Worst Bug Infested Houses

  There was a hoarder house in my town that got infested with bedbugs, roaches, and probably a multitude of other bugs so badly that the city and fire department actually did do a controlled burn to get rid of it.

  Bedbugs aren't a matter of  cleanliness. You can have the cleanest house and still end up with bedbugs. There are decently cleaned hotels that you wouldn't think would have bedbugs.  Bedbugs actually are infestations is er infestations from people who would bring in things that they feel are useful. There's a reason why you have to cut into mattresses before you throw them out. Cut into old couches. Make them unusable.

  As a pest control technician I&apos;ve run into both roach and bedbug infestations worse then the first two on this list. <br>The worst bedbug one I&apos;ve ever seen had bedbug carcases 2 inches deep along the baseboards and carpet of the home. The mattresses and linens were soaked in bedbug frass and blood. It was.... Unpleasant. Lol

  The first story is a rare example where arson would be legally considered a public service.

  I have been a pest control tech for over 20 years. First, the “German” cockroach infestation at the beginning of this video CAN be avoided. This type of infestation is due solely to uncleanliness and filth in someone’s home. German cockroaches are mainly looking for a food source, whereas other outdoor roaches such as, American, Smokey Brown and Brown Banded cockroaches are generally looking for a water source. This is why you see these big roaches outside under moist areas like straw beds and moist soil. Ants, no mater how large the infestation, can be controlled and eliminated, you just need to terminate the source which is the colony and that can take time and several applications of insecticide. Termites are generally silent destroyers until noticed due to home damage. Bed Bugs can be extremely difficult to eradicate fully and they are probably one of the main insects that I hate the most. Stink bugs can be guided elsewhere and should be handled gently to avoid the secretion. &nbsp;One thing that isn’t pointed out in this video is the fact that lady bugs are a protected species and if caught killing them it can result in major fines. We don’t kill lady bugs at all. It’s the same as bats, it is a $10,000 fine PER bat if you harm them. Law was passed in 1972 to protect them. You can relocate them from someone’s home, but never kill them. Yellow jackets are very annoying and their stings are very painful. Thankfully, I’ve never seen a nest like this one. Honey bees can cause a serious sting as well and it swells pretty bad if not treated. Carpenter bees don’t generally sting, they just eat wood but they can be controlled rather easily. Mosquitos are everywhere here in the south, just use repellent. Most of these insects can be controlled rather easily, you just have to know what chemical is best for what pest and then find the source, eliminate it, and continue preventative maintenance.

  I have dealt with 3 bedbug infections. 2 in my mom&apos;s house. My bf at the time and I were gonna move in together. So we threw our clothes in the washer and dryer on high heat and place them in bags that you can use a vacuum to shrink them. As an extra precaution we left those bags in the car for 4 days when we got to our new place since it was summer. By some miracle the bed bugs didn&apos;t come with us. When we found out the place we moved to was in foreclosure we had to move again. When we moved into the new apartment we found out the whole apartment complex had bedbugs. When my bf and I broke up I stayed in the apartment. When I met someone and it got serious I moved again and did the same wash and drying clothes with the bags vacuuming down and leaving them in the car for a week in the heat before bringing the clothes in to the new apartment and again by some miracle the bed bugs didn&apos;t come with me into the new place and thankfully this place had no bedbug infestation prior too moving in and is still bedbug free. Sadly I lost over 95% of my things cause of these bugs. I had to get new clothes and new things it was frustrating and expensive but it was worth it

  When I was a child growing up in So CA, cockroaches seemed to be a common thing. &nbsp;One time my mom decided to get the house fumigated before we moved so we didn’t “take them with us”. &nbsp;When we came home afterwards, we had to sweep up dead roaches by the dustpan full. &nbsp;It was so gross.

  Unfortunately, that ant infestation happened to my room at my lowest point of depression. Very very humiliating, glad I no longer have that issue!

  Man that bedbug infestation wasn’t that bad, I used to work for Bugs B Gone in indianapolis, poor old blind woman had no idea she had bedbugs or what they were. I am not ashamed to say that i she’d some tears for this lady, no one wanted to help her or inform her of what was going on, I am not lying when i tell you as soon as i opened the front door which was on the opposite side of the house where her bed sat, as soon as i walk in the bedbugs greet me at the front door crawling and nesting on the door frames, walls and baseboards, this lady was blind so her house was not the cleanest, she had boxes and clutter pulled up to about your shoulders, these bedbugs were nothing like i have seen before, not afraid or worried of any pretense, these things usually hide and run from you, the ones i found stayed put and were almost all full of blood! Big o chunky ones, thousands of dead bedbugs pulled and piled on top of eachother ranging from the size of a hand all the way up to almost the size of a shoe, thousands of even more live ones, this lady’s skin was the type to not be affected much by a big bite, though you can still see that something has been biting her on almost anywhere you look at her skin, man i hope no one that is blind or unaware of bedbugs ever has them as bad as this lady, no only were they in the bed but in every box and just about thing that sat next to her bed was loaded including the ceiling!
