The Bed Bug Beacon, from the makers of PackTite, is a bed bug monitor that emits small amounts of carbon dioxide for up to 2 weeks in order to attract bed bugs into the unit where they cannot escape. The unit is easy to setup and includes everything you need to start monitoring and trapping bed bugs except for lukewarm tap water. Until now, drawing out inactive bed bugs in rooms that were unoccupied made it difficult to be sure applied powders and sprays would have effect. This is due to the fact that inactive bed bugs can potentially remain in place for long periods of time waiting for a potential meal to return. By using small amounts of natural carbon dioxide, inactive bed bugs are re-activated allowing them to become mobile increasing the chances that the bed bugs will cross over applied powders and sprays or be trapped inside the Bed Bug Beacon.
We really like this new product and feel it will help people deal with their bed bugs not just in the bedroom, but also in other areas such as bathrooms, closets, family rooms and unoccupied areas where inactive bed bugs may be present. Remember that applying powders and spray may not be effective against bed bugs if there is nothing to activate and draw the bed bugs out including someone staying in a room or by using the Bed Bug Beacon. Bed bugs are attracted to body heat and carbon dioxide. The Bed Bug Beacon is proven to work by harnessing natural carbon dioxide as it's attractive element.
The Bed Bug Beacon also helps to detect if bed bug are present by trapping them inside the beacon. This not only help people know if they actually have bed bugs, but can also help them know when the bed bugs are gone.
Optional Refill Kit Includes a 3 week supply or 3 Bags of Mix A and 3 Bags of Mix B

Customer Reviews
Not too fancy, but it does catch bed bugs
We used it in the family room and it caught 4 bed bugs the first night. We wanted to know if we had them in other parts of the house before treating and obviously we do.

co2 bed bug product
We caught 4 bed bugs in our family room even though we thought that our exterminator had killed everything. Although it sucks to know we still have them, we can prove that we still have them.
