Even this tiny amount of pheromones will set off the sensor's alarms.Tue, 01 Feb 2011 19:31:37 ESThttp://www.csmonitor.com/USA/2011/0201/Bed-bug-summit-solution-to-infestations-not-rocket-scienceThe state-of-the-art approach is called "IPM," or integrated pest management. Basically, that means using education as a preventive tool, vigilance to detect problems early, and wisdom to devise appropriate responses. Chemicals are at best only part of the solution.Tue, 01 Feb 2011 19:31:32 ESThttp://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0016336An initial assessment of putative defense genes, including a cytochrome P450 and a glutathione-S-transferase (GST), revealed high transcript levels for the cytochrome P450 (CYP9) in pesticide-exposed versus pesticide-susceptible C. lectularius populations.Thu, 20 Jan 2011 17:32:29 ESThttp://www.dispatch.com/live/content/local_news/stories/2011/01/15/bedbugs-turn-up-in-area-schools.html?sid=101Columbus nurses are trained in detecting and handling bedbugs, Norris said.

The treated bedbugs became more susceptible to the pesticide deltamethrin, so Zhu and her colleagues propose that a detoxification process involving the cytochrome P450 enzyme is one way that bedbugs resist insectides.Thu, 30 Dec 2010 01:13:07 EST
