JT Eaton Acquires ClimbUp

TWINSBURG, Ohio – JT Eaton has acquired the ClimbUp bed bug interceptor brand from Susan McKnight Inc.

ClimbUp has become the international bed bug monitoring standard for pest management professionals (PMPs), said Dale Baker, president of JT Eaton.

“It’s an incredible honor for JT Eaton to add ClimbUp to our portfolio of bed bug control products,” said Baker. “I’m a pest control product geek. I had to pinch myself a few times during our acquisition conversations. I have so much respect for Susan and her accomplishments that it was almost a surreal experience.”

JT Eaton worked for months with Susan McKnight to learn the design and manufacturing process and plans to keep the process exactly the same.

ClimbUp joins a suite of new products being launched in 2023 by JT Eaton, alongside Bait Block for Rodents & Ticks, a new combination rodenticide with Fipronil for ticks, and ZendoZones Fruit Fly Traps.

“We are committed to innovation and helping the PMPs on the front line of public health. If we can make their job easier, we did our part to make our world a safer and healthier place to enjoy Van Halen," Baker said.
