asked:
Deterrent will kill bed bugs under certain very specific circumstances, but not all bed bugs. (The substance must reach a certain vapor pressure, which then causes an effect similar to fumigation, and this may only be attained in an airtight container). Naphthalene will not normally kill bed bugs, it is purely a deterrent. It will not deter all Bed Bugs either. I got demisted beetles (carpet beetles) in some stuff, and the bags were well dosed with naphthalene. They ate through the bags as well.
