REMOVE FROM HOUSE TO DUMPSITE, ALSO IF YOU SEE LOTS OF BLACK DOTS IN MATTRESS THAT IS A SIGN OF INFESTATION. SPRAY CRACKS AND CREVICES

AROUND THE ROOM WITH STERI-FAB. YOU MAY USE DELTA DUST IN SWITCH AREA AND OULET AREAS. IF YOU HAVE A STEAMER, STEAM ALSO HELP KILL BED

BUGS " 200 DEG." MIN . THOROUGHLY GOING OVER ANYTHING THAT MAY BE INFECTED WITH A LARGE STEAMER CAN DEFINITELY HELP. MATTRESSES, LINEN,

CURTAINS AND FURNITURE SHOLD BE SPRAYED WITH STERI-FAB EVERY 2 WEEKS UNTIL YOU ACHEIVE 100 % ELIMINATION AND THE PROBLEM GOES AWAY.

Debugging the Bedbug. Dr. Dini Miller, Associate Professor, VA Tech, was introduced. Dr. Miller provided a very informative and entertaining presentation on the topic of bedbugs – their history, biology, why they are a problem, and research on products used for their control (Attachment 32). The global resurgence of bedbugs is linked to pesticide resistance, pesticide cancellations, and changes in pesticide applications (less base board spraying). Chicken farming has been noted for bedbug infestations (especially organic laying facilities) and could be a large contributor to the problem. Much of the literature on bedbug biology is from old studies and reports. If not feeding, bedbugs can live for 1 ½ years. They are prolific reproducers. Public health concerns related to bedbug bites were presented (no conclusive evidence they spread disease; reactions to bites can be severe – or non-existent). HIV can survive in bedbugs for several days, but has never been transmitted. Another public concern is the extreme stress reactions certain individuals exhibit (at times when no infestation exists). Bedbug prevention must focus on education, monitoring – there are no functional repellants. No insecticide products will kill bedbug eggs. Dr. Miller discussed lawsuits, claims, and legislation related to bedbug infestations. In 2005, Miller began research on bedbug control using six pesticide products and discussed the parameters of the study. A lab strain and field strain of bedbugs were used in the project. Of the six products tested, five were pyrethroids. Measured in Lethal Time for 50% (LT50) for the field and lab strains of bedbugs none of the products were very effective. An insect growth regulator (Gentrol®) was tested and 48% died. Of the 52% that survived, the egg production and hatch increased in the parents exposed to the IGR. In combination with the pyrethroids, the IGRs are of some benefit (there is not much available otherwise). To be effective in controlling bedbug infestations, pest control operators must use a combination of other methods with chemical applications. "Other" methods include: monitoring with dogs; tagging and bagging with the customer; vacuuming; steam cleaning; mattress covers; fumigation; and non-toxic or "natural" products. Pest control operators must work with their clients during the inspection and involve them in the control measures. Of the non-toxic products investigated, Steri-Fab (0.22% d-phenothrin and 60% isopropyl alcohol) was the most effective in killing adults and eggs. Dessicant dusts were tested on bedbugs, and the bugs proved very resilient.
