What is Aprehend?

Aprehend, the biopesticide treatment we recommend and apply is composed of Beauveria bassiana fungal spores to control bed bugs. Unlike chemical insecticides, only one application is required to treat an infestation.

How do biopesticide treatments work?

✅ Aprehend, a non-toxic biopesticide is sprayed strategically around bed frames, box springs, and furniture where bed bugs are likely to walk, creating a barrier of Beauveria bassiana fungal spores.

✅ When bed bugs come into contact with the fungal spores, they infect them on contact.

✅ The fungal spores germinate within 20 hours of contact and then penetrate the cuticle of the bed bug and colonize inside, creating toxins and depleting the bed bug of nutrients until it dies.

✅ Bed bugs become carriers, transferring the fungus to other bedbugs they contact

✅ It eliminates nymphs and adults within two weeks of contact.
