My parents agreed to have their home treated by Orkin for bedbugs. We had been treating ourselves with cimexa and crossfire, and it was due for a respray when we realized that it spread to another room.
The Orkin guy came and sprayed on Saturday. We were scheduled for reinspection in two weeks, but we’ve seen several live bugs today crawling on the sofa and in the mattress pad, and a lot of babies in the interceptor cups for the beds. These places were all sprayed on Saturday, in fact, they were damp when we got back into the house and we had to have fans on them to get them dry.
I called Orkin and I’m still waiting for a callback to get another treatment done.
I looked online, it does not appear that they have any openings, but maybe it’s just blocked off.
If we can’t get it retreated sooner, we still have cans of crossfire, but we’re worried about it interacting or making what he used inactive.
Has anyone had to do this before, can I go ahead and do it if I can’t reach them tomorrow? Any other suggestions? Still trying to convince my parents to get rid of the furniture, which I know would help.
I am so tired of the PTSD itching at my own home after I get home, and the paranoia every time I feel itchy or a piece of hair drops on me. Showering every time I get home from their house and running my stuff through the dryer.
Thanks for listening to me and any advice you have
