RECENT INNOVATIONS: Protection from bed bugs is ever evolving. From schools and daycares to airplane seats and courthouses, bed bugs rapidly spread, posing threats of skin irritation and allergic reactions. Bed bug prevention starts with early detection, stopping infestation at the root.
While at first glance, bed bugs share similar features to other insects, their musty-sweet odor and rust-colored stains on bedding and furniture are sure signs of an infestation. Known for their ability to easily get from one place to another, bed bug infestations quickly can develop without the right control strategy.
Zenprox EC from Zoëcon Professional Products offers a powerful solution for PMPs to effectively control bed bugs. Using the nonrepellent active ingredient etofenprox, this solution suppresses bed bug eggs from hatching and provides residual control.
Zenprox EC easily can be mixed with water and, in accordance with the label, be applied with most application equipment. This solution is one of the few labels approved for broadcast treatment indoors, making it ideal for treating large surface areas and hard-to-reach spaces throughout infested areas.
To prevent reinfestations and eliminate insect populations, use Zenprox EC as a tank-mix partner with Gentrol IGR or Precor IGR. For continued residual control, Gentrol IGR Concentrate uses the IGR (S)-hydroprene to effectively break the insects’ life cycles and provide 120 days of control.
PREDICTIONS: An increase in both urbanization and infrastructure is driving demand for PMP services. This pressure not only requires more attention from technicians but also requires educating more clients, both residential and commercial. While awareness of bed bugs is growing, so is travel frequency. Taking proactive measures to ensure effective bed bug control is critical.
