What pesticides are effective against bed bugs?

Bed bugs are resistant to most types of pesticides. They are highly resistant to pyrethroid pesticides. Pyrethroid pesticides are those whose active ingredients are a synthetic version of pyrethrum. Pyrethrum is a natural plant based pesticide. There are hundreds of different pyrethroid pesticides. Pyrethroids are the most commonly used pesticides today. They are also the least expensive and least toxic to mammals. If the active ingredient ends in the letters “thrin” then it is a pyrethroid. Some examples of pyrethroids are Permethrin, Cyfluthrin, Deltamethrin, Bifenthrin to name a few. On most of the labels for pyrethroid pesticide it states the following statement. “Not to be used as sole defense against bed bugs”.

How many times should the pesticide treatment be applied?

Often times we kill the infestation with a single pesticide treatment. Other times it takes two or three treatments to eliminate the bed bugs for good. Some companies come out on a schedule of every 14 days or so for three treatments. Each time you have to prepare your home for treatment. Each time you have to remove linens and wash and dry them. Each time you have to be out of the house to allow pesticide to dry. We do things differently. We care about you. We try to disrupt your life as little as possible.
