3. Recommendations for using the aerosol

Unfortunately, no one is able to completely protect their home from the appearance of various parasites, including bedbugs. Therefore, the appearance of such unpleasant inhabitants as bed parasites can cause serious concern for home owners, and this is not surprising. The fight against uninvited guests needs to begin as soon as possible, and the recommended means for this is the Raptor aerosol for combating bedbugs.

After all, these almost invisible pests can cause a lot of trouble, such as minor irritation or redness of the skin due to bites, itching, allergic reactions and, worst of all, various infectious diseases.

Compound

Aerosol "Raptor" has a wide range of effects, affecting various household pests. It contains flavorings and solvents. But the main action is based on three insecticidal substances in the composition: piperonyl butoxide, tetramethrin and cypermethrin. They affect blood-sucking parasites as follows:

• tetramethrin (0.2%) has a nerve-paralytic effect on insects, but does not affect humans and domestic animals due to low toxicity;
• piperonyl butoxide (0.5%) is a “partner” of tetramethrin or its catalyst, enhancing the effect;
• cypermethrin (0.2%) is also a nerve poison and affects bedbugs at the larval and mature stages; has the greatest activity during the first 24 hours after treatment.

Important: The active substances act if the insect has not received its portion of the poison. Poisoning continues in the nest, during “communication” with other relatives.

Carrying out processing

Treatment of premises with Raptor requires compliance with safety rules. An aquafumigator is considered one of the safest ways to clean a contaminated area. Does not harm the environment, non-toxic.

Disinsection is carried out in an empty room. To get started, place the plastic container with the product on a flat surface in a container. The kit comes with a liquid that needs to be poured into it. The steam outlets should be positioned towards the top.

After a few minutes the reaction begins. During this time, you need to leave the room and close the door tightly. To treat a room of 30 sq. I need 3 hours. The maximum processing time is 12 hours. Afterwards the room must be ventilated. Repeated treatment is allowed after 2-4 weeks if necessary.

Operating principle

The mechanism of action of the “chemical triad” is as follows:

1. When the insect moves over the treated surface, the poison remains on its legs.
2. The insecticide penetrates the body through the chitinous cover, affecting the nervous system of the bug.
3. By contacting other individuals, the insect infects them, and they are subject to the same poisonous effect.
4. The parasites become paralyzed and die within 24 hours. The poison lasts up to 20 days, but over time its effectiveness decreases.

The effect of poison on bedbugs is weaker than on other indoor pests (cockroaches, ants). They are quite tenacious and quickly adapt to the action of toxic substances. Their survival is due to the fact that sprays and aerosols are not so concentrated and their impact is weaker.

Bedbug repellent "Raptor"

Note: If you treat the nest itself so that the poison gets directly onto the insects, this will guarantee their death. When treating places of their possible movement, Raptor cannot completely destroy parasites, since the active substances are poorly attached to the surface.

Reviews

Reviews about the drug:

• “When I noticed the bedbugs, I was terribly scared. There weren’t many of them, but I immediately went to the store and decided to buy Raptor, since this insect repellent is inexpensive and quite popular. I purchased three cylinders at once to definitely get rid of pests. I cleaned the entire room. Sprayed liberally and everywhere. Within two days I began to find dead bedbugs. Two weeks later I cleaned up and forgot about the problem.”
• “Bed bugs were found at the dacha and they started biting the child. The store only had Raptor, so I bought it. I sprayed everything I could. The smell is pleasant, no one got poisoned, no one even sneezed. But the effect was not pleasing. I found several bedbugs, the rest remained alive. Maybe there were some particularly tenacious ones, but in the end I bought a very strong and smelly product, and it helped.”

Advantages and disadvantages

When used correctly, the Raptor aerosol completely eliminates the bedbug population, leaving the apartment clean. The product has a number of positive qualities:

• due to the composition, which includes three strong insecticides, it acts quickly: insects experience paralysis and death within 15 minutes after exposure;
• since the concentration of toxic substances is insignificant, it is not very toxic and has no effect on the human body;
• has a barrier function, affecting insects entering the apartment for 2-3 weeks;
• has a pleasant aroma of jasmine or mint, without causing irritation during processing;
• does not leave stains or streaks after spraying surfaces, does not spoil soft coatings;
• affordable and sold in specialized departments of stores or online stores;

You can hire professional exterminators who guarantee 100% results.

The drug has some disadvantages:

• insufficiently concentrated composition (typical of sprays), which may affect the effectiveness of killing blood-sucking insects;
• bedbugs have the ability to adapt to this product, which ceases to affect them;
• universality of use, that is, it is designed for different pests, which reduces the impact on a specific insect.

Note: If you purchased an aerosol, but you are going to spray it after some time, then you need to store the can away from heat and light. Its contents are under pressure and may ignite when heated.

4. Spray one area for no more than 2 seconds to avoid creating a wet spot or puddle;
5. The treatment is carried out in a continuous line, which the bugs are not able to cross.
6. Particular attention is paid to the nests in order to spray the parasites themselves and their larvae (treating open areas will not give the same effect).

It is convenient for her to process uninhabited premises: warehouses, garages, dachas (in the off-season). In apartments, this procedure is dangerous due to the high permeability of the suspension of toxic particles.

Raptor remedy for bedbugs

Raptor trademark is familiar to many users - a huge number of products against all kinds of insects are produced under it. Blood-sucking parasites are not left out of attention either.

Advantages and disadvantages

It should immediately be noted that the “Raptor” product is not used exclusively against bedbugs . This is a universal drug against most crawling insects. This is one of its main disadvantages , since its action is not targeted against bedbugs, larvae and eggs.

At the same time Raptor has many advantages for which buyers choose it as a remedy for parasites:

• Widespread - the aerosol can be purchased at almost every hardware store;
• Safety to use - its components are selected so that they do not emit substances toxic to humans into the air. Even if the product is accidentally inhaled, in small quantities it is harmless and quickly eliminated from the body;

• Economical in use;
• Convenience - the use of the product does not require preliminary preparation, mixing the solution, etc.

Release forms

The Raptor product is available in many forms, but an aerosol and aquafumigator are best suited for killing bedbugs .

Aerosol “Destruction of crawling insects” is available in the form of a spray can. It contains active substances - cypermethrin , tetramethrin , piperonyl butoxide , various solvents and flavorings . As the name suggests, it can simultaneously be used against cockroaches, ants, and other insects.

Another product from the Raptor line, which has proven itself well in the fight against bed bugs , is an aquafumigator . It consists of two containers with insecticides and a bag of distilled water.

ATTENTION! When using an aquafumigator, you must leave the room very quickly - the smoke it produces causes a strong suffocating cough.

When connecting the containers, a strong reaction begins with the release of thick white smoke. It quickly spreads throughout the room, penetrating into every crevice and hard-to-reach place.

In addition, you can find the Raptor product on sale in the form of a fumigator , trap and gel . However, it should be noted that they do not help against bed bugs .

For example, a gel and a trap work on the principle of luring an insect to a poisoned bait, but the bug only reacts to human blood and is not interested in anything else.
