Grass Roots and at The Big Carrot. You can also get DE from Canadian Tire but its $3.00 cheaper at the health food stores.
Only the Nuvan is labelled to kill bedbugs but they all contain 2,2-Dichlorovinyl dimethyl phosphate 18.6% !!!
Here is the cost per 200 square feet
Hot Shot No Pest Strip
$2.50 (includes shipping cost and if you order more than one the savings is even more. One Strip covers 1200 square feet).
$1.90 approx when you buy 3 (includes shipping cost to Toronto.......yours might me more so check with seller)
Nuvan ProStrips Vapor Pest Control LARGE size QTY 3
$2.75 (includes shipping cost and each strip covers 1200 square feet)
Nuvan ProStrips Vapor Pest Control SMALL size QTY 12
$4.00 (includes shipping cost and each strip covers 200 square feet)
Ortho Home DefenceMax No Pest Strip
$9.00 (plus tax and one strip covers 300 square feet)
To use ddvp strips for small containers or closets do the math.
EXAMPLE CLOSET
1200 sq feet for the large strip and your closet is 300 sq feet.....Just cut the strip into 4 strips (1200 divided by 300 equals 4) and seal the unused strips back in the package and seal the opening with masking tapes because the air activates the DDVP.
EXAMPLE BIN
1200 sq feet for the large strip and your bin is 20 sq feet.......That's 1200 divided by 20 equals 600..........wow so I would get the small ones for these or you could just cut it into 30 piece or so.
All the strips will kill all bugs in 3 days
but if there is eggs you have to wait until they all hatch so keep everything closed with the strips for approx 3
weeks................The strips will keep on working up to 4 months.
PLEASE WEAR GLOVES AND A MASK AND ONLY USE THE SCISSORS FOR THE DDVP STRIPS AND NOTHING ELSE.
