Pronto Plus®
household spray effectively kills bedbugs, bedbug eggs, dust mites,
lice, ticks and fleas that might have gotten on couches, beds or other
non-washable items in your home. Pronto Plus® is the only household
spray to effectively kill all of these pests, all with no-chemical
scent. Pronto Plus® household spray can be found in both the first aid and household aisles of your favorite stores, and is available in a 10-ounce container or a 3-ounce travel size.
Pronto Plus® uses the active ingredients 3-phenoxybenzyl-(1RS,
23RS,21RS,23SR)-2, 2-dimethyl-3-(2-methylprop-1-enyl)
cyclopropanecarboxylate, also known as Phenothrin, and
N-Octyl2bicycloheptene dicarboximide. Phenothrin is a natural occurring
pesticide that can be harvested from the chrysanthemum plant. The
chemical works by entering the nervous system of the bedbug and
paralyzing it a few minutes after the application.
Enzymes
within the insect have the ability to detoxify the Phenothrin over
time, which is why most bedbug treatments fall short and are
ineffective. Pronto Plus’® second active ingredient, N-Octyl
2 bicycloheptene dicarboximide, comes into play to prevent the
detoxification of the spray. This chemical synthesizes with the
Phenothrin, and increases its potency, giving Pronto Plus® the ability to effectively kill bedbugs.
For best results, always follow directions per label.

My Take:
We aren't traveling this year for Christmas, but if we were I'd definitely be carrying a bottle of Pronto Plus with me. I am always freaking out when staying in hotels wondering if bed bugs might be lurking under my sheets. I know that it's becoming more and more prevalent, even in the nicer hotel chains so I am glad I have a few of the travel size bottles on hand now. I actually am keeping one of them in my travel bag just so I make sure I don't forget it on our next trip. If you ask me you can just never bee too safe these days. I've heard horror stories of people that brought home bed bugs and the cost involved in getting them out of their homes. So why not make the investment now and protect yourself ahead of time when staying in a bed that isn't yours?
