I live in a shotgun style home with 14' ceilings. If I seal the rooms, can this product get rid of bed bugs and roaches?

Yes, they are supposed to be for small enclosed places but you can put a few in a room, close the room off for five days. they work. Their is a pest control spray made by Bayer the aspirin company Ace Hardware carries it, comes in blue bottle effective on bedbugs as well spray base boards and any crevices that they can hide in after you use Pro strips.

This stuff will kill all roaches common roaches and poison the colony up the chain as well as roaches eat roaches. I spread 1 tube throughout every corner of my basement and along Roach pathways on my 1st floor as well behind fridge, near pantry, etc. Just make sure you don't put it somewhere where you'll accidentally clean it off as it's meant to last a while.

"Can" you? I don't know. "Should" you? No. If you have that many bugs inside your home you should call a professional exterminator.

The directions on the package say not to hang the strip in a room that you occupy for 4 hours or more at a time. I put one in the living room near the door to the bedroom and it keeps the bugs away throughout the house. I also hang one on the back porch, but it isn't as effective and won't last as long as in an enclosed area. I hung it there because some of the reviewers said it helps to repel bugs. I really don't know how effective it is, but I'll try anything to keep the little blood-suckers at bay!

Sorry I don't have cockroaches in my area. It's mostly Stink Bugs and it was very effective and killed them all. I would get around 30 stink bugs each day entering my apartment and now it's none!!! I love this product in regards to stink bugs.

I have to agree with the previous posts, although our problem is also bedbugs and I can't vouch for de's effectiveness on roaches. I imagine a powder might be too thick, but I kind of doubt it. Remember to use a protective mask when using diatomaceous earth.

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.

This works only for spot treatment! These bugs can hide everywhere. Fought them for 2 years in an older wooden apartment building. Matresses are unsalvageable if infected, they will even bore into the wooden bed frames. Used the spray, bought a steamer, powder. Nothing worked 100%. Good luck. Finally rid of them, but I had to move, to finally get rid of them. They love books, videotapes, anything electronic, even power cords. They will infest draperies, and pets are vulnerable to being attacked.Best of luck,Scott..... Survivor

I'm not really sure. I wouldnt think so because its for inside use for roaches and other isects. But then again it may, because during the winter I usually get lady bugs in certain parts of my house on the ceiling but since I have installed the bell & howell I didnt see any. So it may just work for mosquitoes.

YES! This product kills cockroaches, ants, stick bugs, bees, etc. I love it. My friends all use it on their houses. I can't say enough good about it. This is a good investment, and it lasts a long time.

I'm not 100% sure but I think so. We live in a wooded area and used to have an Exterminator service come in several times a year. Once we could no longer afford this service it was one of the technicians from the Ext. service that recommended this product. Our family room sits below ground level and we suffer from spiders, centapedes, and everthing in between. We spray several times throughout the early spring and into fall. For the price and how concentrated it is it's certainly better then spending $150 everytime the exterminating service would come through. It seems to work on just about any type of bug.

Heat and alcohol kill bed bugs, so this should work. Good quality mattress encasements are essential and then a product called Sterifab http://www.sterifab.com/q%26a.html sprayed on all cracks and crevices. The heat in this device should work as well.

I don't know about the roaches, because our main insect problem was with ants, earwigs and spiders. I do know when you put it down it needs to have time to dry in order for it to have a lasting effect. We usually put it around the outside of the house and then also the inside of the house. The only time we end up with bugs is when we delay in putting it down. Been using it for 4 years now and I'm hesitant to try anything else. This works well so I'm sticking with it.

Yes it kills bed bugs I used it you need to cover the whole floor under your bed do line around your walls and take you outlet covers off and put some in there you should also get some form of chemical spray and spray the walls and and cracks worked for me haven't had them sence and a lot cheaper then a exterminator

It will kill bed bugs as it says on the internet. I have the web-site where you can read what to do: http://www.earthworkshealth.com/get-rid-of-bed-bugs.php. That will help you more than I can because I have never had bed bugs.

it should help to disinfect the walls and ceiling. You should test a small area to make sure that it's going to work alright with your paint. I have used it on both painted walls and wallpapered walls and never had a problem. You could try calling the company and getting their opinion on if it's going to work for you And your particular situation.

It works on Bedbugs which are very hard to get rid off, I would say one of the hardest. Once I sprayed it in a corners of the room and bed and mattress all kinds of bugs showed up dead. I would give it a try.
