Bedbug Traps all over the World

Question, does the room need to be vacant when using this trap or can you sleep in the same room while using the trap?  Were you able to eradicate all of your bedbugs using this method or do you still find them from time to time?  Thank you!

 

@__Joe S__ Excellent questions, it will give you the basics of the trap.

The trap works best when the room is occupied. Bedbugs are attracted to the CO2 of our breath and they follow it to find us where we sleep. Moving away from our usual sleeping place will make bedbugs look for us and they will follow us, making a second harborage close to this new place where we now sleep.

Bedbugs are also attracted by the heat of our body. They can see us from a distance using night vision (also called infrared vision or thermal vision), we cannot hide from bedbugs with our body at 98.6°F against a room temperature background of 70-80°F. In the eyes of the bedbugs we glow like embers in the night. We are the only warm spot in the room and that is what they always search to feed from our warm blood.

Bedbugs spot the warmth of our body across the room and then follow the CO2 of our breath cascading down from the top of the bed and on to the floor, to find us when they get close. Body heat and CO2 are the only two bedbug attractants. So it is what we use to make a trap that stops them and defeats them.

We know that bedbugs will always find us and will always come towards us at night to feed. All we need is to make obstacles and lures placed in their path to make it impossible for them to reach us. There are bedbugs hiding somewhere in the room and nobody can find bedbugs when they are hiding. But we know that they will come out, and we know which path they will take to get to us while we sleep.

The first thing to do is to eliminate all pathways they take to climb up in the bed. Bedbugs cannot jump or fly. So we need to create a small space between the bed and anything else that might touch it. Move the bed ½” away from the walls and any other piece of furniture, that way there will be only the legs of the bed that bedbugs will be able to use to climb up in it. Since bedbugs follow CO2, place four traps, one behind each leg of the bed. Bedbugs will detect the CO2 emitted by the traps and will follow it, climb on the outside of the small glass pitfalls made especially for them and will fall in the pitfalls, never being to get out since the inside is made of slippery glass impossible to get a grip on it and climb out. Bedbugs inside a glass filled with CO2 die of suffocation in 12-24 hours. All bedbugs in the room now have to use the floor to try to feed, and all bedbugs have to feed. All bedbugs will be lured by the CO2 from the traps, so all bedbugs in the room will end up into the traps. That is how we clear bedbugs out of a whole room.

Now, there also are bedbugs already in the bed. Those bedbugs will not go down to the floor and will not be caught by the traps. To stop those bedbugs, we need to cover the bed with a shield. A bedbug shield is made with a regular contour sheet placed directly on the mattress to which we fix a plastic skirt hanging down all the way around the bed. The plastic skirt is a long strip of plastic, about 2 feet wide by 25 feet long. You can get this plastic in a local hardware store; ask for a painter’s plastic 2 mils thick. You can get it for only a few dollars and it will last until there are no more bedbugs. Fix the plastic skirt to the sides of the mattress, leaving a small space (about one inch) above the floor. Once adjusted in place, cover the mattress with the fabric contour sheet (we use fabric because it is more comfortable than plastic which can become slippery and sweaty), and seal the sheet to the top of the skirt with duct tape that adheres well to both plastic and fabric (I suggest white duct tape to make the seal of the shield look better). Here is an example how to make your own bedbug shield: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Wy-ry66A7U.

As soon as you put a shield on the bed, all bedbug bites stop. Bedbugs cannot go through the fabric of the contour sheet, no more than they can go through the plastic of the skirt. The shield is an impenetrable barrier that keeps the bedbugs on one side of the shield while you can sleep soundly on the other side without getting a bite. It is the same simple logic of putting a screen in the window if you do not want to be bothered by mosquitoes.

With a shield on the bed and CO2 bedbug traps on the floor, no bedbug can reach you and bite you. Every time they try, they end up in the pitfalls where they get suffocated by the CO2 or they get stuck under the shield where they cannot bite and end up starving to death.

Will you ever find a bedbug from time to time? No. The shield and the traps eliminate bedbugs right down to the last one and catches them and eliminate them as soon as they try to get to you. It is the ultimate defense against bedbugs and prevents them from ever coming back. This has worked for tens of thousands of people so far and nobody has ever regretted making their own bedbug traps. If you want something done right, my father used to tell me, do it yourself. You are in control with the bedbug shield and the bedbug trap.

