I had them in my bed when I was a teenager. The way I killed them was I got my iron and just ironed the whole mattress. I also pressed the steam button all over the bed and made sure the steam went into every little crevice in the bed. This method actually worked and they never bothered me again! :)

Okay here’s the fix. Clean up any clutter in your house Don’t take anything outside to sit it will just spread the bedbugs to neighbors and keep them coming back to you Wash all of your clothes, covers, and curtains and dry them with the hottest setting for 45 minutes. When they’re done bag them up in a trash bag and seal it with a rubber band or better yet get some air tight bags to seal your stuff in. Keep one of the bags for clothes you will be using. Buy bed bug spray that kills them on contact. Spray your bed and any other place like under cushions of couches and the bottom of your bed and box spring. Bag up your dishes and utensils and food in the cabinets. Open all of the cabinets and doors in your home Buy bed bug bombs and put them all through your house. Use as directed you’ll usually have to leave for several hours Buy diatomaceous earth and put it around the base of your walls and in backs and in shoes and everywhere that you couldn’t spray. Put it under your bed and in between your box spring and bed. Make sure it’s food grade diatomaceous earth Put your pillow cases and beds in a covering that is bed bug proof. Keep everything that’s bagged, bagged, and repeat the process after two weeks (with the exclusion of washing your clothes since they are already protected in an air tight bag I think you can buy a steamer from Lowe’s for $45 to apply heat to places like your bed. To kill them. You should do all of these steps. Don’t invite anyone over during this time. Don’t give anything of yours to anyone. You should probably put diatomaceous earth in your car as well

Bed bugs are bad. But incompetent landlords are worse. *edit* For those of you saying it isn't the landlord's problem: It is, by law, their problem. I took it to court and I won. My complaint is with the fact that I actually had to take it to court. (Which was a long drawn out process) If you're charging some $1200 a month for rent it's expected you can save some money for an emergency. If not, you're just a slumlord looking to make a quick easy buck.

Those things have anything covered and they don't discriminate they accumulate clean, new, nasty or old. Wet or dry. Only thing they can't stand is heat, powered products. Alcohol full blast. Plastic, especially the covering things up with it and the sound. They do not like greasy things. Otherwise they show up anywhere in any nook or crany. The thing is they like to be in the dark and nest under warm humans. Or in carpets the most after they suck your blood. Why are they called BUGS? When they are not. Grandma did say don't let the bedbugs bite because people had micro bugs and boweevels. Those were real bugs like fleas that just accumulated and bite. But Dust mites and ( Bedbugs) are not Bugs they are Parasites. They only exist due to the way they feed off your blood or skin flakes. They are mights. Now real bugs like boweevels and micro bugs and. roaches and fleas. You use pesticide and bug spray. The parasites need that special stuff. Plus it has nothing to do with how dirty you are it just depends on how well they can nest and accumulate. Alcohol 91% usually dry them out. Baking soda and vacuum cleaning. Plastic smuthers them. Dryer sheets it's something about those they just don't like them. With anything you do if they are on you then you will see the bites. They look like pimples and they itch. Which means they are getting your blood. They appear clear when they are born and they only appear to look like bugs after they have sucked your blood and then they go off and hide. Usually they are worst than mice because it you are in bed or sitting on furture and you happen to see one? Most likely behind your unprotected pillow or. bed clothes. Or clothes that you wear and it's doesn't matter how clean you are. These things only purpose is to suck your blood. The worst thing is you could sit somewhere over somebody's house or at a vehicle, theater, hotel. School church any place that has material they can cling to from tiny floor cracks to rugs especially base boards, people own places now and have that problem with them being invested in the walls. Look like brown tears rolling down the wall. This would be places invaded that were not treated and they be ready with somebody elses blood those are the darker ones. They say you can't smash them because they mutante if you do. You can find them in just about any crack or any place in doors or out like that and. somebody has them and you don't, if it's on the furniture or place. Like back in the 1990's they never exist. Nobody ever heard of these things. So lots of people were shocked to get them. They were said to have been brought over from somewhere out of America and people would bring them to hotels and motels and they would accumulate behind base boards and the works. People don't even realize they are being bitten. Still it use to get so terrible because people didn't know how to get rid of them. All of a sudden they started to appear everywhere. It was like they were created in a science lab in secret to bite be attractive to human blood like mosquitos when at first they didn't do that they were known to attack farm animals and stuff like that. One day they took a flock. Train looads of birds and and let them lose because birds carry them too so watchout for that. Yes infact the best way to find them is to get a FLASH LIGHT and do a very close inspection this is how small they are tiny tiny tiny untill they bite you. So check anything tith that light that you occupy. Beds clothed shoes hair. Esx. When you are around. Other people Tell people to check themselves, they could sit on your stuff and poooow you could get them just from on being on them. So before they walk in your house and be careful where you lean or sit. Like on seats or elevators and stuff like that. If you find yourself in contact with them. The most embarrassing thing yo do is pretend they are not there because that won't make them disappear. The best thing is as soon as you see any. It's Miller time!! Go to war and collect all the heat plastic Alcohol and powder but powder can be too messy and makr your house look dusty. Remember these are parasites not BUGS. I call them Beddy Byes. They are creepy but the creepiest tthing to do is ignore them. Good luck.

