#1:Review Summary
Proof has high efficacy in repelling bed bugs/) but it’s non-toxic to humans (and kids), cats or dogs. Therefore, it’s safe to use around the house. Further, it’s a residue (as left on various surfaces) will continue repelling the bed bugsfor about two weeks – which is a pretty long residue effect.
Proof, 100% spray, is made from neem oil that’ll mainly disrupt the bed bug’s reproductive cycle but may not control a massive infestation or kill bed bugs. Proof, the all-natural bed bug spray, might not give you a 100 percent guarantee in controlling all bed bugs, but it is great if you combine with bed bug traps.
