Designed to exploit bed bug movement patterns, the low-profile black cups let insects climb in but block escape, giving you early detection and a physical barrier while you plan treatment. Durable construction and an eight-piece pack make this set practical for two beds or multiple pieces of furniture in homes, rentals, and lodging facilities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do these interceptors detect bed bugs quickly?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe TruGuard X interceptors sit under each furniture leg and intercept bed bugs as they travel between hiding spots and a host.
