The invention relates to a mixture comprising clothianidin, metofluthrin, and piperonyl butoxide which provides superior insect knockdown and mortality rates, and is especially effective against bed bugs. This mixture of actives may be formulated with adjuvants, such as solvents, anti-caking agents, stabilizers, defoamers, slip agents, humectants, dispersants, wetting agents, thickening agents, emulsifiers, and/or preservatives which increase the activity of the mixture. Mixtures of the present invention have long lasting residual control.
