Scholarship Program

According to the National Pest Management Association, almost all pest control professionals have treated bed bugs in 2018. A majority of them claim that the prevalence of these species of pests is increasing and now they amount to 66%. Bites are reported in more than 90% of cases of bed bug infestations while over 50% of the people living in infested homes need medical help to treat bites and welts. Isn’t it the plague of the 21st century?

What are the new techniques developed by scientists in the field of bed bug control? Using strong insecticides on beddings is an effective but unsafe way to get rid of these insects. Are there prospects for an eco-friendly approach to dealing with these pests? This is a concern of many professionals and homeowners. Indeed, those who will develop a revolutionary solution to a bed bug problem will save millions of people from allergies and skin issues. A noble mission, isn’t it? We invite you to take part in the discussion on this topic and share your views and findings with our audience.
