No matter how vigorously the advertisements for the drug Executioner are distributed by its manufacturers, the recommendations of real people always inspire more confidence. The high efficiency of this tool allowed it to win over a certain audience. And given the low toxicity and ease of use, the drug can become one of the most popular disinsection products in our country.
How does the Bedbug Executioner work?
The prepared product is sprayed into the air and all surfaces are treated. Insects are poisoned not by contact, but by inhalation of the Executioner's vapors, causing their paralysis and further death.
Leaving reviews on the forums, users write that the bugs immediately crawl out of the cracks, behave "like drunk." If the Executioner drug gets directly on the parasite, it seems that the liquid simply dissolves the internal organs and leaves one shell.
Composition of the preparation
This insecticide is based on a 27.5% Fenthion solution, which in turn refers to a complex organophosphorus compound. It has a strong toxic effect. The drug, once in the body of the parasite, has a nerve - paralytic effect and immobilizes the insect. Causing subsequent paralysis and death of the insect.
PALACH means the smell of kerosene, which attracts parasites. To obtain this smell, special fragrances are used that are safe for warm-blooded animals.
FENTION in its pure form belongs to the II hazard class, and preparations based on it belong to the III medium toxic substance in relation to humans and pets. It must be applied in compliance with the necessary safety measures. If the room is large and the situation is running, re-processing will be required.
Composition and release forms
The German manufacturer included the complex active ingredient Fenthion in the composition of the poison, which is the basis of most insecticides used for baiting bed bugs. The suspension contains 27.5% Fenthion, perfume, stabilizer, antioxidant and surfactant are still present. The Executioner liquid is released in 5 ml vials. The product has a specific smell and a yellowish tint, but does not stain clothes and furniture.
Remember about prevention!
No one is immune from the appearance of bedbugs in the house, but you can still protect yourself. So, preventive measures are as follows:
- after visiting suspicious premises, always try to process your clothes in a clothes dryer at + 60 ° C, in extreme cases, wash at the maximum allowed temperature;
- if you spent the night in an infected room, for example, in the summer at the dacha, then after such a trip, clothes and a backpack should be dry-cleaned;
- in summer, be sure to install mosquito nets on the windows;
- it is advisable to periodically lubricate the ventilation holes with a solution of vinegar or lay out tansy and wormwood in them.

Bedbug executioner - instructions for use
An instruction is attached to the poison, which says how to dilute the product and how to treat the apartment with the Executioner so that the fight against bedbugs is effective.
The method of application is simple. For 1 liter of water, you need 2 bottles of poison, you can dilute the poison from bedbugs with water of any temperature.Before you breed the Executioner, you must take into account that the expense is quite large. On an area of 5 sq. M. you need 0.5 liters of the prepared liquid, the treatment of upholstered furniture requires doubling the abundance of spraying.
Dilute the medicine for bedbugs in the container from which the spraying will be done. For greater efficiency, it is worth dissolving 3 bottles of poison in 1 liter of water.
Before using the Executioner tool for disinfecting bedbugs, preparatory measures are required:
- Agree with neighbors so that the destruction of bedbugs is comprehensive. Otherwise, the surviving part of the parasites will leave for a while to another apartment. You can close the path by strengthening the doorway, communication systems, especially in the kitchen and bathroom.
- To leave the premises for everyone who will not participate in the procedure. Better to stay for 2-3 days with relatives, live in a rented apartment or go out into the countryside. Pets must not be left in the apartment, the aquarium must be covered.
- Remove food, dishes, to exclude the ingress of toxic substances. The things in the closet, bed linen should be left open and the preparation should be sprayed liberally on them.
- Buy a disposable protective suit, mask or respirator.
- Turn upholstered furniture, remove carpets, lamps, shelves, paintings from the walls.
- Close windows, doors.
- Disconnect electrical wiring, unscrew sockets and switches.
