I am taking time to write this to enlighten folks who are or have never experienced a bed bug infestation. There is no way that I can make this a real short story but I think you might be interested in something that you think could never happen to you.

I always lived in a very clean home in suburbia always in an upscale neighborhood.

I had put some things in storage and after a year I decided it was ridiculous to keep spending $100.00 a month on stuff that I would probably never use again. So, I brought the stuff into my home with the idea of giving most of the things to charity. I left the stuff sit for about a week and began getting rid of most of these belongings.

Well, a few weeks later I noticed two very unfamiliar bugs on my ankle at about 8 am.

After confirming that these were bed bugs, I just flipped out. The first mistake I made was to call an extermination company who touted bed bug control not extermination, but at the time I didnt care. I wanted these things out of my home. I unfortunately signed some papers and after all was said and done I was out $4000.00 and I still had bed bugs.

Naturally I called and cursed them out and it seemed whatever I said fell on deaf ears. Next, I went to Home Depot and bought every product that even intoned that their product killed bed bugs. I sprayed my entire home. By now Im getting educated that there is more to this process than just using pesticides or bombs.

It is extremely important that you vaccum your entire home on a daily basis and do lots of laundry on the hottest cycles available to you.

I did not begin to see any real positive results until after I went online and discovered SayByeBugs. I made my first order of two 24 oz. bottles of non toxic bed bug spray, which appealed to me in itself. I began spraying behind every picture and yes I saw a few behind a few pictures.

Underneath antiques and actually all my furniture. Just think that just a few of them can turn into hundreds in a very short time so I cannot emphasize enough that you have to be diligent. I live in South Florida where we have all types of creepy things but I grew up with them and none ever bothered me like these resilient bed bugs.

There are luxury hotels, cruise ships, and yes storage units and on and on where infestations have occurred. Its usually a hush hush matter with respect to a business as you can well imagine why. Nobody is immune from the possibility of this happening to them.

Gradually with the spray and laundry products they have developed I began to see positive results. It actually took me about a month to finally get a decent nights sleep. These bugs are nocturnal so their sleeping lives are the antithesis of ours.

No human can sustain sleep deprivation for a prolonged period of time but thats what happens because they are constantly on your mind after midnight until the sun rises.

The ones I had must have been from hell because there wasnt a hour of the day I couldnt find one at the onset. Truth be told the CIA uses sleep deprivation as a form of torture. And when it becomes self inflicted you must act.

If it were not for Say Bye Bugs I just dont know what I would have done other than trying to sell my home and move into a brand new one, which just wasnt a realistic remedy.

So, if you have or even travel be exposed get Say Bye Bugs and spray everything. Im talking about baggage and other types of luggage you have used after a trip. Spray your luggage outside before bringing it into your home. I know you probably think that I am a bed bug paranoia freak.

Well, truth be told after what I experienced I am and you would be as well. Do yourself a favor, even if you think it cannot happen to you have a couple spray bottles at the ready.

I cannot thank SayByeBugs enough that they had an inexpensive way do deal with this problem. I am not being compensated for this to long of a letter but I just would hate to see anyone have to go through what I did. At any rate, I hope I was able to shed some light on a growing problem that none of us are exempt from.

Everyone should have at least a bottle of Say Bye Bugs which hopefully you will never have to use.

Do yourself a simple favor and pick up the phone and call SayByeBugs (855 290-8300) or simply email them at [emailprotected], they are very accommodating as they know what you are going through. I just cannot say enough about a product that returned my life to normalcy and Im very thankful for that.

I wish you all the best of luck in life and prosper and most importantly be happy. Thank you for taking the time to read my unfortunate encounter with the damn bed bugs.Robert S.

In this guide, Ill give you tips on how to make homemade bed bug spray.

Bed bugs are one of those pest insects that will ensure that you do not have a good nights sleep. They are fast crawling insects that suck on the blood of humans as well as mammal pets.

There are many ways to rid your home of them. You could go to a pest control store and buy an insecticide spray, or you can just make one at home.

Keep reading!

To make an effective homemade bed bug spray, you need to first understand the bugs, their habits, and their weaknesses.

Bed bugs thrive on the blood of humans and mammal pets. Without an adequate intake of blood, they will be dead. They prefer human blood, but if youve got cats or dogs around, they can suck their blood too.

Bed bugs arent ticks, so do not get them confused with each other. Ticks will latch on to a host, while a bed bug bites and moves on.

Bed Bug bites arent necessarily painful, but they can cause several forms of irritation on the skin. These include redness, blisters, and can cause the victim to itch.

They are most active at night and can be found hiding under pillows, mattresses, cushioned seats, and around your pets sleeping areas.

These annoying pests can make their way into your home without you even knowing it. They can hang on to your clothes, bags, or on your pets as you walk into the house. As you move from one area to the house, the more you spread them around.

You can be sure you have bed bugs in your home if you notice small patterns of blood on your mattress or pillows. Also, they leave blackish smear marks on the walls, mattresses, or on the floor.