One of our local shelters has an interesting way of preventing bedbug re-infestation: a heat room. It is a small room constantly kept at a temperature hot enough to kill bedbugs (and most other creepy crawlies). ANYTHING coming into the building for the first time goes into the heat room for 24 hours. New residents give up their personal belongings for a day, but when they get them back, they are guaranteed bedbug-free.

Upper middle class neighborhood. Spotless clean house that my friends refer to as the HGTV house. We got them from a relative that stayed over for a holiday, he had stayed at a hotel the night before and picked them up. Because we run a tight ship, we caught it early on, but still spent $6000 in treatment, tossed thousands more in goods straight in the trash. It's been well over a year, and so far so good. My wife has severe PTSD about it and stills gets up in the middle of the night and searches. It can happen to anyone.

I was bitten by bedbugs at a bed and breakfast, and those fuckers are NOT cool.. They are pretty fast for their size, their only active a few minutes at night, it seems like they know when you sleep, and you`ll have to freeze all your clothes and fabrics, -20C or colder, then wash them at 50C or more. And some eggs might still be ok, and the little bastards can live for month without feeding. Their bites are like 5 mosquito bites in the same place and if you scratch it it bleeds and leaves a sore. Got bedbugs? NUKE YOUR HOUSE!

Fun fact. I did landscaping and gardening for a while, and we use this fungus to kill aphids, called Beaura Bassiana (I don’t know how to spell it exactly) and it would infect and kill aphids. Well, I had a bed bug problem a few months ago and did some research, turns out it can be used to kill bed bugs. So, one night I captured about 3-4 bed bugs and I created a small mixture of the fungus in a jar and exposed the bugs to them, then I let the bugs back into my room. 3 weeks later and not a single bite. Just a little advice, to anyone having problems (The spores germinate in the bugs as quick as 24 hours, but it can take a while to rid an infestation but I’ve helped my friends out too and the spores have never failed me)

Patrick Matheson I had to use DE when what I thought was just a bad case of fleas for my two dogs turned into an outright infestation. Thankfully, it was mainly contained to my room, where they slept, but it was a harsh battle. I had to pull everything out of the closet and sprinkle powder there too (I'm grateful I kept most of my things in sealed plastic totes). The house was old and had wooden floors that weren't varnished it anything so there were more cracks for them to hide in. I covered the entire floor for up to a week at a time and would vacuum at the end of the week and repeat the process. At night, I'd place a lamp on the floor with a shallow dish of soapy water (The soap helped to ensure they couldn't jump back out and the fleas were attracted to the light; I'm saying that more for anyone else's benefit since you already seem pretty knowledgeable about these pests, lol). That worked quite well and I'd wake up with a hundred or so fleas in the water. However...we realized we weren't able to keep the puppies and gave them to our shelter, sadly, but it allowed us to focus more on the cleanup. In the end, I'm not sure if it worked completely. We moved about two months into the process. I was terrified they'd follow us to our new home but surprisingly, they didn't. We didn't clean the DE off the floor when we left and this was during the winter time. They don't like the cold and can only go a few weeks without food, I think. Considering in my experience, many places aren't immediately cleaned by the landlord, the place should be free of pests for the next person that lives there. The DE can easily be vacuumed and mopped up. Anywho, I too was wondering why he hadn't mentioned using this stuff in the video.

Here's some advice: look at your bed, more specifically your bedframe. If it's made of wood, they seem to prefer that, and hang out mostly in the cracks and crevices of the wood. You'll see blackish little spots, almost like black paint splatter/spotting. That's their feces. If you have a metal/black bedframe, it will be very difficult to even see that, so look at any wall outlets near the bed or even in the corners of the wall and ceiling.. More than likely you'll never see them, unless the infestation is really bad or you agitate their hiding spots with pesticides or moving stuff around.. They typically don't live on the mattress and THEY DON'T attach themselves to you. They will, however, hide in clothes, dressers, mattress seams, pillows, or even shoes if that provides meaningful protection from you during the day.

