CIRKIL Rag in a Bag Protocol, for Treating Bed Bugs in Electronics, Featured in Wired Magazine

Vancouver, BC (PRWEB) June 10, 2014

AgBiotech company, Terramera today announced their Rag in a Bag protocol, to treat bed bugs in electronics and other clutter, was featured in Wired Magazine. The article reported on work done by Dr. Dini Miller to validate the new protocol in her labs at Virginia Tech.

Gwen Pearson, entomologist and WIRED contributor wrote The worst has happened: youve got bed bugs. There are good methods (though expensive!) to control bed bugs in and on furniture and luggage, and you can wash clothing and bedding. But what about all your STUFF? She described the testing done to validate Rag in a Bag to treat bed bugs and reviewed Dr. Millers findings.

The results of Millers tests were spectacular; 100% mortality for eggs, nymphs, and adults after 7 days in bags containing shoes, purses, electronics, toys, and paperback books. The only exception to that perfect control record was hard-cover books. Bindings of books apparently provided a good enough hiding space that only 70% of bed bug adults were killed after one week. Thats still pretty good, and additional tests are being done to see if leaving hard-cover books in the bag for an additional week can finish off the stragglers wrote Pearson.

People with bed bug infestations can throw out thousands of dollars of personal items that harbor these pests. Having bed bugs is a painful experience, having to throw away thousands of dollars of your possessions is like adding insult to injury, said Karn Manhas, CEO of Terramera. It is rewarding to have developed a way to use CIRKIL and Proof allowing people to effectively treat bed bugs hiding in their possessions and saving people with bed bugs the added financial pain of throwing out and replacing infested items.

Terrameras patent-pending technology allows CIRKIL and Proof to kill bed bugs in infested items like electronics, shoes, purses, toys and other items. Its plant based formula is the safer smarter way to treat bed bugs. For more information visit: http://www.bugproof.com

Bed Bugs Show Up in Albany Office of Mental Health, My Cleaning Products Recommends an Organic Spray to Kill Bed Bugs …

Albany, NY (PRWEB) June 09, 2014

An Office of Mental Health in Albany in New York was recently scourged by bed bugs. News website timesunion.com relayed the details of it on its post dated June 04, 2014. Meanwhile, wanting to help the public kill bed bugs effectively without endangering anyone's health, My Cleaning Products suggested the use of the organic-based Bed Bug Bully.

According to the report, the critters particularly showed up in OMH's headquarters in Holland Avenue. And as it detailed, it left some people in the building with bites on their legs and ankles. It added that it also prompted employees to always turn their pockets inside out before going home to prevent the transfer of the pests to their houses.

The report relayed that OMH spokeswoman Kristin Salvi has confirmed the presence of the crawlies in the place. However, as it stated, she specified that the affected areas were confined spaces where OMH Design and some Office of Information Technology Services offices are located.

To resolve the issue, the post shared that a pest-control company was called-in to spray the building. It related that another round of spraying was also scheduled on the evening of June 3. Nonetheless, it said that workers were worried about the kind of pesticides used in the process.

Here is an excerpt from the report.

"Bedbugs typically live in mattresses or in hidden spots within eight feet of where people sleep, according to the federal Centers for Disease Control."

"But they're also turning up in the Holland Avenue headquarters of the state Office for Mental Health."

Bed bugs are truly some of the most annoying pests one could ever come across with. However, My Cleaning Products said that a harsh chemical-based product is not necessary to get rid of them completely.

With Bed Bug Bully an organic bed bug spray one could eliminate bed bugs effectively, stated MCP. It said that it contains no harsh chemical ingredients that could compromise anyone's health.
