Q:Do I have to leave the house once I use Harris black label bed bug spray.
by|Aug 9, 2023
1 Answer
Answer This Question

A:  Hi Pjcool! Harris 1 Gal. Bed Bug Killer directions state do not come in contact with surfaces until after it has dried. Vacating the house is not necessary but treating one room at a time and not returning until the spray has dried (usually a couple of hours) is recommended. Thank you for your question! //pfharris//

                  A:  Apply the liquid sprays as well as the powder lightly and uniformly as a crack and crevice treatment. Have other people and any pets out of the room while applying and allow to return to the room after totally dry; approximately 2 to 3 hours. Do not over apply. Thank you. P.F. Harris

                      Q:Will these products work in a car? How and where do you apply? Gave a guy a ride and found out he was carrying bed bugs. Vacuumed car about 2 hours later and while doing so found 2 adults and 2 nymphs. I don't want to bring these into my house.

                      A:  Leave your car sit in the sun all day with the windows rolled up , the heat will kill any bed bugs.

                        A:  Set the traps down on the car floor, the bugs love going into creases so I would sprinkle the powder in those and to SPRAY, SPRAY, SPRAY! I can almost never get rid of mine but being persistent with these disgusting pests is the trick.
