New Product Detects Early Bed Bug Infestations

NightWatch Bedbug Monitor for pest control operators helps control bed bug outbreak worldwide

PUTNAM, Conn., June 2 /PRNewswire/ -- BioSensory, Inc., manufacturer of environmentally-sensitive pest management products to monitor bed bugs and control mosquitoes and biting insects, announces the release of its NightWatch(TM) Bedbug Monitor -- an innovative new product for pest control operators to use to detect bed bug infestations at the earliest stages.

It is undetectable by the person being bitten and by the most expert professionals in the field. At first, the person thinks the bite is a pimple, then a rash. By the time a skin reaction is recognized as insect bites, the infestation has grown to hundreds of bed bugs and eggs and is expensive to eliminate. Early detection is key.

"Unfortunately, due to the cryptic and secretive behaviors of bed bugs, infestations are often not detected for several months or more, allowing the population to become well established," notes Richard Cooper, entomologist/technical director of Bed Bug Central (Lawrenceville, NJ) and co-author of the official Bed Bug Handbook: The Complete Guide to Bed Bugs and Their Control. "The population distribution of and infestation that is detected early on tends to be rather isolated and can typically be eliminated with relative ease. However, over time, the bugs will disperse and become widely distributed and are much more difficult and expensive to eliminate. For these reasons early detection is absolutely critical in the control of bed bugs and can equate to hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars in savings during t