Sprinkle baking soda everywhere. Do it often. The crystals are actually quite sharp to a bed bug. It's also dehydrating if they come into contact with it and don't get cut. And when I say cut it gets into their exoskeleton joints and jacks em up. Sprinkle the stuff everywhere. Sweep or vacuum and reapply.

@@krissifadwa the absolute best way is to get the room to about 130 - 140° F for about 8 to 12 hours. It’ll kill all hatched and unhatched bugs and your problem will be OVER!!! Bed bugs die over 115°. Keeping the room(s) at 140° for at least 8 hours will ensure it gets hot enough in every crevice and hiding spot they take refuge in killing your infestation. You might be able to rent a heater that can keep and maintain a room that hot. If not… get a steamer (they look like a big tea kettle that blasts out steam) and just steam the hell out of EVERYTHING! Paper spontaneously catches on fire at about 480⁰F. You might want to check what other flammable things that burn or might melt but maintaining a room at 140⁰ isn't terribly dangerous.

There were dozens of babies on the walls of my shower.... i later found out by tracing the fecal trails that they had come into my apartment from my new neighbors, via the space between the wall and the pipe under the sink.... I put 2sided tape on the ceiling walls and floor around the door and I completely eradicated them 2-3 times but they kept appearing in my bathroom... I ended up having to move because the landlord wouldn't do anything to get my neighbor to fix the problem.

This is how to get rid of them without using toxic chemicals or paying a boatload for pest control, Make sure you follow the instructions. You will be glad you did: Vacuum everything (including between mattresses, every day until they are gone, and then once a week after that. Wash clothes and sheets in lavender pine sol. And the thing that will actually get rid of them is to use food grade diatomacious earth (DE) - it is sold in 15 pound bags at Tractor Supply for about 15 bucks - get food grade, which, by the way, do *not* eat - and a wall-duster (it is like a small tool that blows the DE in a fine powder, costs about 15 bucks also. If you just chunk it around, the bugs walk around it, and it won't kill them, so you sprinkle it in a fine dust using the duster tool). Instructions below. If you have pets, I don't know what breathing it in will do to them, but, when I have used it, I dust it around before I am ready to leave the house for a few hours, and I stay away so it can settle. I have not had any breathing issues with this, but if anyone in the house has asthma or COPD or anything like that, I would only do it when they are gone for the whole day, and maybe not even then because I don't know how it might affect them. It basically makes the whole house a bit dusty for a few hours. Anyway, you take off your electric plates (off the walls and light switch plates) and use the duster to blow it into the walls, and also between your mattresses, under the bed, and around all the edges of all the walls in the entire house. Re-dust just like this once a week for a few weeks, then once a month, even after you don't see any more bugs. It also kills roaches and spiders. If it gets in a clump on the carpet, do *not* rub it in or swipe it up, you will make a stain - just vacuum it up.

I know it seems like bed bugs aren't that harmful, but let me tell you a story. A long time ago when I was around 5 or 6, me and my family went to stay at a shabby hotel for some reason or another, and me and my sister had a separate room. Our mom tucked us into bed, we left the lights on bc we were small and scared of the dark, and we started to go off to sleep. All was well. Until the sheets started moving. I opened my eyes and there were millions, MILLIONS of bugs crawling all over us, the bedsheets, the walls, the floors, literally everywhere. I don't think I screamed that much in my life. We were both standing on top of the dressers on the other side of the room by the time our mom and grandparents burst in. It was a nightmare. Pretty sure my sister's legs were bitten all the way up to her thighs. TRUST ME. You want to get rid of bed bugs.

+Daracex That's a pretty selfish outlook. These little bastards can hide in your clothes meaning you end up carrying them to another persons house and they get infested. Even inf you don't, most people will react to bed bugs, some people are even allergic to their bites, I'm talking full blown anaphylaxis in their sleep. The bigger the infestation the bigger the risk of you spreading them around, the longer you leave them the more they breed and spread through your home; every crack, nook, and cranny. If you live in a rental property like an apartment, kiss your deposit good bye, maybe even pay some penalties, because you failed to report them. If you live in a house and are ever looking to sell, enjoy spending thousands of dollars on extermination because no one is going to buy until they're gone. So if you do notice them do something about it, and do so early.

