Hi guys,
I understand NYC is pretty much infested with bed bugs and there are even lawsuits filed against hotels infested with those bugs.
I wouldn’t if I could, but I HAVE TO travel to NY for a business and need a hotel in Queens that is bed bugs free!
I understand this kind of infestation can happen [...]

I am curious what responsiblities the landlord has when it comes to these little pests. Recently, I started finding itchy bug bites in random places on my body. After some research, we figured they were probably bed bug bites. Now, we have never seen ANY evidence of bugs in our own apartment, but since that’s [...]

I found tiny little bugs about 0.5-1mm size. At first, I thought these are bed bugs but it seems like they are too small to be bed bugs. I found them mostly on my bed, but I found a few on the carpet and on the window frame as well. I have vacuum, wash all [...]

I currently reside at a dorm house (among others around me) which my host Uni provides here in Germany. I will soon be leaving the country in a month’s time. Ever since October 2009 (my first month here) I had noticed problems with my mattress. It is dark blue therefore one can not easily notice [...]

I noticed one evening there was like 2 little bugs on our covers and they looked like fleas but didn’t jump. I went ahead and got tea tree oil and sprayed the inner lining of my mattress (even though i didn’t see any signs of bed bugs in the cracks) and then bought the [...]

So I had my old mattress thrown out because of beg bugs, along with my white vinyl covered wood frame because of bed bugs. I heard recently there has been a huge outbreak of them. Once I threw out my stuff vacuumed and took everything out of the room. Now about a month later I [...]

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 [...]

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.