How to use the Executioner can be seen in the video at the end of the article. But you need to take into account that in each apartment the bugs choose more comfortable places:
- cracks in the floor, especially in parquet;
- behind the ceiling and floor skirting boards;
- under wallpaper, linoleum, carpet;
- inside switches and sockets;
- in the folds of curtains;
- behind the cornice;
- in the wardrobe;
- under the windowsill;
- behind the upholstery fabric of the back wall of the sofa;
- under the furniture legs;
- behind paintings, photos, wall mirrors.
The bed bug hides inside the mattress, in the seams of linen, pillows, blankets. Additionally, you should process the balcony, ventilation holes, vestibule.
Important! Bedbug baiting should take place simultaneously in all rooms. Processing lasts up to 3 hours. You should not be in the room unnecessarily.
After the procedure, you cannot enter the apartment for 8 hours (preferably longer). Then you need to carry out a number of activities:
- Ventilate the room for about an hour.
- Wash the dishes, even if they were covered during processing.
- Wash clothes, bed linen at high temperatures, steam pillows, blankets or dry clean if possible.
Important! Pets can be allowed into the house by first cleaning the floors and all surfaces.
It is unlikely that all adults and larvae will die after the first procedure, so re-treatment is necessary after 5-7 days.
Safety measures during use
Observe the following safety precautions when using the Executioner insecticide:
- During processing, be sure to use safety glasses and latex gloves;
- Isolate the treatment area from children and pets;
- Do not exceed the dosage of the substance stated in the instructions;
- Do not mix the drug with other insecticides;
- Avoid getting the insecticide on indoor plants and food;
- Thoroughly rinse the treated surfaces several hours after the first treatment.
Help with accidental poisoning
The drug contains toxins, therefore it is extremely dangerous if ingested. The symptoms of poisoning are as follows:
- Dizziness and headache;
- Convulsive activity;
- Sweating and watery eyes;
- Vomiting;
- Sharp abdominal pain;
- Diarrhea;
- Heat.
Important! In case of poisoning, it is necessary to give the victim activated charcoal, and then take it to a medical institution for gastric lavage.
Where to buy and how much does it cost?
You can find out what the price and where to buy the Bedbug Executioner on the Internet. The official website offers 1 bottle for 70 rubles and provides addresses of stores representing the interests of the manufacturer.
How much a specific consumer needs to buy is hard to say. It depends on the degree of infection and the area of the room. To process a two-room apartment, you will need at least 20 bottles.
Residents of large cities can order in the online store a remedy for bedbugs Executioner with home delivery. In other regions, the official representative will send the product by mail. The cost of sending is from 250 to 350 rubles, depending on the number of bottles. You must pay for delivery by cash on delivery upon receipt by mail.
Bed bugs are common obligate synanthropic blood-sucking insects and ectoparasites of humans and warm-blooded animals.
It is difficult to remove house bugs feeding on blood on their own, therefore, experts recommend using for this purpose a highly effective and easy-to-use, fast-acting means Executioner (Scharfrichter), which has proven itself to be excellent in getting rid of parasites of different types of premises.
About the manufacturer
The production of the original remedy for bedbugs executioner has been established by other companies as well. The chemical insecticidal preparation has a state registration certificate RU.77.99.88.002.E.002675.06.17 dated June 14, 2017.
Over the past fifteen years, the company has produced and sold a huge number of really working products that are designed to combat parasitic insects in professional and domestic conditions.
produces a wide range of various high quality disinfectants, which ensures the maximum possible use of drugs in terms of simplicity and comfort, and also guarantees high results at minimum costs.
Since 2002, the manufacturer has regularly registered and introduced new and well-proven goods to the domestic market. Since 2005, all products of Alina-Nova's own production have been supplied with destructible original holograms.
What is the "Executioner"
Before diluting a disinfestation agent, you need to understand what the drug used is.
Insecticide "Executioner" is used on objects of different categories, including residential and non-residential, industrial and utility premises, as well as public catering buildings.
