Happy Friday!

So people always ask me what are the benefits of using cryonite over insecticides to kill bed bugs. I have written many blog posts on the benefits and why cryonite should be the preferred method,  but today Reuters released an articled titled, “Bed bug pesticides make some people ill,” and it caught my attention. Below please find a short expert of the article that I want to share:

“The Center for Disease Control released a report saying that from 2003 to 2010, 111 people were sickened and one died from bed bug insecticide, the government agency reported in a study that is the first of its kind in the country. Nearly three quarters of the illnesses occurred from 2008 to 2010 as the bed bug population in the United States increased. Pesticide-related illnesses occurred in seven states: California, Florida, Michigan, North Carolina, New York, Texas and Washington. Some 81 percent of cases were not severe. New York City, where there were increasing reports of bed bug infestations, had the largest number of cases at 58 percent. Nationwide, 93 percent of the cases were in private homes, the study found. Although the CDC said there have not been enough cases of serious illness to suggest a large public health burden, the numbers might continue to increase as bed bugs become more resistant to common pesticides.”

As we have seen in the news, the spread of bed bugs is on the rise and it is important that we are effectively treating outbreaks from a safety standpoint. As reported in the article, there is a rise in pest-related illnesses, which means that there is room in the pest control industry to explore new ways to treat bed bug outbreaks.

For the many other reasons that I have previously blogged about, pest-related illnesses are yet another reason why I recommend that pest control companies use cryonite to treat bed bug outbreaks as it is chemical-free and save to use in all types of environments.

People always as me what is so great about cryonite. As I have described in a previous blog post titled, “The Big Question: Why use cryonite?” I talk about the key benefits of using a cryonite system and why I feel it is the best option. To recap, here are the six main points I like to convey when talking about the benefits of using the cryonite method:

  1. It kills
  2. It’s dry
  3. It’s swift
  4. It’s ergonomic
  5. It penetrates
  6. It’s poison-free

The cryonite system is for commercial use and can be part of any pest control company’s product mix. It can provide companies with the flexibilities to go after new clients like hoteliers, property management companies, shelters, senior residences, student residences, cruise ships, manufacturing facilities and hospitals because it is most technologically advanced, commercial, non-toxic & green pest products on the market.

Today I want to share some customer reviews and testimonials from clients who have purchased the cryonite system from RestAssuredMC.com and why they love using the cryonite system too.

Braemar Pest Management Services, Canada

“We have recently added Cryonite as a control measure in our bed bug treatment service protocol. Cryonite has proven to be an effective tool in our ever-expanding tool box of bed bug control products. Both our customers and service technicians alike have welcomed the use of this product as an effective, non-chemical means of quickly controlling a bed bug infestation. Cryonite has proven extremely effective in sensitive accounts such as hospitals and nursing homes where chemical treatments are forbidden and bed bugs are a public relations nightmare.”

Consumers are often curious about the best ways to kill bedbugs at any stage of life.  We say at any stage because live bedbugs are much easier to find, identify and kill than bed bug eggs. It is important that when treating for bedbugs you consider how to kill bedbug eggs as they are the ones that can “reappear” a year later after you thought you got rid of the problem.

That is why we recommend freezing with Cryonite as the best option for eliminating bedbugs and their eggs.  Killing bedbugs with cold not only kills the live bedbugs but it also freezes their eggs to death.  This means you do not have to worry about some larvae surviving the treatment inside their eggs.  The eggs too will be dead.

Another advantage of killing bedbugs with cold is that it is a poison free process.  The absence of chemicals makes it much safer to treat homes and facilities that have children and pets.  Non-toxic also means you can treat areas that will have frequent contact with your skin (bathrooms) or even areas that can have contact with food (kitchen).

Also because we are killing bedbugs with cold is we can treat your electronics.  This is one major advantage that killing bedbugs with cold has over killing bedbugs with heat, as are both poison free.  Don’t you dare treat your laptop, or around your cable box, with extreme heat unless you want to potentially fry them into short circuits.

These are just a few reasons to kill bedbugs with cold. For more tips check out the Why Use Cronite for Bedbugs page here or contact us for more information.