FIVE YEARS AGO and I still have PTSD. Not exaggerating. My info said only about 10% of the population is immune to their bites. I am not part of that 10%. For 6 months I thought I was allergic to the bed or the detergent or the blanket or the stuffing or even my bf. My bf and his mom said it was all In my head and hives are a mental induced reaction so I was "crazy". I have no problem with blood or guts. I avoid drama if possible. I rarely cry. But after this experience, I freak when I see fuzz cuz it might be one. I cried this summer when I first saw a tick because I thought it might be one and it was on me. If I get a mosquito bite, I can't sleep and check myself daily for three weeks to be sure it wasn't a bed bug. If I have a hive I frantically try to prove to myself what the allergen was so I can tell myself it wasn't one of them. The thing was on my bed and came RUNNING AT ME a hell of a lot faster than you reported they can move! You also didn't mention that their eggs are about the same size and appearance of common table salt. I went over everything in my home with baby wipes and alcohol spray, heat AND diatomaceous earth-which I applied using a 1/2" paintbrush to every nook,cranny, groove and crack those flat little f@ckers hide in as well as along all of the baseboards where rugs meet walls. I did that in addition to the exterminator and the bug-proof bed protectors. I had not only every single inch of everything I own to clean to ensure they never returned, but also four kids and all their toys and my lazy bf's stuff too. Every spine of my 500+ library of books had to be inspected and shot with alcohol and covers wiped. Every video case had to be wiped down inside and outside. Anything electric had to be sprayed and bagged. Every stitch of clothing for a family of six, including anything packed away, had to be washed and dried and bagged to prevent reinfestation. Paper products had to be inspected because they hide there. I threw out about 5 grand worth of electronics because they had casings in there and I couldn't get them apart enough to get them clean enough to ensure they were disinfected. The list is so ridiculous. To this day, the clothes in my bureaus are still in plastic bags "just in case". I cried when I got home from my job at a hotel because they reportedly had them there, not where I was, just there in the same building. I sprayed myself with alcohol, including bottom of my shoes, to make sure I didn't bring any home with me. I am so thankful I no longer work there, it is truly a relief mentally. My bf's uncle moved 6 states away because he had gotten them (10 years earlier and before we met) and couldn't get them out of his house even after numerous treatments. This is not a normal bug. These things are hell on earth. I thought the things I read on line were written by overly dramatic super sensitive people until it happened to me. Like an extreme germs phobic person would, I dread all the things I used to love: flea markets, movie theaters, going anywhere-even to other people's homes, because these bugs could be anywhere and that's how people usually get them, from these places.

A M Brown Oh my god same. People will never understand what it's like to go through this until they go through it. They act like you're just crazy. It definitely changed me... in the worst way possible. People get annoyed with how obsessed I was talking about bed bugs. They don't get how it was waking up to millions of terrible red huge bites and blood stains In the middle of the night. I had to throw 16 full bags away of perfectly good things because I simply didn't have the time nor the energy to search and clean everything before my spray. For me as well trying to go to the places I used to love I don't anymore. Haven't seen a movie in months . Simply because I don't trust anything anymore... People are careless and don't care about spreading them which makes me mad. It changed my life for the worst. I completely understand .

It’s been two years since I got them from a neighbor next door at my first apartment I got with my husband. I found one on my foot when I was watching my new born daughter sleep on the bed. It was horrible I ended up with horrible postpartum depression and quit my job. I ended my lease and left everything we had in our room. Her baby clothes, bags, shoes, dresser, bed, and electronics. We had to sleep in the living room for two weeks and it was hell. Finally my mom stepped in and told us to move in with her. All our other things were sprayed and steamed by a exterminator and put into storage. I haven’t been able to move out my moms house for fear of going through that experience again. I never want anymore children because my first experience was horrible always checking myself and the room with a flashlight. Instead of enjoying my baby when she was tiny. They ruined my life. I also only go to drive in theaters because of fear.

A couple of years ago I had a run in with bed bugs... it was terrible. My boyfriend at the time had a daughter and she had one of her friends over for a sleep over. Her friend brought over her pillow and blankets and spent the weekend with us and as she was gathering her things at the end of the weekend she nonchalantly said that her family had bed bugs. I didn't pay much attention to it at the time and chalked it up to "things kids say", but after about two weeks I started getting these strange welts all over my arms and legs and waking up feeling things crawling on me. My boyfriend thought I was losing it until one night I couldn't take it anymore and started ripping the sheets off the bed and pulling the mattress off the frame like a mad person... Low and behold I found the little monsters wedged in the seams of our sheets, pillowcases, mattress, and the wood bed frame. We tried everything to get rid of them but to no avail, finally out of desperation I bought this stuff call Vets Plus Flea and Tick spray made out of peppermint and clove oil after talking with my father and he had told me about an old timey trick of using peppermint oil to get rid of bed bugs. The Vets Plus did the trick. After about 2 weeks of spraying everything down every 2 days we eradicated them from our home.

