stubby 175 Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 what is it with some people, a guy phoned me today with a bed bug problem, he couldent figure out why, after chucking all the furniture and carpets from the room, why he still had bed bugs, I explained that they dont just live in the "one affected " room, and that all the 3 bed house would need treating, he'd already gone out and had new carpet fitted I quoted £120, he then said he had some stuff that a mate of a mate had got from another mate in rent o kill, only he was still finding bugs, and didnt really want to pay that sort of money, so he's keeping the bugs for now, lets see how long before he phones again Quote Link to post

I use a verity of insecticides that are authorised for bedbugs depending on the infestation to be honest very rarely use Ficam.W sometimes may use it on an additional visit. regards Dowen.
