BDS™ is a patented device designed to detect bedbugs BEFORE they proliferate and infest a new location.
BDS™ simulates the conditions that bedbugs consider “perfect harborage”: tight, dark tunneling and rough woodsy material. (Common examples are the small grooves of corrugated boxes, mattress creases and wood furniture.)
Through careful research of bedbug biology, AP&G have developed a trap that imitates these patterns. If bedbugs are nearby, they are drawn to the BDS™ and trapped in its patented dot-matrix adhesive.
Is BDS™ Foolproof?
A “negative” reading on a BDS™ monitor does not necessarily guarantee that there are no bedbugs.
AP&G were driven to design this first-of-its kind device by simple economics: the bedbug monitors currently on the market cost from as “little” as $20-$25 to as much as $600! At these rates, it is difficult to imagine a large-scale program being used in a 250 room hotel, or a 400 unit apartment complex. BDS™ is priced at a fraction of these costs, giving pest management companies the tools to employ a comprehensive inspection and prevention plan that is focused on early detection.
After a bedbug treatment, BDS™ should be installed to illustrate that the treatment was effective and to help identify any post-treatment activity. How Is BDS™ Used? |
BDS™ is designed as a detection device and should be utilized in any place that people congregate:
