    Just a FYI, most bed bugs are immune to insecticides already.

    Tests and studies have shown that insecticides work as well as water for killing bed bugs. 25% kill rate and lowering each year.

    The best tool against bed bugs is heat (Steam cleaner) or Diatomaceous Earth.

      The time I had bedbugs we killed them with an ant’s insecticide. Looking up the active chemical found its banned in the US and the EU because it induce abortions and fetus malformation.

    I think that just results in billions of dog sized bugs being dead no? Isn’t it a lack of available oxygen in the air that keeps their size down?

    Granted, every flying insect becoming as large as a dog and plummeting to the Earth instantly would be fucking horrifying.

      The inverse-square law means that most insects lack the body structure to withstand their own weight at that size, which would mean a horrifying moment or all insects growing and then imploding under their own weight.
