![]() ![]() When used properly, Bedlam will “go on dry” and is well suited for sensitive areas. If you’re not comfortable using the liquid mixture due to cosmetic concerns, use BEDLAM PLUS. Treat these areas by removing cushions and mattresses so you can reach the frame of the piece. Use a good PUMP SPRAYER to apply the mixture.Ĭouches, chairs and beds are commonly used by bat bugs as nest sites. After that, treat every 3 months to ensure they don’t return.Īdd 1 oz of Gentrol to the same tank with the Bithor. And spray once every two weeks until the problem is resolved. Most homes will require 1-2 gallons of mixed material per treatment. But with Gentrol added to the tank mix, you get much more benefit from the treatment.Īdd 1.00 of Bithor per gallon of water and plan on spraying this over 1000 sq/ft. Remember, Bithor does not work like Gentrol. This is critical as the Gentrol will effectively get many bat bugs you won’t reach with just Bithor. This means it “moves” out over a large area reaching many more bugs and not just the ones you spray. The other added benefit of Gentrol is that it will translocate. This effectively ends their life cycle if they cannot reproduce. The Gentrol won’t kill any bugs but instead it will prevent young bat bugs from reaching maturity. The Bithor will control the foraging adults by killing them a day or two after they move through a treatment. This will intercept foraging bed bugs which target where people like to rest such as beds, chairs and couches. Use this mixture along baseboards, under furniture and around beds. To start, liquid spray using BITHOR and GENTROL GROWTH REGULATOR. To solve the problem requires treatments that target their nest sites. Since bat bugs will generally forage down from attics into living spaces, simply treating rooms where you see them or get bit will not solve the problem. In the big picture, this means just treating your living area would be short sighted. They’re often times coming from some remote location of the home. Bed bugs are generally isolated to the living area of the home so you can attack them right where they’re nesting. But there are some differences when treating if you want to knock them out for good. The good news is our bed bug products will work fine on bat bugs. When it gets dark and someone retires for the evening, they’ll forage out to do their deed while you sleep. Common nests sites include but are not limited to areas behind paintings, in cabinets, in dressers, around air vents and inside electric outlet covers. They’re actually quite fast and once they know where to target someone or some pet, they’ll stage themselves nearby. They prefer to eat at night and very “stealthy”. If they make it to living spaces, they’ll find where people and pets are active. Now once the bats leave for the winter and migrate south, the bat bugs left behind will be forced to forage to eat elsewhere. So if you had bats hanging on your home’s siding or worse, in your attic, some bat bugs would have migrated off the bats and onto or into the home too. Most commonly found on bats, they’ll roost where bats are “hanging out”. And based on where you’re seeing them, it makes sense.īat bugs are commonly carried by a range of animals. The picture you sent is definitely a bat bug. I’ve been told to use your bed bug spray but will this work for bat bugs too? They just showed up after Halloween. But at night, we’re finding them if you turn the lights on after its been dark for awhile. Some are on the wall and ceiling but they’re also biting the kids so they must be in the room too.We don’t see any downstairs and we seem to be okay during the day. We’re seeing them upstairs in our bedrooms. Can you tell the difference? I sent a pic. We have what we think are bat bugs but they look a lot like bed bugs too.
