    Q
    Will BB Stop Bed Bug Pitfall Trap crack on carpet if like the Clumb-Ups?
    How does this work, is it just like the Climb-Ups, that the inside wells are slippery and the bed bug will just get trapped inside it? And if I put my bed posts on it and my room is carpeted is there a chance it will crack? Also, how many come in one pack or is it just one single BB Stop I'm ordering (i.e. if I wanted one for all four posts I'd have to buy 4 separate BB Stops?)
    A
    The BB Stop traps are sold individually. While these are a bit tougher than the Climb Ups you can still run into issues with the traps cracking if you use them on deep carpet without any kind of support beneath them. We recommend using a large washer (you can get these from your local home improvement store) or a piece of wood under the trap to avoid cracking. The BB traps do work like the Climb Ups.

    Q

    The BB Stop Bed Bug Pitfall Trap has an inner well that measures 4 in x 4 in and should suit your needs just fine.

    Q
    What do you put in the wells of the BB Stop Bed Bug Pitfall trap?
    A
    You do not need to put anything in the well of the trap. Once the insect crawls into outer well it will be trapped as the walls are too slick for the bedbug to crawl back out. The BB Stop is to be used to monitor an infestation, not necessarily to kill the bedbugs. To kill trapped bugs you can crush them or dump them in soapy water or spray them with insecticide (after you remove them from the pitfall trap).

    Q
    Is $9.95 the price just for 1 individual BB Stop Bed Bug Pitfall Trap?
    Since beds have 4 legs and almost $10 is an extremely high price for just 1 interceptor!
    A

    BB Stop Bed Bug Pitfall Traps are sold individually, so $9.95 is the price for one individual trap.  We do also have the Climb-Up Insect Interceptors, which are available in a pack of 4 for $15.98.

    Q
    I have queen size frame. What size would I need?
    A
    The BB Stop Bed Bug Pit Fall Trap is 4 inches by 4 inches. If the legs on your bed frame are larger than that, we would suggest using other type.  The Climb Up Insect Interceptor is 4 1/2 inches across the diameter. Either product will be excellent for bed bug detection.

    Q
    Do you sell any climb ups or traps that can be used on beds supported by the wooden bed frame?
    I have 2 twin beds that are attached to the headboard and footboard. If the traps are too small, what Is available to provide protection in this case?
    A

    The BB Stop Bed Bug Pitfall Traps would support a wooden bed frame. The center area where the furniture leg sits is 4 by 4 inches. We would recommend measuring the legs to ensure the bed will fit inside of the pitfalls since we are unable to take them back once they have been purchased.

    We do also have Trappit BB Detectors can be placed under the bed as well. They will remain effective for up to 4 weeks and an infestation is generally identified within 2-3 days.
