Harris Bed Bug Killer, Black Label

I think I spoke too soon on my first review on the Harris bed bug spray... Now if you want the bed bugs to be gone within 5 minutes get the golden label but the darker label does also work as well but it takes three or four sprays to get the job done and you have to be consistent with them because bed bugs are crafty!! When the toxic poison hits them they find new places to hit and you have to go in every corner baseboard sidewall spray your clothes down wash them in the laundry mat etc you don't have to throw your clothes away just wash them in the washer and then dry them on high heat the highest heat and highest heat kills these buns but you have to be consistent you can't just spray the room one time and it's done.. It takes a lot of patience and willpower to get rid of these dirty critters. The bed bug spray does work but if you want to get rid of these pestilence in 5 minutes get your golden label one yes it's pricey but since this stuff works then why wouldn't golden label one work too?? My first what review was thinking this ain't worth a darn don't waste your money blah blah blah.. it taken me four times to spray my room and I have not seen praise Abba a bed bug within 4 days... So please buy the Harris bug spray if you need to but you got to be patient patience is a virtue on this... Yes it can be exasperating at first but once you get the job done the itchiness goes away you can rest at night without scratching the snot out of yourself going beside yourself everty time you look and have to squish them unmercially... Once a job gets done it's really peaceful and restful you don't have to be squirting every 5 minutes with cheap sprays that say they work but yet they don't Harris is indeed the best of the Best.. Three or four times of of heavy spraying will get rid of these pestilences. And also used to powder and get you some clear packaging tape after you put the powder within the baseboards and then they're trapped they can't come through the walls if they used it bed bug killer powder and dust stuff and if you take the cracks of the baseboards and older unit in older apartments you got them by the balls... I can't get anywhere they're trapped and then they die because the powder kills them before they can get you. So please don't lose hope get to Harris bed bug killer that kills eggs and bugs on contact and if you want them all done in 5 minutes get the golden label plus don't forget the bed bug killer powder and some clear packaging tape that will also do the job with your baseboards and your holes and your walls that they crawl through.. And please don't buy the cheap stuff with just a three or four star rating read the reviews before you buy the chemical that doesn't work..lol Raid is mainly for ticks please cockroaches and stink bugs and gnats fruit flies.. Raid is not as good on bed bugs as Harris... And plus Harris does not have a foul odor like all these other chemical ones but try to not get it in your pet's food make sure the pets food/water bowls are washed if you have to spray guess you don't want them getting sick from the spray. Yes my first review was pretty harsh and judgmental and my apologies I need to get the stuff a chance to work first before I leave a negative review.... That was my fault because I was not patient with the Harris spray in the beginning. That I owe the company and apology because the stuff does work I just need to get my head out of my hindquarters and give it a chance to work..

