As intrusive as the creepy crawlers may be, the need to exterminate bedbugs is very real. Since bed bugs are nocturnal feeders, you may never see them. That’s why hiring the best exterminator for the job is important — especially if you find one crawling on your skin again.
Aprehend™ is a natural alternative to other bed bug killers that may contain toxic chemicals. Made from cedar oil and grapefruit seed extract, it’s safe and effective in removing bed bugs from your home. A unique mixing ball inside the bottle allows an exclusive patented formula to penetrate deep inside the mattress, so there’s no hiding place for those pesky insects.
Aprehend (aprehens) is a treatment for bed bugs that is designed for use by landlords and home owners. It provides complete control and elimination of all functions of the bed bug including nymphs and eggs and is safe for use on beds, furniture, carpets and other locations where bed bugs are found.
Aprehend Bed Bug Killer
Aprehend Bed Bug Killer
Aprehend is a new product that was developed by a company called BioSafe Systems. It is based on a specific strain of fungus that was discovered at Penn State University, and it has been proven to not only kill bed bugs but also prevent them from coming back.
As far as how it works, we’ll get into more detail in just a moment, but first let’s cover what you need to know about the product itself:
Aprehend is a highly effective bed bug treatment and prevention product.
Aprehend is a unique product that is based on a fungus that was developed at Penn State University. The active ingredient in Aprehend, which is called Metarhizium pingshaense, is non-toxic and non-repellent to bed bugs. This means that it does not repel the bed bugs away from you or your home; rather, it will kill them when they come into contact with it.
Aprehend has been proven effective against all life stages of bed bugs including eggs, nymphs, adults and even their eggs!
Using Aprehend, a single application provides more than 90 days of control.
It is important to follow the application instructions exactly.
- Use a hand-held vacuum cleaner to thoroughly clean the item of furniture or suitcase that you are treating.
- Shake well before using.
- Remove cap from nozzle and dispense directly onto fabric, upholstery, mattresses and other soft surfaces at a rate of approximately 20-25 drops per square foot (0.5 ml per 25 cm²) or apply in line with seams, zipper tracks and piping as necessary for optimal control; if applied on pillows or cushions replace the coverings after treatment (see label). Apply Aprehend only where there is evidence of bed bugs such as fecal stains or shed skins/exoskeletons on surfaces that are easily accessible by applying directly to mattresses and box springs that have not been encased in plastic.
The product was based on research that was done at Penn State, where they developed a specific fungus that is lethal to bed bugs.
The product was based on research that was done at Penn State, where they developed a specific fungus that is lethal to bed bugs. The fungus attacks the insect from within, killing it and preventing it from reproducing.
The Penn State research team has discovered that this particular strain of fungus has the ability to kill bed bug nymphs (younger stages) as well as adult stages of the insects. The spores are introduced into the home through an aerosol spray or powder, which helps spread them throughout your home and kill any remaining bugs you may have missed when you first sprayed.
The fungus works by directly attacking the nervous systems of the insects, and is long-lasting because the spores remain viable for several months.
The fungus works by directly attacking the nervous systems of the insects, and is long-lasting because the spores remain viable for several months. The spores are applied directly to bed bugs in their harborages, where they germinate within a few hours and grow hyphae into the bed bug and release toxins. Bed bugs die within 7-10 days.
The unique part about this formulation is that it does not break down or lose its effectiveness when exposed to sunlight or water, so it can be applied both indoors and out.
The unique part about this formulation is that it does not break down or lose its effectiveness when exposed to sunlight or water, so it can be applied both indoors and out. In fact, the spores are viable for several months after application. The liquid formulation also means you won’t have to worry about putting your family at risk in order to treat your bug problem—you don’t have to worry about handling toxic chemicals if you’re using this product!
A single application of the product can control even large infestations.
A single application of the product can control even large infestations. The active ingredient, the synthetic pyrethroid deltamethrin, works by disrupting the insect’s nervous system, causing it to die. It is also a contact kill that acts fast and kills on contact with exposed skin, eyes and other mucous membranes.
Deltamethrin has been shown to be effective for more than 90 days for a single application. This means that you only need to treat your home once — no matter how many bed bugs are present or how bad their infestation is — instead of multiple treatments that could be harmful for yourself and your family members (including pets). In addition to being effective in killing both adult and nymph stages of these pests, Aprehend does not require vacuuming or washing before re-entering treated areas because they are non-hazardous products safe enough to use around children and pets without any dangerous side effects such as rashes or burns on exposed skin areas like hands/feet/face etc..
For best results when using this product please first vacuum away any loose bed bug feces before treating infested surfaces with an aerosol sprayer such as those found at Walmart ($10-$15). After spraying all surfaces where these insects might hide within crevices use dry cloths to remove any excess liquid left behind before allowing them back into their homes again; otherwise they may continue hiding on those surfaces after being sprayed which defeats its purpose since we want them dead not just chased away temporarily.”
Aprehend provides excellent control and long-lasting residual effectiveness for all types of bed bugs.
Bed bugs are one of the most difficult pests to control. They are not only a nuisance, but can also cause health problems for some people. Bed bug infestations have become more common in recent years due to their resistance to many pesticides that were once used for bed bug control. Aprehend provides excellent control and long-lasting residual effectiveness for all types of bed bugs. It is a new product that uses a specific fungus that was developed at Penn State University by Dr. Bill Hager (who was recently inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame).
