We moved into a new rented place a week and a half ago. After the first night we woke up covered in bites which we now know are from bed bugs…. Since then we have been sleeping on the couch but we are still getting bitten lots. We informed the landlord, who came [...]
I was living in an apartment complex that had bed bugs and I was unaware of it. The infestation started in the apartment below us I was told. That apartment got sprayed for bugs and then they came up to my apartment. I was never told of the infestation or to keep an eye out [...]
We’ve only been here a month…at first we didn’t know what it was so that accounts for at least 2 weeks worth of bites because we’ve NEVER had them before moving here. I realized very quickly we needed to cover up at night and use plastic or hypo allergenic mattress cover but that just left [...]

I’ve noticed with people taking photos of their kids, dogs, etc. that I see a lot of people sleeping on bare mattresses. I happen to find it terribly gross, especially with small children present, and if there are "stains" on the mattress itself. Maybe it’s just me, but it’s disgusting. You can’t clean a mattress [...]
Do the mattress covers that say they protect against dust mites protect against bed bugs also?
For those who do not know dust mites and bed bugs are different insects.
Thanks guys I will look into both of your suggestions.

I recently had bed bugs. I had 2 exterminators come out. Both told me they were in my box spring. I had the whole house exterminated as a precaution.

Ive searched his crib, replaced all bedding, cleaned everything like crazy, and something is STILL biting him…They are raised bites..very red, and the most recent one and two holes (like fang marks). Ive never seen a bug in this [...]
So I sleep on a mattress in the living room and it bugs me because it doesn’t look like a nice living room. I’m thinking of putting the bed against a wall and have a japanese room divider kind of thing cover that portion. What do you think? I need opinions or suggestions. Even greater, [...]
I had been getting terrible itchy welts for a while before I spotted a bug and realized that what I had were bedbugs.

We just moved from our apartment. It was a rundown place with carpets and old wood.

In the beginning of 2008, I started feeling bugs crawling on my skin, but of course, there’s nothing ever there. I feel it everywhere, on my legs, in my hair, behind my ears, on my neck, EVERYWHERE, except for in the pubic area (Thank God!), and it causes me to itch a lot. I can’t [...]
