The scarcity of bed bugs in many countries over the last 50 years has resulted in a lack of modern research into the toxicology of this pest. Although bed bugs resurged in the late 1990s, published research related to insecticides has lagged behind and only began to appear in 2006. The difficulty in controlling bed bugs triggered the interest of both private and academic sectors to determine the value of currently available insecticides. What follows, is updated information on effectiveness of products, studies on insecticide susceptibility, identification of mechanisms of insecticide resistance and chemical strategies proposed to overcome resistance in modern bed bug populations.
在过去50年里，许多国家臭虫数量稀少，导致对这种害虫毒理学的现代研究匮乏。尽管臭虫在20世纪90年代末卷土重来，但与杀虫剂相关的已发表研究却滞后了，直到2006年才开始出现。控制臭虫的困难引发了私营部门和学术界的兴趣，以确定现有杀虫剂的价值。接下来是关于产品有效性的最新信息、杀虫剂敏感性研究、杀虫剂抗性机制的鉴定以及为克服现代臭虫种群抗性而提出的化学策略。
