ANNAPOLIS, Md. —Dr. Susan Jones, a professor of entomology at Ohio State University and her colleagues, have found a promising new tool for bed bug control programs.
The Ohio State researchers have been testing ActiveGuard mattress liners, which are impregnated with permethrin. Their research has found the ActiveGuard fabric to be extremely effective in reducing bed bugs’ abilities to lay eggs, even in bed bug populations that were resistant to pyrethroids.
The results of their research are published in an article in the Journal of Medical Entomology.