So, my story begins with a friend I love dearly, who obtained the bugs and eventually they made their way to me. In the beginning i couldn't afford anything like this, so i settled for a 16 oz bottle of Eco Raider, and for a time, it worked! however all i did was spray the TOP of my mattress and box springs but i didn't really deep clean anything (and i also didn't think to turn my box springs over) After a couple of days the blood stains reappeared and so did the bites, but i was all out of my bottle.I was at a loss and didn't know what to do, so I turned to amazon once i got some funds and eventually found Harris (to be clear Eco Raider works! I just couldn't afford the 300 dollars for the same size, as i am a poor college student and used loans to purchase this alone) While mine did not come with a sprayer, its no big deal, as i just put it in my empty bottle of Eco Raider, and it lasts for a long time! (the entire couch, and floor around my bed plus my dresser took up the 16 ounces and i still have a crazy amount more in the gallon) If you aren't 100% sure you have Bed Bugs, attached to my review i have images of blood stains on my sheets (with a size comparison, size 7 ring) and their fecal stains at the corner of my box springs. Classic signs, even if you haven't seen them physically. I also have a size comparison of the actual item and my 16oz spray bottle just in any case :3. First steps: First day i received it, i came into my room and saw a bug on the wall. My first sighting. With one single spray the bug halted in its tracks and curled up. I left it on the wall for 30 mins or so to make sure it was dead...and it was! Already this has my 5 stars. I ordered a box springs case and today am getting serious and cleaning out my entire room. I would recommend if you have a dresser close to your bed, to take the drawers out and dry ALL your clothes in the dryer on high 70 mins per drawer of clothes, and use the spray to get every crack of the dresser. Dont just focus around your bed as they travel! Also, vacuum!!!!! vacuum your whole floor and move everything!!!! since the first night i sprayed (doing this dresser cleaning was the second day i had it) i already see dead shells on the ground under my bed and am only getting bit once or twice a night. second steps: It was Traumatizing. I spent the entire day after the first seriously cleaning and spraying everything in my room (minus the dresser since i got it the day before though i did vacuum under it) The hardest part...was lifting up my box springs and seeing all the eggs and bugs underneath, just clinging to the mattress in their little nests. I know its difficult to face but it must be done! Personally, I cried. it was so disgusting. Harris is a God send. Literally, with a single spray they Die, the eggs actually burst. Make sure to spray your bed frame too as I saw some dead bugs and one live one there too (fleeing most likely) . After all that, I put on the box springs cover (Utopia Bedding Premium BB proof encasement, good and inexpensive!), vacuumed again, cleaned my sheets, and..... I am happy to report, while I didn't sleep well because of BB nightmares, I did wake up COMPLETELY BITE FREE. with no blood stains on my sheets. I plan on spraying and vacuuming once again in about 10 days but after that 10 days I will edit this with my final results! UPDATE: it's been longer than 10 days since my initial review, but things have happened since then that I feel I should add. My infested friend brought her cat over once (long story) who slept on my mom's bed one afternoon and gave her the little demons as well. Got out my harris, sprayed the infected area (they where all on the head of her mattress against the wall small nest, caught them early), and literally after I sprayed them they stopped moving. I checked it again about 3 days later when my Utopia mattress cover came in for her, and every single bug was dead, hadn't even moved since the initial spraying. ALlso, my bed personally has never again been hit or been seen by another bed bug. I know this may seem expensive to some, it was for me at the time, but I promise you, this works! It kills eggs, babies, aduts, and actively keeps bugs away from sprayed areas! For your complete arsenal, I would reccomend, The gallon Harris BB Killer Utopia Bedding, bed covers (all sizes work for mattresses and box springs alike) And Cimexa insecticide dust (sprinkle this along base boards and on or around bed legs) this will kill any bugs that in the future might try and make it to your bed. I can now say I feel 100% worry free about future possible infestations and I no longer feel helpless against them! I can sleep again without worrying. Though I still have nightmares about them, I know they are just dreams, and Harrison has my back. If you are going through this, please know you are not being punished by God, Karma is not out to get you, and you are not filthy! My mom and me clean our home regularly, and are tidy (for the most part, hah!). These things just happen! You will get through this if you are willing to fight! (and, If you are religious) God is with you every step of the way, don't lose hope <3

I have never had bedbugs. Honestly, I had never even seen a live bedbug (except in documentaries that talk of infestations). When I saw a little insect creeping on the back of a chair in my living room, I collected it and researched what it was: it was a bedbug. My heart sank and thus, initiated my journey to eradicate these pests. This product is among the top-rated, available-for-retail options out there for a reason: it's pretty effective. The only reason there might be a deduction in "stars" within my rating is because the sprayer hose moves to freely in the jug and sometimes, it's hard to get product to dispense in a consistent manner. That product within, tho...it is LETHAL to the bedboogs. They run from the scent of it. It kills really well, too. So this product, in conjunction with Diatomaceous Earth (in pet and food prep areas), Cimexa (in non-pet areas, bedrooms and so on) and a Dupray "Neat" steam cleaner combined with sealing/isolating furniture was the strategy that has proven effective in eliminating the problem over the course of a couple months. It took a lot of work dispersed over this time, a watchful eye and attention to detail to address this problem, but it saved us thousands in the cost of having the Professionals do it. So over the long run, this Harris' Black Label has proven itself to be absolutely indespensible, worth every cent and highly instrumental in relieving us of this nuisance. Would definitley recommend to others. In fact, if I can say anything with regard to my ordeal, it has left me with insight on how to address and advise others, should they find themselves with a bedbug problem. Of course, another little tidbit of useful advice: "When someone gives you as gift and you suspect it might be a used item or a 're-gift' that has sat in someone's closet, isolate it and get it cleaned before you just set it in your home." I suspect that this is how we wound up getting bed bugs. While I haven't seen any bedbugs in a couple weeks now, we're still vigilant. PROTIP: Hand sanitizer kills bedbugs instantly, as does alcohol. A hair dryer will drive them out of hiding. Just be careful when trying to "smoke" them out with hair dryer-heat. The material might not be able to handle heat.

