Crossfire Bed Bug Concentrate
Crossfire Bed Bug Concentrate
Crossfire Bed Bug Concentrate is a fast-acting liquid insecticide concentrate that kills bed bugs within minutes and continues working for up to 30 days after application. It has low-odor and is non-staining.
Crossfire Bed Bug Concentrate, manufactured by MGK, is an effective liquid insecticide that controls bed bugs and those resistant to pyrethroids on mattresses in less than 5 minutes.
Contains two active ingredients (metofluthrin and clothianidin) that make it so effective; it kills all bed bug life stages by contact and prevents bed bug eggs from hatching.
Crossfire Bed Bug Concentrate is also safe to apply with minimal toxicity compared to other bed bug insecticides.
Tools Needed
Crossfire Bed Bug Concentrate will need to be diluted in a handheld pump sprayer or backpack sprayer prior to use.
How to Use
- Step 1: Figure out how much Crossfire you need by first calculating the square footage of the area you wish to treat. To do this you will need to measure (in feet) the area length times width (length x width = square footage). 13 fl. oz. of Crossfire diluted in a gallon of water can treat up to 1,000 square feet. For example, if you find that the square footage of the treatment area is 2,000 square feet, you will need to mix 26 fluid ounces of Crossfire in two gallons of water.
- Step 2: Fill your spray tank with a 1/2 gallon of water, add the appropriate amount of Crossfire concentrate, then fill with the other 1/2 gallon of water. Shake the tank to make sure the product is well-mixed and you're good to go.
- Step 3: Apply Crossfire as a coarse wet spray to cracks, crevices, door frames, baseboards, floor coverings and edges of the carpet. We recommend using a fan spray pattern for even coverage. You can also apply to the seams and folds of your mattress and box spring. For this, spray at a low pressure until the fabric is damp but not wet and wait for the product to dry before reapplying bed sheets.
Where to Use
Crossfire Bed Bug Concentrate can be used anywhere you are experiencing a bed bug invasion, whether it is a residential location or a commercial location such as a hotel, theater or another place where many people gather. Focus your sprayings on your bedding, around carpeting, window and door frames, on and around baseboards, floorboards, millwork, bed frames, headboards, wall hangings, furniture, door and window frames, walls, closets, window treatments, beneath floor coverings, as well as other non-washable items that may come in contact with bed bugs such as luggage, shoes and backpacks.
When to Use
Use Crossfire when you want to eliminate a bed bug infestation or to prevent an infestation from happening.

Q:I bought 13 oz of crossfire is it correct that one 13oz bottle is for only one gallon mixture?3/15/21A:Yes. 13 oz of Crossfire concentrate plus 115 oz of water makes 128 oz (1 Gallon) of final mixed product. It is NOT add 13 oz of Crossfire to a gallon of water! You should start with half your water in the sprayer. Add the entire bottle of Crossfire. Fill the empty bottle half full with water, cover and shake. Pour the resulting solution into your sprayer. Do this 3 times so you will have tripple rinsed the container. Add the rest of the water to the sprayer and agitate well. This way you don't have eny leftovers to dispose of, and you will have tripple rinsed the Crossfire container making it ready for disposal, after you have punched some holes in it so no one will be tempted to re-use it
