Penn State Researches a Revolutionary Bed Bug Biopesticide Called Aprehend


Bed bugs are notorious for being difficult to completely eliminate from residential and commercial buildings, even with help from an NJ bed bug exterminator. These bugs are small enough to squeeze into crevices and cracks in order to hide from detection. Researchers are working on improving bed bug killing methods, which has led to the development of Aprehend.

Bed Bug Challenges

Bed bug infestations are sometimes treated with chemical products. However, these products aren’t always effective at reaching all areas that bed bugs are hiding in. The use of heat is another common method of dealing with infestations, but it has its limits as well. Heat treatments can also be ineffective at getting rid of all bed bugs. Aprehend promises to be a more effective way to handle bed bug infestations thoroughly.

Bed Bug Biopesticide

With bed bugs becoming immune to common chemical pesticides, scientists are researching biopesticides as alternatives. Aprehend is a biopesticide that can last on surfaces for up to a few months. This provides a higher chance of being able to successfully eliminate bed bugs from a residential or commercial building. In fact, this product could end up being used to prevent bed bugs from being able to thrive and creating a much bigger infestation.