Had a family member stay a few days and brought bed bugs to the guest bedroom. One application killed the bugs with no more issues (I did re-spray every two weeks as a just-in-case a couple times). I then ordered two bottles and shipped to them for them to treat their house. Great results. No heavy poison smell, no staining that I saw.

Great product !

My granddaughter brought bud bugs to our house. She had all the bites all across her lower back and the last thing I thought it was, bed bugs. One day I was in my office and saw a red bug. I showed my husband and we looked it up & saw it was bed bugs. I immediately started looking for the best product on the market. Read the reviews on Harris Diatomaceous powder. I purchased it along with 99% alcohol from a review on YouTube. The powder didn't seem to work as I was being bit but I was on antibiotics for a sinus infection and thought I was having a reaction. The next day I had a kleenex unused at the corner of my bed and saw the bug. We had previously put the powder on the edged of the corners of the mattres and onto the box spring. Our box spring is covered sealed with plastic so the blood suckers weren't able to get in my box spring. Thank goodness. However, after stripping the bed again I saw one inside the corner of my mattress cover sheet. We used the powder waited until the next day, I read reviews on the Harris egg/bed bug spray. I ordered and it came the same day. We looked to see if the powder was working and it had not done nothing. We proceeded to use the spray and those critters were running. It wasn't a whole lot maybe 10-15 that we actually saw crawling and proceeding to die. We sprayed every crevice of the mattress, along the sides of the bed railing, headboards, baseboards and even the corners of the sealed plastic cover of the box spring as well as the edges around the bed. In my opinion as I can tell so far, the spray is better. We proceeded to do the living room furniture and the baseboards as my granddaughter was laying there as well. I bought 2 bottles and we have approximately 1/2 left from the second bottle. We will do a second round next week and at that point I can give an higher star rating on how well the liquid works. I truly hope this will do the trick. I'm not a happy camper of being bit all down my arms. If you scratch to much it becomes sore so I had to purchase an antihistamine for bed bugs to stop the itch. From the majority of the reviews, I believe the spray will be successful and my husband and I can go back to sleeping peacefully again.

Did entire apartment with this. Been safe for over a month now. Don't waste your money on anything else

In my research (Green Acres exterminor on YouTube is a great resource) many people recommend Crossfire. An issue i had is they won't deliver to certain States which brought me to this product. Upon discovering i had a small bed bug infestation, I immediately grabbed my 91% isopropyl alcohol and started spraying it on the bugs. It kills them on contact. I found the nest and eggs and scrubbed like he'll with a paper towel and the alcohol. Got my clothing,washed in hot water and dried on high heat for an hour and placed in hefty bags with some alcohol in the bags. Treated my mattress and bed frame. I bought a uhaul plastic mattress encasement and put that on the mattress. Green Acres exterminor discouraged putting an encasement on but I did anyway. I found eggs on the frame and scraped those off to prevent baby bugs. FYI, eggs look like spilled, white paint droplets. I threw out my pillows and comforter. I didnt have to but thought it best to throw out. This product came the next day. I sprayed it all over the bed frame, outlets, baseboard on the wall, door jambs, windows crevices, cabinets, drawers..EVERYWHERE they could possibly be. By the next day I saw dead bugs. I haven't seen one live one in 7 days. It's best to not spray pesticide too often because bugs adapt to it and it will lose its effectiveness. I will treat in another week if I see any live bugs. It should work in 2 treatments. If you keep getting live bugs then youre bringing them in from somewhere. The bus, a car, a next door neighbor may have them and not reporting to management. The key is to act quickly. They breed quickly. Don't let it get to a large infestation. Dealing with these demons can easily cause PTSD. So far, this product is a miracle. An absolute, total miracle. I'm thinking of buying stock in this and Crossfire because bed bugs are not going away. I hope this review helps anyone who needs it. Any questions, I'll be happy to answer. Much good luck. Update: it doesn't seem to kill the young bugs. I've seen a few young ones. Not many, though. I did another treatment. Ill just have to treat until they're gone. If you find eggs, dont treat it with this, spray 91% alcohol on them and scrape them off the surfaces. Don't chase spraying them with this product because once theyre born, you'll have more of a problem. Ill post uodates
