    During the hours of touring the site i came across a post where someone mentioned that the wrong treatment can push bugs into the walls and make the problem worse...

    What exactly can cause this? the use of Pyrethroids?

    Also what insecticides are the best to use for bb? understandably that different insecticides should probably be used for different applications, what is the most effective?

    I have had experience with Suspend SC doing the job pretty well, but it is illegal to sell in NY, so one has to go through other efforts to attain it. Are pesticide resistant BB resistant to Suspend? Also is this one of the more toxic ones to humans ?

    AFAIK, it's not so much the substance that's bad (though some chems are repellant) as much as how it's applied. Bombing is too indiscriminate.
