Don't try this at home!

An Ohio man lit his home on fire while trying to kill bedbugs. According to UPI.com (link), firefighters said the man caused $600 worth of damage after he attempted to eradicate the pests with rubbing alcohol while smoking a cigarette. "The occupant was trying to self-exterminate bed bugs and was spraying the couch with rubbing alcohol while smoking a cigarette," Fire Chief Stan Deimling said.

Instead of getting to the point of infestation, this man could have detected the bedbugs early on using Catchmaster BBEDS