These products were developed by the German company Bayer, and before mass use, the insecticidal preparation passed a full range of all necessary tests, which confirm the high efficiency and complete safety of the composition for people of any age, as well as various pets.
In addition to the simple mechanism of application of a modern insecticide, when using it, there is no habituation in insects, due to which the drug may well be recommended for subsequent disinfestation.
It can also be noted that there are no difficulties in cleaning the room after disinfestation with Scharfrichter and the residual odor is fairly quickly eroded.
Advantages and disadvantages of the tool
Based on the fact that domestic bugs are distinguished by high innate resistance to many toxic substances, it is very important to choose the right drug that provides not only a guaranteed high, but also a safe result for people and animals.
The category of such funds includes the modern insecticide "Executioner", which is characterized by a huge number of benefits proven by clinical trials and user reviews, as well as some disadvantages that must be taken into account in the process of choosing a drug and its use.
Among the most important advantages, many users of the Executioner insecticide note the availability of purchasing the product in retail outlets and online stores, a long exposure time (up to fifteen days), guaranteed safety for animals, adults and children, ease of independent use and economy.
For example, to fully process the entire area of a one-room standard apartment, you will need to purchase about ten bottles of the Executioner.
The disadvantages of the drug include the presence of a characteristic and specific odor during processing, which disappears quickly enough even after a short airing of the room.
The mechanism of action of the means "Executioner" on bedbugs
Bed bugs or house bugs belong to the category of insects that have an incomplete transformation cycle, therefore they do not have a pupal stage, and the larva turns into an adult insect through several molts and during puberty.
Thus, the entire cycle is represented by three main stages: an egg, a nymph and a mature individual, ready for reproduction, reproduction of offspring.
Despite the fact that the average lifespan of a domestic bug is only one and a half years, in such a short period of time the insect manages to lay about 250-500 eggs.
At the same time, at each stage of ectoparasite development, its resistance to unfavorable external factors varies markedly, which sometimes implies the use of an integrated approach to the issue of combating household insects.
Under natural conditions, the average rate of reproduction of bedbugs is naturally limited by superparasites - insects capable of laying eggs in the body of the bug, which causes its death, but domestic ectoparasites can only be destroyed by special means, which include the insecticidal preparation "Executioner".
After applying the working composition of the insecticide to the treated surfaces, water gradually evaporates, therefore, a solvent is released that complements the active substance.
The merging drops of the agent form a thin film, on the surface of which insecticidal crystals are formed. It should be noted that porous materials that quickly absorb moisture (for example, fabrics and paper) contribute to a faster destruction of the product and a completely natural decrease in its effectiveness.
The active toxic substance enters the body of a household insect by airborne droplets and by contact (through external integuments) by way.
In the process of contact with household ectoparasites, the toxin acts as a neuroparalytic agent, affecting the nervous system of the bug, as a result of which paralysis first occurs, and then the death of the insect is observed.
The penetration of active toxic components through the cover shells contributes to the effective and rapid destruction of the eggs of domestic bugs and their larval stage, which prevents the further spread of infection in the room.
Composition and release forms
The composition of the drug may vary depending on the form of release of the drug: emulsion concentrates, powder products and disinsection gels.
The key active component of the drug is the toxic substance fenthion. The synthesis of the modern highly effective and fast-acting insecticide "Executioner" by German specialists in the field of chemistry took place in 1960.
The concentration of the active substance in the "Executioner" is 27.5%, and the fenthion itself is a colorless oil, poorly soluble in water and various technical liquids.
Diluting pure toxin on your own is very problematic. In the process of gradual heating, fenthion begins to volatilize, and this process is accompanied by the active formation of poisonous vapors.
According to Russian standards, such a substance is classified as a very dangerous and highly toxic compound with a characteristic and fairly pronounced garlic odor.
The most common uses for fenthion are:
- extermination from insect pests and parasites in premises for various purposes, including human dwellings;
- processing of natural locations in order to completely destroy ticks, which are carriers of encephalitis and borreliosis, which is dangerous for humans;
- processing of detected large and small egg-laying mosquitoes and flies, as well as other insects.
