Works as indicator

By Js in Suffern, NY on 08/11/2010

Instructions should say: remove each one from the BOTTOM of the stack, it's much easier. These were for my parents' apartment in NYC, which had already been treated. We put them under chair and sofa l…

By Brian in Hernando, MS on 10/31/2012

...and I can't really even prove they work. I went with the nuclear option and sprayed everything and tossed box springs, so I haven't trapped any bugs. Still, it seems reasonable they would work. Our…

Climb-Ups
5 of 5 stars
By Jim in Dayton, Ohio on 05/10/2010

Climb-ups are a major tool in bed bug control. I have a bed bug company and use climb ups on every job. If you have a large bed post it will be to big for the climb up. Metal bed frames work very well…

The product was received quickily, but should have been mailed in a confidential manner based on what the product was and not in a box indicating the name of the product. Because of this I would prefe…

Exactly as expected, fast service, as advertised product. Interesting that "grandma" used to have these in glass "back in the old days" these were standard for all homes, only in glass.

Expert Response  Expert response:

The interceptors will only capture bedbugs if they are coming from other areas than the bed. We recommend you thoroughly treat the bed with appropriate products such as encaements, treat the frame and move the bed away from the walls. If the interceptors capture bedbugs capture bedbugs at this point you will know that the bedbugs are in other areas that also need to be treated. Please a few moments to read pour bedbug guide to learn more about this treatment: http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/how-to-check-for-bed-bugs-a-450.html

My Legs Are Too Fat!!
4 of 5 stars
By Barb in Roxboro, NC on 09/29/2018

This is a good product but the top legs on our bed are too thick so they don't fit right. They are fine on the bottom and the idea behind the design is a good one.
