Product Overview

Packtite

PackTite heat treatment device is a safe, non-chemical bed bug treatment device that uses heat to treat bed bugs that may be found in personal items such as clothing, suitcases, books, cds, shoes, purses, luggage, pillows, and countless other items that you may not be able to treat with traditional chemicals. The PackTite oven uses patent-pending technology that thoroughly heats your personal items to a temperature that is proven to kill bed bugs and their eggs in all stages of their life cycle, without damaging your belongings.

How to Use: PackTite heat treatment device is easy to assemble and use. It includes a countdown timer that shuts the unit off after a set treatment time. Simply place your suitcase (or other bed bug infested items to be treated) on the rack inside the PackTite oven and place the thermometer in the center of the treatment load. Close the PackTite portable heat treatment zipper and plug in the unit. Set the timer for the desired treatment time (varies by type and number of items being treated). Last but not least, monitor the temperature to insure that the contents reach 120 degrees (F) and hold that temp for 1 hour. All the bed bugs and their eggs inside the PackTite portable heat treatment device die. Please watch the video which demonstrates set up and use of the PackTite treatment device.

This device is basically a small heater and a wire shelf inside a duffle bag; plug it in, it heats up. There's a timer and indoor/outdoor thermometer included in the box, but they're not automated or connected to the packtite; it's up to you to visually check the time and temperature from time to time. There's only one shelf inside the device, so it's not very useful if you're putting in a lot of personal items. The temp got up to 125 in about 40minutes, then up to 143. I'm going to buy a wire shelf to place on top of the single shelf, so that I can at least put stuff on two levels. This feels like a successful high school science project; it does the job but not much else. Definitely NOT worth $288, but unfortunately there's no other device like it out there.

It worked well except for one thing: The thermometer went on the fritz, and eventually stopped working entirely, somewhere around 110 degrees. It wasn't the batteries (we tried 2 brand new sets). Possibly it was from the heat of sitting on the PackTite, but there is nowhere else to put it. It needs a better thermometer; for the cost; there ought to be one.

This device works well as long as the suitcase is not full of clothes. It is best to remove clothes, put them in a plastic bag and immediately wash in hot water. The suitcase and non-washables can be easily heated without the clothes inside. The temperature in the center of the bag needs to be above 120 degrees for 1 hr to kill the bedbugs. With a stuffed suitcase, I was only able to get the temp up to 113. Lightly filled suitcase got up to between 123 and 135 degrees. Helps to cover the PackTite with a towel to keep the heat from escaping.

There has been some research that indicates that freezing temperatures can kill bedbugs, but this method is not very effective. This research says that a deep freezer (big freezer chests only, regular household fridge/freezers do not get cold enough) can kill bedbugs, but the items must be left in the freezer for several weeks. Heat seems to kill bedbugs faster and more efficiently than freezing. Steamers that reach temperatures over 120 degrees are very effective for treating mattresses, box springs and other furniture. You can use any household dryer to kill bedbugs on clothing, shoes, stuffed animals and pillows. If you have a dryer with a rack inside, you can also place books, knickknacks and other items in the dryer to eliminate bedbugs (items must be left in dryer for about 30 minutes). We also carry the Packtite Portable Bedbug Heat Treatment device. The Packtite would enable you to treat just about any object that can fit inside of the device.

It is not recommended to use the packtite to treat electronics. The packtite is meant to treat items you would not want to launder or that can get wet in a washer, such as luggage, shoes, stuffed animals, etc. Thee PackTite can heat up to 150 degrees when items are inside it. When there is nothing in the PackTite it can reach up to 170 degrees. For treating electronics such as laptops or other items you cannot heat or get wet, we recommend the Nuvan Pro Strips.