With all my respect

+JnSavedByTheBell Thank you Jules.  Very much appreciated.  I made my first trap using your instructions tonight.  I will work on the bed shield tomorrow.  Thank you so much!!  —Joe
 

@__Joe S__ I’m glad you found something for you in our meeting. The trap works, it can catch a single bedbug or a thousand. Sometimes people have difficulties making their own traps. Using glass, plastic, sugar and yeast to get rid of bedbugs is not what they expect and the idea is totally against what the Industry wants us to believe. Their best interest is that we cannot do it ourselves. Of course!

But you will be free of bedbugs; all by yourself you will eliminate all of them right down to the last one, without any possibility of spreading them. That’s the power of a lure and an impenetrable barrier. Meanwhile, we can sleep soundly without a bite; the shield takes care of that while the traps catch them on the floor.

CO2, body heat, bedbug traps, bedbug shields. Take the time to have a look at http://julesnoise.com/ and find more about bedbugs and the CO2 Bedbug Trap.

Bedbug in a ring - White

Nándor Nagy-Fülöp

How long does a trap like this lasts?

 @__Nándor Nagy-Fülöp__ Longer tha any bedbug can last. The yeast and sugar mixture lasts 2-3 weeks and must be renewed about 5-6 times but the trap can be kept running as long as you want. Mine have been running for four years as sentinels against bedbugs and I never had a bite since day one. I keep them running because I still regularly go in bedbug infested places to make traps for others. I still do it locally and I have been doing it on the internet for about three years now. The hundreds of thousands of traps I made all over the world eliminated millions of bedbugs and nothing would please me more than eliminating the ones you are stuck with without any mean to fight back, other than poison.

I do not poison children, old and ailing people. I prefer to make bedbug suffer through CO2 suffocation and starvation to death. I hate pesticides with a passion. So here it is, a bedbug trap that is all natural, based on the strengths and weaknesses of the bedbug. A bedbug trap that catches and starves them when it does not suffocate them.

And it is so simple, Nándor Nagy-Fülöp, all you need is the know-how and anybody, anywhere around the world can make their own, without giving money to no one, other than the inexpensive things you can get locally.

 

The whole trap costs less than 15$ (mostly sugar and yeast every second week), and the longest a dormant bedbug can last is three months without feeding at human room temperature. That is how long you must run the traps, If I kept mine running till now, it is to use them as prevention, If I ever bring a bedbug home, it will come towards my bed when I sleep at night. It can see me but cannot see my sentinels waiting and luring it into a deep glass pitfall.  in one of my traps before it will get to my shield

Bedbugs die of starvation when you do not let them feed on your blood. As simple as that, we have bedbugs only because they can feed! Make them stop it and you will become bedbug free. It makes sense, doesn’t it?

Here is the way to starve them. As soon as you will put a bedbug shield on your bed, all bedbug bites will stop at once. The Shield is an impenetrable barrier between you and the bedbugs. Anybody can make one. It keeps bedbugs from being able to reach you, no matter if they are hiding somewhere in the room, dormant or not; or already in the bed.

  • Bedbugs that cannot feed cannot molt and grow.
  • Bedbugs that cannot feed cannot lay eggs.
  • Bedbugs that cannot feed cannot survive.

And that’s exactly what the bedbug shield does. It keeps bedbugs from sucking your blood and thrive on it. Take your blood away from bedbugs and they have nothing to feed on.

An impenetrable barrier and four deadly lures behind each leg of the bed. Winning the bedbug war, are you in?

One thought on “Bedbug Traps all over the World

  1. Jules,
    Suddenly, after 5 months, my son is getting bitten again. The shield worked great all winter, but we must have put something on the bed that had a dormant bug. Now we have at least a dozen. The shield seems fine with no holes. What do we do ?

    Also, i have NEVER caught a bug in any of my traps these past 5 months. I put 4 fresh ones to work 5 days ago, with zero caught so far. John Levasseur recommends 2 cups of water, 2 cups of sugar, but only 1/4 teaspoon (tiny) yeast to yield 16 days of CO2. He says that higher amounts of yeast will deplete the sugar faster. I used your recipe (1 tablespoon) and got the nice 1 inch of yeast foam in the mixing glass as you instructed. Do you think the yeast amount should be reduced ?

    No Bugs Caught…..ever
    Thanks
