am sure the specs will be available if not already provided by the people selling it. I have a hamilton beach and it is hot enough to burn my hand so yeah I doubt if bed bugs would stand a chance. Good luck!

It worked really well for fleas and roaches so I'm betting it would work on bed bugs. It will probably take a couple weeks though because unlike fleas and roaches bed bugs can go weeks being idle. Let me know if it works, I would be interested in the results.

I don't know. I have used it on cats for fleas. I have even used it on young kittens. I spray a dry washcloth and wrap the young kitten in it for 30 seconds. It ells good too. I think that it would work for bedbugs.

Bed bugs have built up a huge resistance of most any chemical controls. It's good to use a dust product in void areas and cracks and crevices should be treated as well. We use a residual pyrethroid like Phantom combined with an igr like Nyguard. But your main source for treatment should be extreme heat or cold. We use an industrial steam cleaner. It vaporizes bed bugs in their place.

I'm not sure that this will be effective on killing bed bugs. It is designed to kill airborne mold and mildew spores and the like with its UV lamp and ozone generation capability.

Sorry - I had to send mine back because it didn't work. I had one previously, and you would not want to use it on a stinkbug. The machine burns and electrocutes the bug, but the smell would be horrible!

I don't understand the question but I do know that it worked perfectly! My father had bed bugs and so did my husband's uncle. We did not dilute thestrength and we used it for two good size bedrooms. We used a lot more at my husband's uncle's house due to the heavy infestation.

so far, it has done a great job, spiders, roly poly's or whatever you call them, all kinds of beetles----would recommend it. I work at a nursing home and use it, the regular pest control doesn't kill the bugs near as good as HOT SHOT

This is not meant to kill bugs let alone bed bugs. What this product does is sterilize the insect so it can not reproduce.

I don't really know how effective it is? or how much it would cover? We have it in our living room and find all kinds of flying insect in there except flies. The fan is not strong enough to pull in certain insect and the room have to be completely dark for the bugs to get drawn to it. We often get power outage and once the power is out, the trapped insect can escape. It's not as effective as the outdoor model which is alot brighter and it kill the insect right away instead of waiting for it to dehydrate and die.

It's great for Fleas, But I really don't know about Bed bugs! Sorry! Please don't let your dog lick it off. arf arf:)

Mites in bed? Sure. HEPA? No. And within a year or so--and that's assuming you're lucky--the thing will start to fail on you, and you'll get about 5-10 seconds of vacuuming before it shuts off. You'll need to keep pushing/releasing the trigger to do anything longer. My recommendation would be to buy something else. Don't make the mistake I made.

Try Hot Shot. I was staying with a friend and they had them. I spent money on this product. It did not help at all. I still got bit. Also watched the bugs crawl as if nothing was there. As the $30 no chemical solution was a waste to. They actually became immune to it. Bst bet from my friend who owned a store is to but Hot shot bombs for bed bugs. I know hey sell them at Walmart. Also I worked in a hotel and besides using expensive heat treatment us houseman had to steam mattresses with an iron which is very effective.

My advice: don't even bother with this product. save your money. it only blows very warm (NOT hot) steam and hardly removes stains or sanitizes surfaces so I think much less would it do you any justice for the bed bugs. hope you find what you are looking for :)
