A couple months ago we had to pick up a whole household: beds, livingroom furniture, electronics, etc. The merchandise was infested with these palmetto bugs & unfortunately, I didn't notice until the furniture was in the store. Now, I have these bugs all over the place. They are even in the breakroom microwave and refrigerator. I have tried everything short of professional fumigation. I am so afraid of them following me home. Help, please!!! I work for a company that rents household items and also reposses the same items from people’s homes.

My wife picked one up (I will not even touch a dead one)to put in the trash, it was not dead and it bit her on the hand and left a large blister about an inch long which is still on her palm two days later. Don't say palmetto bugs wont bite. I have read several post that say “palmeto bugs don’t bite” I beg to differ from that..

I live in South Florida and it is definately one of the challenges of living in the tropics. I think I finally figured out that they have been crawling in on the palm that is located next to my bedroom window. Needless to say I want to resolve the late night creepy crawlers. when I find one moving about in the house which is rare I just take care of it and it is OK. But I have now killed five or more after coming out of a deep sleep. I am very clean. Moping the floors every night, sealing water openings, cleaning dishes and putting away food. yet they haunt me. Now I feel I must find peace. Maybe this product will help I have experienced several middle of the night episode with palmetto bugs and rude awakenings.

Don't want to spray because of my 2 dogs but I am seriously considering canceling the purchase, since it sounds as though there is no way to keep these horrible creatures out of the house.

I just killed a bunch in my kitchen with Raid, but, I am thinking of switching to something a little more Eco friendly. Thanks for the info on this site.

I was able to kill both of these fast moving creatures, but I am sure there are more around. The remodelling is almost finished and the owner is moving in soon, so I would love to try your EcoSmart produt at this construction site in Deer- field Beach, Florida.

I've tried the "buglady" but once didn't do it so am looking for other ways to get rid of these unwanted guests. Otherwise I love Fl.

We are in Fl. from Nov. to Apr. and sometimes see a few of those ugly palmetto bugs when we first get here. We have a cat so I am concerned about using other sprays inside.

It was infested with roaches before I moved in. All cabinets and flooring was removed, the house was bombed and treated professionally 4 times. New stuff was put in. I have been in a week and have found a few roaches and mice. I would love to try this product. I am guessing that they are in the walls still. I just moved into a newly refinished farm house.
