Study Identifies Most Effective Natural Bed Bug Killer

New Brunswick, NJ (PRWEB) June 13, 2013

A study was conducted by the Rutgers University Entomology Lab recently comparing effectiveness between some most seen over-the-counter products and identified EcoRaider, a product provided by Reneotech Inc, as the top bed bug killer among 11 other brands. This study highlights the effectiveness of this all-natural bed bug spray and provides an alternative for synthetic pesticides being used inside a home.

The Rutgers Entomology Laboratory, one of the most renowned in the country, conducted two sequential experiments analyzing the effectiveness of each spray on a number of bed bugs from a pre-determined distance. As reported in Pest Control Technology, "EcoRaider caused 100 percent mortality after 10 days in both tests."

With the expense of heat and steam treatments often the only alternatives pursued by homeowners, an effective and safe do-it-yourself solution to complement or replace such costly efforts has been pursued. With many products on the market making unsupported claims and with limited government regulation, the need for a scientific study was necessary to clarify which products are truly effective.

"We have worked tirelessly on the formulation of our product," said Vincent Yancoskie, the EcoRaider spokesperson. The fact that we have strict FDA GRAS compliance ensures the user that all ingredients are natural or safe cosmetic grade. And this study confirms its effectiveness."

In addition, the Federal Trade Commission has grown increasingly concerned about unsubstantiated claims from bed bug sprays both in terms of their alleged effectiveness and their safety claims. This resulted in fines of several hundred thousand dollars administered by the FTC. One manufacturer even claimed their spray created an "invisible barrier" against future infestations.

Bed bugs have been a growing public health pest in recent years, according to the Environmental Protection Agency. Consumers plagued with bed bugs experience considerable stress, discomfort, and expense in attempting to rid themselves of these pests, and many are unaware of the complex measures needed to prevent and control them, according to the EPA.

Now in addition to the pain and discomfort of a bed bug infestation, add the liability. According to a report from New York Daily News posted on June, 3rd, a jury in Maryland last week awarded $800,000 to a tenant who proved that her landlord did not treat the problem properly and harassed her when she complained.

Bed bugs continue to be major problems, mainly in cities where they can be carried to new apartments and homes nearby quickly. Whether they are traveling on their own or hitching a ride on clothing, bedding or furniture, bed bug infestations have grown to epic proportions over the last several years. Despite treatment by pesticides, steam and heat, they persist. Therefore the search for a reliable, effective treatment alternative has been actively pursued.

EcoRaider was created under the call for such demand. Its core ingredients include extracts from multiple aromatic plants that have natural insecticidal power and other safe content that is used in many cosmetic products. Safe as it is, yet it works powerfully on bugs.
