Pesticide Bed Bug Spray

Lets start with the #1 Pesticide Bed Bug Spray – There are typically two types of Permethrin based Bed Bug Spray; there is a water base form and an oil base form. The water base bed bug spray usually includes a poison called deltamethrin or permethryn which is a residual product and continues killing bed bugs for several weeks or months.

All available testing of deltamethrin show bed bug spray to be about 50% less effective than the oil base contact killing bed bug spray; which generally include some type of pyrethrin and piperonylbutoxide base toxic chemical. These toxic bed bug spray do have residual effectiveness for up to 60 days s or two months. That means, you spray it once, and it continues killing bed bugs for 60 days. Many states do not allow deltamethrins in concentrated forms because of environmental concerns.

Many pyrethrin based Bed Bug spray like Kills Bed Bugs Red label, have a short active duration and becomes ineffective within a day of use.

Both of these toxic-based bed bug spray contain some form of pesticide; however the bed bugs have grown an immunity to many pesticides. This means they no longer work effectively on bed bugs!
