does orathene kill bed bugs
1135339
It doesn't specifically mention bedbugs, but the MSDS *does* specifically say this product is NOT for indoor residential use. I'm sure you could haul the mattress outside and treat it there, but it's still going to stink to high heaven for days to come. I don't have any first hand experience with bedbugs, but I have two kids and we had to do the lice thing once. We went into full decontamination mode in the house. I suspect bedbugs are no different and may be even more persistent. Simply spraying the mattress will probably *not* be enough and you will need to vacum, wash, spray, bag and lots of other things to permanently rid yourself of them.

Im sure it wood, but orathene smells like rotten eggs. I woulden't want to spill orathene on my clothing and especially on my bed.

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.

They work well in succession with professional help. I'm a teacher so I used these to kill anything in my books. If you take a large bin, and place anything you can in it, then place the strips and leave for 7 days it will kill all signs of bed bugs. They will not work for a whole house. They are also very dangerous and should only be used as directed.

The manaul clearly states that this unit is not to be used indoors, If you have problems with bed bugs you can try an insecticide where the active ingredient is "bifenthrin" this can be applied with a manual sprayer, it is very important to clean the bed after and vacuum the afected areas .

Hi, this should work with any powder type substance. I used it with diatomaceous earth. (bed bugs) You may want to try diatomaceous earth (Food Grade Only!) it is non-toxic, and natural. Hope this helps.

On the back of the label it says it kills bedbugs and gets rid of an infestation. With regular use it can prevent bedbugs and infestations to begin with so I'm not a 100 % sure. But I will say when I use on a regular bases I can see that it does of really good job of killing the bedbugs period including the larvae not sure about the eggs though. There were too spots in particular the bugs like to use as a hangout nest so to speak and the spray definitely cut down on it barely a issue now. I think as long as you use on a regular bases it will take care of the eggs and the larvae because it's suppose to kill on contact and prevent infestation. I know this is a little lengthy but I hope this helps answer your question this is a really good product and would tell anybody to get this and use it will save you a lot of sleepless night,anti-itch spray for bug bites and being in a bad mood because you got huge bumps on your body from the bites in first that you can't to do much about and have to go down on their own.

You can't control and eliminate them with just this. You need an exterminator. And after the 2nd time they were here, I have had none.I used this product all around my bed and bed frame, every night. And I even sprayed it in my bed a couple of hours before I went to bed. It has a great minty smell. I also purchased the bed bug powder and put Glad containers under every leg and powder in it. And a mattress bed bug or allergen encasement. Good luck

This will work for ANY kind of insect! Any bug that crawls thru it will begin to die. It's not instant like a poison but boy does it work! I keep a little of it in the back of my closets all the time. i put it out months ago and I didnt use much. I still find dead spiders and crickets in my closet every now and then.

I bought this to kill bed bugs and cockroaches as an alternative to chemicals sprayed throughout my house. I don't know about outside use.

No, but there is a better solution. "Diatomaceous Earth" Sprinkle this stuff around your bed, and they'll be gone in a few days. Works like a charm.*Top Rated* Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth 5 Lbs

After talking to the Orkin pest control man I would like to be very honest and tell you that he informed me that if you buy the 20 mule team laundry detergent and use it in cracks crevices and around your beds that it actually works better than the DE. The detergent contains BORAX which is a lot deadlier and faster to kill than the DE. Also if you have seen one bed bug then there are many more hiding!!!! You really need to get a pest control to do an inspection. These bed bugs are almost impossible to kill. I know I have been battling them for 2 years now and whenever I think I have the problem licked they come back!!!!!! Heat kills them!! I hope this helps

Yes it will kill the worms as well, for ant hills buy "amdro", the workers will take the bait and feed it to the queen and it will kill the queen, once the queen is dead, within two days all ants will die too, Bifen XTS 25.1% is very powerful

It lists bed bugs as one of the bugs that it will kill, we have used this product for years and it essentially kills any crawling, flying insect, including fleas. We use this in our house, it is safe once it has dried!

I have used this spray for years. I moved in to a new apartment , and little did I know it had bed bugs. The reasn why I didn't know for three months is because every new place I move I use this spray. Sadly it works on the adults and nit the poppy seed like children. HAHAH The complex had to spray my apartment more and do a full heat treatment but I had no other bugs the whole time. Bed bugs are every place humans are so the spray is not on places you lay and you can't spray it on yourself, but it does cut down on the adults so you can get control of the problem.

As far as I know, Borax works on roaches but not bed bugs or fleas. From personal experience I know that diatomaceous earth works well on both bed bugs and fleas but more so bed bugs. Since fleas jump they tend to hang out off the floor and it is hard to kill all of the fleas with diatomaceous earth.

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.
