![]() ![]() None of the installers that I've ever met weigh the product as it gets blown into a cavity. Now maybe the 4.5 pound per cubic foot density will alleviate that, but I personally doubt it. Some of the voids were between a foot and two feet wide. I have opened up more walls with blown-in insulation than I can count, and in every single instance there was a void at the top due to settling. I have nothing but the highest respect for the eggheads at UMASS Amherst, but real world installations will almost certainly fall below the targeted goals. ![]() ( I woulnd't spray DE into the outlet boxes, DE itself isn't conductive, but it will pull moisture out of the air, and become conductive overtime). ![]() They normally don't move from wherever they set up their home (a particular corner of the bed frame etc) until they get crowded out.ĭepending on which side your neighbor is, line the common wall with DE as a precaution, also if you do share a common wall with her unit, get those outlet/switch cover gaskets and install them under the coverplates. So bed, couch, etc, anywhere you might be sitting for a long period of time. They will usually hide near wherever they are going to feed. I've spoken to many pest control people (guests will bring them in) we take a nuke everything/salted earth approach to confirmed reports of bedbugs. Bed bugs don't deal well with heat, granted your clothes may shrink. Run all of your clothes and couch cushion covers ect in HOT water. I used to do maintenance at a couple medium sized hotels, get a big bag of DE (diatomaceous earth) and a squirt bottle thing (usually comes in a kit with the DE if you're getting a bed bug kit) and spray it EVERYWHERE in every nook and cranny (bed, couch, cushions, corners of floors/carpet/walls), also spray in your car, everywhere, make the cops who pull you over think you're a coke dealer with parkinsons. ![]()
