Bedbugs are resistant to DDT. Go to this thread to see links.

There is another pesticide, propoxur, that IS effective but has been banned for indoor use by the EPA.

EXACTLY! Check out www.3billionandcounting.com for the facts about not only bed bugs, but also the devastation created by the banning of DDT, and the resulting deaths of more than 3 BILLION people due to malaria. Rachel Carson’s book ‘Silent Spring’ which got DDT banned, is the biggest mass murderer that ever lived.
