Harmful chemicals used in New York to combat bedbugs

The following is a list of the chemicals that Superb Pest is using at the Vigilant Hotel in NYC. It seems every time they spray there are more bugs! Some of these may well be harmful to humans. Most chemicals used in the industry do nothing to combat bedbugs, it is heat that gets them going. People spend lots of money on sprays, and this keeps useless chemicals in manufacture and useless people get wealthy. We may have a health problem on our hands in the future with all these pesticides in the environment.

One this for sure is, NYC is now a haven of bedbugs and it is losing its tourism industry. Places like the Vigilant Hotel are part of the cause, but the city does not have the wherewithal to close them down. Instead, it gets sprayed with chemicals that may add to the problem, and idiots are campaigning for DDT.

Tempo Sc EPA # 432-1363 The active ingredient is beta-cyfluthrin, a new synthetic pyrethroid and one of the stereoisomers of cyfluthrin; it is a good insecticide for mosquito control. However, care should be exercised while using it as a larvicide in breeding habitats considering its toxicity to fish.
Gentrol EPA # 2724-351 The active ingredient is hydroprene, which interferes with normal juvenile hormone levels within the insect, creating an imbalance at critical periods in insect development and maturation.
Sterifab EPA # 397-13 Active ingredients are 3-phenoxybenzyl D-cis, trans 2.2-dimethyl-3-(2-methylpropenyl) cyclopropanecarboxylate, isopropyl alchohol, didecyl dimethyl ammonium chloride n-alkyl and dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride.
Ecopco D.x EPA # 67425-16 The active ingredient is 2-Phenethyl Propionate, a botanical insecticide, which all dealers refuse to sell to users in New York State.
Demon ultrawet powder EPA # 432-1304 The active ingredient is cypermethrin, a synthetic pyrethroid used as an insecticide in large-scale commercial agricultural applications. It behaves as a fast-acting neurotoxin in insects. Cypermethrin is highly toxic to fish, bees and aquatic insects, according to the National Pesticides Telecommunications Network (NPTN). Excessive exposure can cause nausea, headache, muscle weakness, salivation, shortness of breath and seizures.
D-force-Hpx EPA # 9444-217 The active ingredient is deltamethrin, which produces typical type II motor symptoms in mammals. Type II symptoms include a writhing syndrome in rodents, as well as copious salivation. Acute exposure effects in humans include the following: ataxia, convulsions leading to muscle fibrillation and paralysis, dermatitis, edema, diarrhea, dyspnea, headache, hepatic microsomal enzyme induction, irritability, peripheral vascular collapse, rhinorrhea, serum alkaline phosphatase elevation, tinnitus, tremors, vomiting and death due to respiratory failure. Allergic reactions have included the following effects: anaphylaxis, bronchospasm, eosinophilia, fever, hypersensitivity pneumonia, pallor, pollinosis, sweating, sudden swelling of the face, eyelids, lips and mucous membranes, and tachycardia. Studies have shown many cases of dermal deltamethrin poisoning after agricultural use with inadequate handling precautions, and many cases of accidental or suicidal poisoning by the oral route at doses estimated to be 2- 250 mg/kg. Oral ingestion caused epigastric pain, nausea, vomiting and coarse muscular fasciculations. With doses of 100-250 mg/kg, coma was caused within 15-20 minutes.
