Fill a 1.5 liter bottle with water then add 150 g of sugar and 30 g of brewer’s yeast. Then take a fairly large plate, spread a little talcum powder and place the bottle on the plate in the center. Some time later, bedbugs will be attracted to the mixture which will produce CO2. Once they reach the talcum powder dish, they will not be able to get out because the powder will stop them. And if you want to make it more effective, cover the bottle with a plastic bag to carry the scent to the ground and attract them even more.
Alternative methods to eliminate bedbugs
Other approaches can help you combat a bedbug infestation, as long as it is at an early stage.
Isopropyl Alcohol: Start by pouring 80% isopropyl alcohol into a spray bottle and identify bed bugs using a flashlight.
