It's fairly normal to see an influx of activity of bedbugs after treating with many insecticides including Cimexa Dust, since it can be painful to the insects and something they are trying to get away from. By doing so though, they actually get more chemical on them and it usually increases the speed at which you get rid of them. While every infestation level and response is different, its a common occurrence to experience more activity or see more/be bitten more the couple days following treatment.
