ClimbUp Original Insect Interceptor, manufactured by Susan Mcknight, is a pitfall trap no larger than 3 3/4" that can easily be placed under the legs of furniture like couches or mattresses to block travel pathways for bed bugs or trap them leading to death from dehydration.

This specially designed product allows the bed bug to crawl up only from the outside as they try to reach the furniture, and then become trapped as the inside of the ClimbUp Original Inspector Interceptor are too slick for pests to climb. This not only allows the user to eliminate bed bugs without the use of pesticides, but it also allows for easy treatment of trapped bed bugs.

ClimbUp Original Insect Interceptor is a non-toxic and easy to clean trap for various stages of bed bug activities.
