  4. I used it too for bed bugs in pune.
    I was totally disturbed due to these bedbugs and tried almost everything to control them but every time they used to come back from god knows where.
    But dantotsu worked miraculously well and i successfully controlled bedbugs in my room.
    Few things you have to keep in mind while using dantotsu.
    1. Be patient..it will take some time to control bedbugs..say 20-30 days.
    2. Use it on every 3rd or 4th day until you see their population reduced.
    3. You might not see quick result like other insecticides.
    4. It has no nasty smell... actually no smell at all..so be careful while using it.
    5. Be careful with it if there are children in house (as there is no smell)
    This is permanent solution for sure.
