Spring break 2016 is upon us.

This year’s busy spring break travel season comes on the heels of reports showing that bed bugs are on the rise in hotel rooms. While bed bugs do not discriminate, they will infest a luxury hotel just as easily as they will the roadside motel, it is wise for everyone to take proactive action against the bloodsuckers.
This month’s Bed Bug Authority talks about preventing bed bugs, no luck needed.

In addition, our sales representatives will be making personal presentations to pest management firms and our network of distributors throughout the country on how ActiveGuard® will create and secure more revenue for each and every bed bug job performed. Further, hear about some tips and guides on establishing pro-active bed bug preventative programs, a new source of renewable income! If you are interested in learning more, please contact us at info@allergytechnologies.com to arrange a time to schedule a personalized presentation about ActiveGuard® Mattress Liners and YOU!
ActiveGuard® Mattress Liners are covered under U.S. Patents 5,916,580, 6,214,365, 6,440,438 and pending patents. ActiveGuard®'s formulation represents a unique and proprietary delivery system that offers sustained bioavailability of permethrin for two years. Allergy Technologies is a subsidiary of A. Carey Co. LLC, which focuses on using philanthropy as a core business strategy for its businesses. Through its Philanprofit (SM) strategy, a portion of all ActiveGuard® proceeds go to help fund inner-city homeless and women's shelters and asthma clinics.
ActiveGuard® Mattress Liners kill bed bugs generally within 72 hours, even for many of those resistant strains studied! Newest research supports that after short exposure to ActiveGuard® of only 10 min, bed bugs regardless of their level of resistance, begin to show significant reductions in feeding (biting) and a dramatic inability to lay eggs. Real world consequences of this data include discontinuation of population growth thereby halting progression of an incident to an infestation. If you are seeking a pro-active preventative approach, ActiveGuard® should be considered as the centerpiece of your long term solution to keep bedding from being infested! As part of a comprehensive strategy for treating an active bed bug infestation, ActiveGuard® is an excellent choice for use as the final step in treating the mattress and box spring sleeping area. These liners' two year ability to keep on killing bed bugs provides for continual prevention and control against any adult bed bugs, nymphs or eggs missed during initial treatment and any bed bugs re-introduced after treatment has been concluded.
