YES! If you use Nature's Defender which has Cedar Oil and Silane. This is a contact killer. The silane makes each molecule of cedar 8 times more potent. The cedar must contact the bug or larvae to kill it. This will happen within 40 seconds of the smallest drop. I bought this product online at Ohio Cedar Oil and tested it myself.

Thank you.

-I would like to add that while Cedar Oil may be a contact killer, it will not be sufficient to rid a residence of bed bugs. You must use heat or a residual killer. Most bed bugs only come out at night, so if you spray the bugs you find during the day, there are probably hundreds that you didn't get. You will need a PCO to coat your bed, mattress, other furniture, baseboards, and outlet covers with a residual killer, so any bug that contacts that place later will die.

Contact killers may give you more confidence, but they cannot solve the problem alone.

Maybe if applied directly as a contact spray, but there are better ones. If you have a problem with them best to attack outside. they are ground beetles, so any granular would work.

Will tea tree oil help with bed bugs in a mattress?

Probably not. If you have bed bugs, you need a professional pest control operator to treat your home. Put your mattress and box springs each in a sealed (zippered) cover. Seal the zipper with tape. Launder all clothes, linens, and bed clothes, and keep them in sealed bags. And call that pest control company, and make sure they know how to kill bed bugs (some don't!)

Cleanliness helps prevent bed bugs. However, washing bedding in hot water has as much to do with removing bed bugs as your choice of soap.

What are the oil that kills bed bugs or keep them away?

Most of them live on the bed which you can't treat. There are traps you can use to monitor & interceptors you can buy to keep them off your bed. You can also get a cover (if you've had them before) to protect mattress & boxsprings to keep from having to discard them if worse comes to worse.