Additional components in the composition of the preparation against bedbugs "Executioner" (Scharfrichter) are stabilizers and preservatives, prolongers of exposure, as well as high-quality emulsifiers that maintain a homogeneous structure of the solution and a perfume fragrance for effective leveling of a very characteristic chemical odor.
At the same time, stabilizers are responsible for the stability of the composition to temperature changes and minimize the risk of destruction of active components under the influence of ultraviolet radiation, and fenthion is activated with a special solvent, which can be easily preserved using a standard antioxidant included in a chemical insecticide.
The best analogues of the "Executioner" tool according to users
Modern contact-intestinal insecticides of a wide spectrum of action have a high initial toxicity and are distinguished by a long protective period, they destroy adult bedbugs, and have a larvicidal and ovicidal effect. In addition to the German means "Executioner", several highly effective drugs have similar properties.
Liquid emulsion "Dobrokhim FOS" based on 20% fenthion and auxiliary components, intended for domestic use and professional disinfestation, is highly effective at a high level of population of objects. The average price is 1896 rubles per liter.
Liquid emulsion "Medilis-Super" based on 24% fenthion and excipients retains its activity for a long time, which helps to completely get rid of ectoparasites at all cycles of their development. The average price is 400 rubles for 50 ml.
Gel in tubes and syringes "Forsyth" based on 25% fenthion with the addition of stabilizers, antioxidants, fragrances and a solvent is distinguished by the preservation of residual effectiveness for three to five months and the creation of a reliable protective barrier. The average price is 1300 rubles for 500 ml.
Liquid "Medilis" based on 25% cypermethrin differs in the duration of the residual effect on indoor surfaces for 1-3 months, which depends on the concentration of the agent and the characteristics of the treated surface. The average price is 1200 rubles for 500 ml.
Instructions how to use
For effective disinfestation, the Executioner is recommended to be used twice. The first application ensures the massive death of ectoparasites, as well as larvae and egg-laying, which have been sprayed with an insecticide. A week later, during the second treatment, the surviving individuals are destroyed.
Before you start cleaning the premises, you need to correctly calculate the total consumption of the drug.
It is categorically impossible to deliberately increase or decrease the concentration of the agent, since a change in proportions negatively affects the result.
Each bottle (volume 5 ml) is designed to treat 5 m2 of the infected area, and dilution allows you to get 50 ml of the working solution.
First, a thorough preparation of the room is carried out with complete isolation of all residents of the treated room, including pets. Aquariums can be taken out or hermetically covered with glass, as well as plastic wrap, after turning off the compressor. Houseplants are optional.
Food, medicines, ectoparasite-free clothing and personal hygiene items must be packed in special airtight bags.
It is important to fill up all the cracks, de-energize the room, remove carpets, mirrors and paintings. Maximum cleaning of the space increases the access of the insecticide to all locations of ectoparasites and their offspring.
The preparation of the insecticide for treatment requires special attention.Before diluting the drug, you need to carefully study the instructions attached by the manufacturer, as well as check the expiration date and make sure the originality of the drug (the presence of a special protective hologram).
First, the required amount of clean water at room temperature is poured into a prepared container with a volume of 500 ml with a spray bottle, after which a bottle of "Executioner" is poured.
After the container lid is tightly closed, the solution is thoroughly shaken. To obtain a large volume of working solution, it is advisable to purchase a special container of maximum displacement, complete with a spray gun.
A high result is provided by the treatment of the room with an insecticide using a standard cold steam generator. The required amount of solution is diluted immediately before use, after which it is poured into the corresponding bowl for liquid, which is equipped with all modern steam generating devices.
It is categorically impossible to allow long-term storage of the finished toxic mixture, since in this case, stratification of the working solution and a noticeable decrease in its effectiveness are often observed.
First of all, the places of rest and sleep, represented by beds, mattresses, and upholstered furniture, are abundantly treated with an insecticide.
