The Passive has been developed to attract bed bugs that have recently fed or that are inactive. When it is placed near potential feeding sites, any bed bugs who have recently fed will find its large number of small crevices very tempting as a harborage. The unit's white border clearly shows the fecal staining of bed bug activity if the insects are present, so only a quick visual inspection of the unit is required to spot any signs of bed bugs. Review: Not sure how to rate this - I'm not entirely sure how to rate this device, since so far I'm not detecting any evidence of bed bugs in my house. I'll give it the benefit of the doubt and assume that it is working correctly and I'm just bed bug free. I bought this based on the recommendation of several forum users at bedbugger.com. David Cain, the inventor, is very active on the site and is an incredibly helpful when it comes to the general discussion and identification of bed bugs. He also fully discloses his financial interests in the product whenever it comes up. The idea behind the BB Alert is that it provides an ideal harborage for bed bugs, while at the same time, encourages them to defecate on the white outer rim. It's not a trap and doesn't kill them -- It just allows the user to know for sure if he has bed bugs. For people who think they might have them but can't find any physical evidence, the detector can provide considerable mental relief (I'm going through this now). For people who know they have bed bugs, there's no reason to buy this, since it isn't a trap and isn't intended to kill them. The construction is basically a thin layer of corrugated cardboard, with a plastic shell, that sits on a white layer of fabric tape. Paying $14 does seem a little steep but they do go for $20 elsewhere. I'm sure there's more to it and a lot of thought went into the design, that's just my opinion as a user. I'm going off the assumption that I'm bed bug free and the device is confirming this. Paying that much for the reassurance seems pretty reasonable, especially when the inventor provides so much help over at bedbugger.com. If it turns out my house is infested the device still doesn't show anything, I'll update this review. Review: I am not sure if this is working. I ... - I am not sure if this is working.

I ... *by V***N on November 3, 2016* I am not sure if this is working. I have had a few more bed bug bites and no sign of bed bugs on the monitor. ### ⭐⭐⭐ I prefer to make my own *by D***E on October 29, 2016* I make my own for under $5.00 (see attached photo). Below were various experiments I had done with things around the house. I tried a light switch cover (square junction box covers work too) that I decided to scuff up a little with sand paper to allow bed bugs to easily climb it. I glued corrugated cardboard that I cut off from a box I had to the top of the light switch plate and then glued a paper coaster on top of it (cut to size). I placed a double sided adhesive on the bottom of it and it worked just fine. I found bed bugs quite content in the little home I made. Another way I made the product was by using a white coaster as the base. I glued corrugated cardboard to the top and in dead center of the white coaster. I purchased mini black dishes 2.5" x 2.5" as a roof to go on top of the cardboard because bed bugs do seem interested in dark vertical objects. The roof is flush with the cardboard, so it is no higher than 1/8 of an inch. It almost looks like a home and I have caught activity in them at various homes I service. Double sided adhesive on the bottom. Another one I have made was by using a mini magnet art board (2.5" x 2.5"). I wanted it small because it was made to stick to metal bed frames where adhesive was not the best choice. I had it placed under and along side the metal bed frame. I also made one from a large foam mounting tab (double sided adhesive) but it was hard to get off the bed because it stuck on really good. These do work well as I got the idea when putting a foam wall plate outlet installation gasket in. I left the middle insert in and glued corrugated cardboard to the top of it. Not trying to take anything away from this product but $36.00 is way too high for my liking. They say 3 years went into this and their passive detector is patented and I say wonderful as it is a brilliant but simple design, but I can make the product in less than 10 minutes for under $5.00. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ro/products/12037371-passive-detector](https://www.desertcart.ro/products/12037371-passive-detector) --- *Product available on Desertcart Romania* *Store origin: RO* *Last updated: 2026-06-15*
