NightWatch Bedbug Monitor Detects Infestations Early

PUTNAM, Conn. — BioSensory announces the release of its NightWatch Bedbug Monitor – an innovative new product for pest control operators to use to detect bed bug infestations at the earliest stages.

BioSensory developed the NightWatch Bedbug Monitor based on knowledge of a bed bug’s physiology and an understanding of how the pest seeks a blood meal, combined with extensive field and laboratory testing.

NightWatch is designed to function as a lure and monitor, as it mimics a living, breathing human body - combining CO2, a proprietary kairomone lure, and a patented thermal lure for a powerful three-pronged attractant and trapping system. When bed bugs approach to feed on what they think is a human, they fall into the pitfall traps made of highly polished material and cannot escape. NightWatch can catch both mature and immature bed bugs, since the monitor’s detection period spans the 7-10 days bed bugs take between meals.

BioSensory recommends NightWatch Bedbug Monitor as one part of an Integrated Pest Management program (inspection, treatment and monitoring, reinspection). NightWatch is available for commercial use through distributors of professional pest management products in the U.S., Canada and around the world. Distributors include companies such as Forshaw Distribution (Charlotte, NC), Residex, LLC (Cranford, NJ), Rhodes Chemical (Kansas City, KS), Steve’s Pest Management (Chatham, Ontario CANADA), Target Specialty Products (Santa Fe Springs, CA), and Univar USA (Austin, TX).
