BEDBUG & FLEA KILLER (17.5 oz), Pack of 1

Hot Shot Bedbug and Flea Killer Aerosol Spray is a water-based, non-staining formula that effectively treats bed bugs and their eggs, as well as fleas and ticks, without leaving an unpleasant odor. This product is designed for use in classic bed bug hiding places, including cracks and crevices around bed frames, floorboards, baseboards, mattresses, box springs, night stands, dressers, picture frames, walls, and more.

To achieve effective treatment, use Hot Shot Bedbug and Flea Killer Aerosol Spray to treat the perimeter of infested rooms, carpets, and tack strips. It can also be used on luggage to kill bed bugs and their eggs. This product should be used as one step in a comprehensive approach to addressing bed bug infestations.

Bed bugs can be challenging to control, requiring time, patience, and a consistent, multi-pronged strategy. A systematic, three-step cycle of thorough detection, consistent treatment with EPA-registered products, and prevention against spread and re-infestation is the key to successfully managing the problem.

It's important to note that bed bugs cannot fly or jump, but they can easily crawl on smooth surfaces. In large numbers, they produce a sweet, musky odor. The tales of bed bug infestations have become increasingly common, with homes, colleges, offices, and even major retail stores being affected. In fact, bed bug infestations have increased by a staggering 81% since 2000.

Hot Shot Bedbug and Flea Killer Aerosol Spray is a simple, do-it-yourself solution for spot-treating bed bugs, fleas, and other insect pests. The active ingredient, prallethrin, is a synthetic pyrethroid that is potent to insects. This water-based formula will not stain water-safe fabrics or surfaces.

To use, spray the product directly on bed bugs or in areas where signs of bed bugs and their eggs are evident, such as cracks and crevices around the bed, behind the bed frame, and in mattress tufts, folds, and seams. Be sure to allow the treated surfaces to dry thoroughly before use, and reapply after four weeks if necessary.

In cases of severe infestations, use Hot Shot Bedbug and Flea Killer Aerosol Spray in conjunction with Hot Shot Bedbug and Flea Fogger (for entire rooms) and/or Hot Shot Bedbug and Flea Home Insect Killer (for residual and contact control in common bed bug hiding places). Follow up with another full-scale treatment one to two weeks later.

If you suspect a bed bug infestation but haven't seen any bugs, carefully inspect the seams of your mattress and box spring, as bed bugs are usually very small. You can also try shining a bright flashlight in common hiding places or using a hot hair dryer to force them out. Look for brownish or reddish spots on your bedding as well.

When using Hot Shot Bedbug and Flea Killer Aerosol Spray, be mindful of books or paper items, as the product may harm them. If possible, seal fragile paper items in plastic and expose them to extreme heat or cold to kill any bed bugs.
