What Happens When Bed Bugs Encounter Our Natural Treatment Products?

Here at the Bedbug Store, we often discuss how our natural bed bug sprays, dust, and bite products protect your home from bed bugs and eliminate infestations. Our natural bed bug treatments are best because they work effectively without putting your family at risk for chemical exposure.
But we don’t often stop to think about what our plant-based bed bug treatments are like from the bed bug’s point of view. Both are eco-friendly bed bug-killing sprays, and our natural bed bug repellents—also known as crawling insect control dust or diatomaceous earth—are powerful substances designed to stop bed bugs in their tracks. We like to think that our sustainable bed bug treatment products are notorious in the bed bug world and that if a bed bug suddenly came across a dose of our crawling insect control dust in the wild (and someone wrote a screenplay about it), it might go something like this…
FADE IN:
INTERIOR OF A NORMAL, SUBURBAN HOME - DUSK
The inhabitants of the house are calmly snoozing in their beds. Sensing that night has come at last and emboldened by the dark, a nocturnal bed bug ventures out of her hiding place between the couch cushions. Her destination? The four-poster bed in which her prey softly snores.
BED BUG
“Good lord, my legs are stiff. Just ain’t the young bug I used to be. Soon, yesterday’s eggs will be hatching and I’ll be halfway to an exoskeleton.”
The bed bug scuttles out from beneath the frills of the couch, seeking refuge in the cool shade cast by a coffee table leg.
BED BUG
“Is it me, or is their bedroom getting further away? It seems like I used to be able to make it from burrow to blood-feast in five minutes flat. Now, it takes ages, and I can barely make it up to the bedpost. Maybe, just this once, I’ll take a shortcut across the kitchen…
The beg bug alters her course, heading toward the open kitchen door.
BED BUG
"Easy there, Penelope. Remember what your Mom taught you last week when you were just a wee nymph, Always stay close to the baseboards where they can't see you!"
The bed bug heads straight for the wall's path and stops short.
BED BUG
"What's this?! I've never seen this strange, white powdery stuff on the floor before."
She reaches out her snout for a little sniff.
BED BUG
“Doesn’t smell dangerous, mostly like old shellfish, but it is blocking my path…”
BED BUG
“That settles it. No time to go back around the long way. How dangerous can some dust be? I’ll just run through it really fast and be on my way.”
She scurries through the powder. Small particles cling to her legs, body, and face.
BED BUG
“See? Nothing to be worried about! Hi ho, hi ho, it’s off to eat some blood, we goo…
Oh. Oh my. What’s this pain coming from my abdomen? WHAT?! That dust cut me!
It’s just sticking into my belly like too many tiny daggers… Now I’m feeling tired...and SO thirsty. I could drink an entire tub of wa---"
