Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

About six weeks ago I found bed bugs in my 2 bedroom apartment. Bought a 16oz bottle to start, as well as 16 oz of another brand. The cedar/eucalyptus smell of this brand is so pleasant... the other brand was a little weird. So I stayed with this brand when I ordered 1 more gallon, and then 3 gallons (I was getting desperate). I consider our case to be mild. Only one bedroom (3 occupants) had multiple bugs, the other bedroom (1 occupant) had maybe two bugs and no bites noticed. Every few days, sometimes once a week, I spray down the bedroom. I've also sprayed other rooms where I have seen bugs crawling the walls. I did my own experiment with adult bugs in a glass jar. First bug died immediately with direct contact with this spray, then I left spray to dry and 20 hours later added a second bug, and within 25 minutes of crawling around the dried/residual spray, it was dead! I definitely felt justified buying over 4 gallons of this stuff. Now I probably have too much of it leftover but when you compare the toxic chemical companies' prices, each application being at least $200, I can assume I spent about the same but with a safer spray. My toddler and preschooler are too precious to subject to chemicals!! I don't feel guilty spraying the dickens out of my apartment. NB I also applied diatomaceous earth around the edges of the carpets, but honestly I prefer this spray because it's less messy and doesn't get all over your vacuum, etc. I recommend this product and that you plan for multiple applications so you can reach them at different life stages and places. I know the residue is supposed to keep working but personally I feel better reapplying.
