The Hurun Air Stool

This is one deceptive looking piece of furnishing that may eventually have one sit on it. But before that happens, be warned that this is an air purifier and not a stool.

The Hurun Air stool camouflages itself like furniture but is actually an air humidifier that includes a 4-liter water tank. It also comes with four humidifying filters, six-step filter process and the ability to filter out odor, fine dust, yellow dust, viruses, allergies, and VOCs.

The Humun Air Stool was meant for big rooms where it will be tasked to humidify the area. So if you eventually decide to have one of these, remember not to sit on it.

Bed bugs are more serious than we think. Aside from giving us sleepless nights and potential allergies, the proper way to treat them starts on how you find them. And thanks to the Stern Environment Group, a new device may lead us towards properly monitoring the presence and behavior of these cursed bed bugs through their monitoring device, the NighWatch Bed Bug Monitors.

There are several types of bed bug monitors and the prices range widely from $5 to $1,000. Some of the most interesting new products are NightWatch from BioSensory, CDC 3000 by Cimex Science, soon to be released BB Alert Active from MIDMOS, Climbup Insect Interceptor from Susan McKnight Inc., and the Bug Dome for bed bugs by Silvandersson under the name of Silvatronic.

These bed bug monitors actually have a bed bug blood meal lure, and in some case a CO2 source to imitate a human body presence to actively attract bed bugs. These new bed bug tools are proving to be game changers in early identification of a bed bug problem.
