Crossfire Bed Bug Concentrate is for inside use only in temperature controlled areas so normal indoor temps are best. If you are going to heat treat rooms, you should do so first then apply Crossfire for residual killing.
Please refer to the product label for more information.
Crossfire Bed Bug Concentrate should not be applied as a broadcast spray application onto floors, but should be applied to cracks and crevices and around perimeters of rooms for bed bug treatments. Furthermore, you would not want to mop the treated area, as you will remove the residual effect of the active ingredient, taking away the effect of the application. Please refer to the manufacturer's product label for complete application instructions, and use only as directed.
Bed Bugs will require a combination of products to treat the cracks and crevices where bed bugs hide along with repeat applications every 7 days until you can go 30 days without seeing any signs of bed bugs.
Please view our Bed Bug Kits and Bed Bug Treatment Guide for more important information on eliminating bed bugs.
While the manufacturer has not provided a level for humidity, applications with Crossfire Bed Bug Concentrate would be recommended indoors at room temperature or between 55 to 85 degrees inside the home.
No, we recommend cleaning prior to the Crossfire Bed Bug Concentrate application instead so that none of the residual is removed from the areas treated.
Per the product label, in the home, all food/feed processing surfaces and utensils should be covered during treatment, or thoroughly washed before use. Cover or remove exposed food/feed
We do not recommend overlapping products such as DE over Crossfire Bed Bug Concentrate as we do not know how they may react. You may put products near each other but do not overlap.
If Crossfire Bed Bug Concentrate froze, it is no longer effective and should be discarded. It is recommended to store the product at room temperature.
No, Crossfire Bed Bug Concentrate would be seams/spot treatment only. You can't spray Crossfire all over the encasements. Per the label for mattresses, it states, "Crossfire can be directly applied to mattresses and box springs surfaces. For porous surfaces such as mattresses and carpet perimeter areas, apply until thoroughly damp but not wet. Infested bed linens should not be treated. These should be removed, tightly sealed in a plastic bag, laundered, and dried at high temperatures before re-use. Vacuuming surfaces before treatment is highly recommended. Using pinstream, coarse or low-pressure equipment, spray directly to the mattress surface, paying special attention to seams, folds, tufts, and edges, as well as bed frames and box springs where bed bugs harbor. Re-make the bed with clean linens before reuse."
