Also sleep with light on now. </p> http://bedbugger.com/forum/topic/can-alcohol-keep-bed-bugs-from-biting#post-139466 Fri, 01 Jun 2012 20:14:27 +0000 Nobugsonme 139466@http://bedbugger.com/forum/ <p>Hi FedUp-- Please read the article I linked to! </p> http://bedbugger.com/forum/topic/can-alcohol-keep-bed-bugs-from-biting#post-139434 Fri, 01 Jun 2012 14:48:22 +0000 Fed-up over being Fed-on 139434@http://bedbugger.com/forum/ <p>In my experience, 91% alcohol will kill the BBs on contact but WILL NOT prevent them from bitting. </p> http://bedbugger.com/forum/topic/can-alcohol-keep-bed-bugs-from-biting#post-139413 Fri, 01 Jun 2012 13:34:14 +0000 Nobugsonme 139413@http://bedbugger.com/forum/ <p>For those who missed it in the wee hours... </p> http://bedbugger.com/forum/topic/can-alcohol-keep-bed-bugs-from-biting#post-139369 Fri, 01 Jun 2012 01:52:48 +0000 Nobugsonme 139369@http://bedbugger.com/forum/ <p>This isn't about the kind you spray, but the kind you drink.</p> <p><a href="http://bedbugger.com/2012/06/01/can-alcohol-keep-bed-bugs-from-biting/">Check out this Bedbugger blog post.</a></p> <p>And if you have comments, please click the comment button and leave them under the article.