When you notice any of these, then you know youve got some unwanted bugs to deal with.

These bugs are allergic to several natural scents and food. These include cinnamon, fresh mint, garlic, strong alcohol, lavender, and a host of others.

Lets show you how to use the above-mentioned substances and make a spray that can kill or repel bed bugs.

There are many combinations you can try using natural foods and substances. Below are some recipes you can try.

Its hard to imagine that any living being on Earth would hate the smell of fresh mint. Humans love it, but bed bugs dont. Good news for us, bad news for them.

The scent of fresh mint not only irritates the bugs but also affects their central nervous system.

To make a simple fresh mint spray, you will need a decent amount of mint (depending on the level of infestation), some water, and a spray bottle.

You some water into a pot and add the fresh mint into it. Boil the water (with the mint inside) until it starts to steam.

Upon doing this, you will find that the mint is completely dissolved in the booking water and your entire kitchen and other parts of your home will start smelling like mint.

The minty smell from the vapor alone will start to irritate the bugs, but thats not where it stops! Allow the water to cool off then pour it into a spray bottle.

Take the bottle with you as you visit the areas where the bed bugs are very active and spray directly on them, and around the areas where they crawl through.

Spray under your bed and by the sides. Also, spray around the couch and sofas, dont forget to spray around your pets sleeping area too.

The mint scent is something the bugs cannot bear, they will leave any area where they can perceive it and will die if they remain exposed to it, as it severely attacks their nervous system.

The mint spray for killing and repelling bed bugs is one of the easiest you can make at home. The mint smell is also known to help relieve stress in humans, so youll be getting rid of bed bugs and relieving yourself of stress at the same time.

Cinnamon powder is another ingredient you can use to make a homemade bed bug spray.

Similar to fresh mint, bed bugs also hate the smell of cinnamon. Using this knowledge, you can whip up a super cinnamon spray to keep the bugs away!

Heres what to do.

Go to a store near you and buy some cinnamon powder, thats if you dont have any in your kitchen already. Its not too expensive either, so you can buy as much as you will need.

Just as you can do with fresh mint, you only need some water and a spray bottle to attack the bugs.

The powder is a substance that dissolves easily, so you will have no problem blending it nicely into water.

Pour an adequate amount of powder into a container of water and stir continuously until the powder is well blended in. Pour the mixture into a spray bottle and shake the bottle thoroughly to achieve a better mix.

Head on to the areas where the bugs hang out and spray the cinnamon powder solution all over.

The water will eventually evaporate, but the cinnamon powder will be left lodged in the areas where you have sprayed.

You can apply the powder directly to the infested areas, but using it in form of a spray will help it reach very tight areas where the bed bugs are hidden, thanks to the water mist that carries it along.

You could hardly find any insect that can stand the scent of garlic or the burning effects of cayenne pepper. On their own, they can kill or repel bed bugs, but together, they work faster and more effectively.

All you will need is to grind some cloves of garlic and get some cayenne pepper powder. The quantity you will use depends on the number of bed bugs you are fighting. 3 to 4 cloves of garlic and 3 tablespoons of cayenne pepper will do.

Pour some water into a pot and add the ground garlic and cayenne pepper powder to it.

Light up your burner and let the water boil with the garlic and pepper all together. Keep stirring as the solution boils to achieve the best blend.

As it boils, the smell of the garlic will start to manifest around your kitchen and other parts of your home and this will begin to irritate and weaken the bugs.

Let it boil for about 15 minutes then turn off the burner. Allow the solution to cool off just a little bit, the solution should get cold before you apply, as the heat will also help to kill the bugs.

Using a pair of kitchen mitts, pour the garlic/cayenne pepper solution into a plastic spray bottle. Visit the affected areas and spray the solution as required. The heat combined with the sulfur from the garlic and the burning seen of the cayenne pepper will drive the bed bugs away.

The smell of alcohol is one that bed bugs cannot stand. To make matters worse for them, you can combine it with one or two cloves of ground garlic.

All you have to do is pour some alcohol into a container and add some ground garlic to it. Stir it properly so the ground garlic is well spread.

When youre sure its all blended in, pour it into a spray bottle and apply it in the infested areas.

You could also combine alcohol with cinnamon powder if you wish. Prepare the same way and spray it in affected areas.

Unlike some of the materials mentioned above, bed bugs do not hate vinegar because of its smell, rather it is for deadlier reasons.

This acetic acid does a great job of disrupting the nervous system of the bed bugs and killing them eventually.

You can make a homemade spray using just vinegar, or you can combine it with lavender.

To make a vinegar Spray, all you will need to do is go to a shop and buy some white vinegar and a spray bottle. Thats if you dont already have one.

Pour the vinegar into the spray bottle and add some lavender to it. Shake it thoroughly and spray into cracks and crevices, as well as every other hiding place the bed bugs may have lodged.