In some cases, with significant contamination of furniture items with bed bugs, it is recommended to rip open the fabric covering from the seamy side of the sofa or mattress, and then spray the insecticide working solution directly inside.
At the next stage of processing, the main and potential foci of localization of ectoparasites are disinfected, which are located near furniture, in cabinet drawers, near baseboards and cornices, lampshades and sockets, door and window openings, in ventilation holes.
After completing the main treatment, the working solution is also sprayed on the balcony or in the loggia, as well as in the vestibule.
With a large number of bedbugs, walls and floors, linen and carpets are treated.
Immediately after treatment, it is important to close windows and doors, and then be sure to leave the disinfected room for about eight hours.
Intensive spraying of the "Executioner" agent can cause a specific chemical smell to appear in the room, therefore it is recommended to thoroughly ventilate the treated area before cleaning.
All things that have been sprayed with insecticide are sent to the wash.
Upholstered furniture, carpets and mattresses must be thoroughly vacuumed, and all surfaces are washed with clean warm water. A week later, the room is carefully examined to identify surviving ectoparasites.
If necessary, re-treatment with an insecticide is performed.
Security Methods
According to the degree of toxic effects on the body of humans and warm-blooded animals, the German insecticidal agent "Executioner" (Scharfrichter) is classified as class III - low-hazard drugs in accordance with GOST 12.1.007-76:
- European Commission - II class of hazard;
- WHO - II class of hazard;
- US Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) - Class II hazard.
However, the use of such a chemical working solution to treat ectoparasites in an area implies standard personal safety.
Do not allow direct contact of a toxic substance with the skin and mucous membranes. It is also important to remember that prolonged exposure to chemicals significantly increases the risk of poisoning.
In order to protect against the effects of toxic insecticide, it is necessary to wear long-sleeved clothing, a hat or scarf, and rubber gloves before spraying.
Respiratory protection is provided by a respirator or mask.
Failure to observe precautions when treating premises with chemicals can cause malaise, the main symptoms of which are dizziness, lethargy, nausea, diarrhea and vomiting.
In this case, it is necessary to provide the victim with first aid: take 10-12 tablets of activated carbon, go out into the fresh air, provide an adequate drinking regime, wash off the drug from the skin and mucous membranes with plenty of clean water.
If you have a severe form of allergy, you should immediately contact a medical institution.
Official site: where to see instructions
Developed by a well-known German company and tested in army barracks, the Executioner, a long-acting drug, began to be marketed in Russia only five years ago.
Thanks to the acquisition of a license, the production of the highly effective insecticide Scharfrichter has been established today by several domestic chemical enterprises, including the well-established company Aventis CropScience Deutschland GmbH (Germany):
An affordable price and proven high quality is possessed by the products manufactured and also sold by the official domestic representative, who on his website provided complete information on drugs against ectoparasites and instructions for the use of the German prolonged-release insecticide "Executioner":
The cost
The total cost of processing an infected object is affected by the size of the area, as well as the level of infection. At high rates of infestation by household insects, the average consumption of the drug increases markedly.
Among other things, the cost of the purchased chemical insecticide depends on the total volume of purchased products.
Additionally
The popularity of the drug has led to the fact that there are a lot of counterfeits on the market. Read the instructions on how to choose the right product for you. First of all, you need to pay attention to the bottle. On the original there is a hologram with the image of a bug. If the bottle is gently turned in different directions, then you can see how its image turns into an ant on the hologram. If this does not happen, or another image appears instead of an ant, then you have an obvious fake.
The product is sold only from the official representatives of the manufacturer. Also look at the composition of the executioner preparation - it must necessarily be fenthion. An executioner is also produced in small quantities, in which the main substance is cypermethrin - its effectiveness is high, but it is harmful and contraindicated for humans.
Pros and cons of the remedy
An executioner against bedbugs has positive and negative sides that must be assessed before the procedure and decide whether to buy the drug or not.
