CARTERSVILLE, GA.—To help combat bed bug infestations, BugBand, Inc. has developed Bed Bugs No More!, a naturally derived pesticide that kills bed bugs and eggs on contact, then continues to repel the blood-thirsty pests for up to two weeks. Bed Bugs No More! relies on Geraniol, the same naturally derived active ingredient in BugBand’s line of environmentally-friendly DEET-free insect repellent products.
Bed Bugs No More! uses a highly concentrated, Swiss-developed version of Geraniol, which kills adult bed bugs, eggs, larvae, nymphs on contact by attacking their exoskeletons. Standard pesticide products are nerve agents that only kill insects with developed nervous systems.
Fall 2010 tests by Morocco’s Hassan II Institute of Agronomy and Veterinary Medicine confirmed the product’s effectiveness, concluding that it “has a very good insecticide efficacy against bed bugs.”
Ideal for everyone from hotel management to travelers to homeowners, the water-based formulation in Bed Bugs No More! is nontoxic, and safe for children, pets and around food and food preparation areas. It is biodegradable, and will not stain most fabrics and upholstery. The product is available in a 16 ounce spray-bottle applicator.
Bed Bugs No More! is currently available at www.bugband.net.
