In 2008 we realized that the number of bed bug infestations was sharply increasing throughout the United States and that traditional pest control methods, which involved using multiple, potentially dangerous, chemical applications, were ineffective in eliminating these insects. As such, we set out to develop a solution that would effectively and efficiently eradicate the bed bug epidemic without further polluting the environment or endangering humanity. The Problem: The Bed Bug Problem World travel and international commerce has led to the infiltration of insects into North America from other parts of the world. One of the biggest and most prolific problems over the past decade has been bed bugs. The bed bug epidemic is nationwide with all 50 States reporting bed bug infestations.