Benefits:
- With good ventilation, the active components of the Executioner disintegrate within a day.
- Does not stain furniture and clothing.
- The specific smell disappears quickly.
- According to the manufacturer, insects do not develop immunity to Fenthion.
Disadvantages:
- High price due to the high expense of funds. Therefore, first you need to calculate how much the entire processing of the apartment will cost in the end, and not be guided by the price of 1 bottle.
- The drug can cause allergies and breathing problems.
- Before poisoning bedbugs, a tremendous preparation should be carried out. After the procedure, there is still more work to be done.
- When processed by the Executioner, all insect larvae and eggs do not die.
Advantages and disadvantages of the Executioner.
Summing up, it is worth noting among the many advantages of the drug its low cost, the possibility of using it in any type of premises - residential, warehouse. There is no need to invite specialists for processing. But the main advantage of the "Executioner" is that it is able to destroy most of the existing species of parasitic and blood-sucking insects in homes.
The disadvantages include the extreme toxicity of this agent for all living things, including the human body. If it is necessary to process large areas, one bottle of the drug will not be enough.
However, the merits are immeasurably greater. And everyone who had to share a bed with such terribly unpleasant neighbors as bugs hungry for human blood will undoubtedly agree with this argument. There is also little pleasant in the invasion of house ants, the need to share food with cockroaches that penetrate everywhere, even in the refrigerator.
All these uninvited aliens claiming a place in a human dwelling carry with them unsanitary conditions with the danger of contracting all infections of dirty hands and those intestinal diseases that have fecal-oral routes of spread. The real savior from all of the above is the Executioner insecticide to kill bedbugs and other dangerous insects.

Reviews of the means Executioner against bedbugs
Before using the Executioner, it is advisable to read whether the poison from bedbugs helps to get rid of completely, as the manufacturer guarantees. On the web, user reviews are mixed.
I have bugs at home for a long time, from the moment they moved into the purchased "stalinka". I was so worried that the condition can be called clopophobia: I am afraid to sleep, turn off the lights, open my bag at work. It always seems to me that these bastards are crawling.
I etched with Dichlorvos, Karbofos, drew lines by Mashenka. I cannot say that the effect is zero. For a while, these creatures are not visible, then they reappear. I have already thrown away the sofa, I am sleeping on the floor. After reading the reviews on the remedy for the Bedbug Executioner, I "bought it" and bought it. The result is the same as from Dichlorvos. One good thing is that it does not smell so strong and disappears quickly.

All the time I thought that these parasites only start in sloppy people and that such a problem will never affect us. But a month ago I began to notice red spots on my body. Moreover, only me. We decided that it was an allergy. And when they noticed the child, they sounded the alarm. Raised the mattress, and there is a whole den. The bed was thrown out because they did not know how the poison acts on bed bugs, what to buy and how long to wait for them to become extinct.
Unfortunately, the problem was not resolved, the bites appeared again the same night. Then, on the recommendation of a friend (he said that the chemical was thermonuclear), we bought the Executioner from bedbugs, the price is not very attractive, given that our three rubles took 40 bubbles.
The remains of the parasites were raked out a lot, everything was washed and washed. We were very pleased because the bugs were really gone. And today a neighbor came running in horror and said that she had found a nest. Probably will be back soon.

We never encountered bedbugs and did not even know what they looked like until we woke up with incomprehensible red spots after returning from vacation. It turned out that at this time the neighbors were poisoning bedbugs with the Executioner and were very pleased. As it turned out later, in vain.
These creatures (not all, of course, but only the survivors) migrated to our apartment and multiplied while we were resting. In a panic, we did not even begin to figure out the best way to poison. We found out where this Executioner is for sale, my husband went to the market and bought it. We did everything according to the instructions, went to our parents for the weekend. The cleaning service was sea, and the effect was weak. Apparently, bedbugs still adapt to poisons. Now we do not know what to do, we are afraid to turn off the light. The neighbors are also shocked.
