[quote=Anonymous]You know, the thing is insecticides don't work to eradicate bedbugs, but..... I have to wonder if they'd be an effective barrier. The heat treatment people and the message boards will tell you insecticides will only chase the bedbugs further into hiding, and then they'll just come out later, since the stupid little jerks can live what, 18 months?, without feeding. But if you heat treated, then used diatomaceous earth AND insecticides to create a barrier from the infected row house to your row house, I think you'd be ok. You'll never be able to seal up the connection between the two houses. But say you sealed AND used a chemical barrier? I think that might keep them over on the other side. And look, I'm no lawyer or anything close. But I think if you treated, and sealed off your side, I don't think you'd have anything to disclose. You've solved the problem on your side, right? [/quote]
