      Just a FYI, most bed bugs are immune to insecticides already.

      Tests and studies have shown that insecticides work as well as water for killing bed bugs. 25% kill rate and lowering each year.

      The best tool against bed bugs is heat (Steam cleaner) or Diatomaceous Earth.

      This is great. You’ve made it easier to know if we have bed bugs now. And it’s a good thing we don’t use insecticide to kill bed bugs anyway. You could use diatomaceous earth, but the most effective way of getting rid of them is to have a professional kill them with steam. Your wishes are a service to humankind.