I had a bad bed bug infestation a few years ago, any time we sat on our couch, 10 minutes later, they would come out and bite the shit out of our legs. After a little online researching, I found out that rubbing alcohol kills bed bugs. So I went to the store, bought 6 bottles of rubbing alcohol and spread that shit all over the living room. Few hours later and all the bed bugs died. We even kept the couch up until a few days ago because it's falling apart.

We've had good results killing bed bugs using heat. Fire Departments are extremely susceptible to getting bed bugs. We are in a lot of different houses and are busy with other things besides making sure bed bugs don't hitch a ride on us or our gear. And then we go back to the station and, at night, back to bed. We use radiant heater to bring the temperature up to 130 degrees F for a few hours in a sealed up room and the radiant heat warms the " things " in the room to 120 degrees or so, killing the infestation. We have to seal cracks and otherwise prepare the room but it works well. We can use this on our trucks and gear as well ( after all it is designed to be hot ).

A few tips: 1) They're small, about the side of an apple seed, but you can find them if you have them. 2) They're easier to get rid of in a house rather than a multifamily home/apartment. 3) Heat treatment is often the most expensive and doesn't have a residual effect. 4) The larger companies are often the most expensive by a lot (i.e. when he said "thousands"), call a local family owned professional, they're a fraction of the cost and do great work (check their reviews of course). 5) You *can* treat your own home with professional grade products if you don't want to hire an exterminator by purchasing products online... however, please read the label on how much to apply and on where you can apply the product. In my experience, the products you get at hardware stores often times make it worse because it just pushes many of the bedbugs into the walls.

This has been the most entertaining video about bedbugs. I haven’t seen them in person yet, but my dermatologist said that she suspects my bites to be bedbug bites. After hearing that yesterday. I couldn’t sleep well at all. And when I started to fall asleep I woke up looking to see if I can catch the blood suckers. I’m hoping she was wrong. I have tore up my whole house literally cleaning everything twice. I feel like a leper, how do I visit family without being afraid I’m gonna give it to them. I have a child and baby birds. I’d rather be diagnosed with a disease (a minor disease) that I fight myself, that won’t affect my family. I’m hoping beyond hope she was wrong. But looking for ways to identify and hopefully stop them before it becomes a major problem.

I still don't understand why in most stories about Bed Bugs , no mention is made that Diatomaceous Earth kills them. It is available in the Home Depot Garden Department. It is non toxic to humans. All you have to do is to place it around the feet of your bed and take a new paintbrush and wipe it over the bedframe. In 2 weeks all bed bugs are gone. It sells in a giant bag for about $8. You can put it around all the baseboards in your house or apartment. The only down side is it requires a shop vac to clean it up as the fine powder blocks the filter system of a regular vacum . There is no need to pay an exterminator $1,000's.

Bed bugs are the worst pest. I lived with them for about two years at my parents house. I had always heard the "don't let the bed bugs bite" thing and never really acknowledged them as being a real thing. I remember waking up with mosquito-like bites each night confused about what was going on. Then I started wondering if we had fleas or if I had an allergy to something. Then I discovered one of the bugs and searched the internet and discovered what was going on. I was sorta oblivious to the infestation because I mainly was in my own room most of the time. Then one day I ventured into the living room and saw them absolutely fucking everywhere. Behind picture frames, all over every piece of furniture it was a god damn nightmare. I took a bunch of measures to isolate my room from them, but it's hard to stop them all. I did manage to get only bit once or twice a week and when I did I would wake up and immediately search between my mattress and box springs near creases and find a fat ass bug. I'd kill it and my own blood would splatter out of it. I moved out of there almost ten years ago and went to great measures to stop from bringing them with me. I washed and dried every piece of clothing on high heat, inspected every possession thoroughly and didn't bring my bed or any furnishings with me. I still get freaked out if I see any sort of oval brown looking shape. The worst thing is that if you have bedbugs, nobody wants to come to your house and they don't want you to visit their house either. Because they can travel with you in your shoes, clothes, purse or other things depending on how careful you are. After washing and drying my clothes I would put them in trash bags and tie it shut so nothing could enter.

Thanks for sharing. Bed bugs like to travel and are good hitchhikers. They will hide in suitcases, boxes and shoes to be near a food supply. They are elusive, nocturnal creatures. They can hide behind baseboards and in cracks, crevices, and folded areas of beds, bedding and adjacent furniture, especially mattresses and box springs. Bed bugs can also hide in electrical switchplates, picture frames, wallpaper and nearly anywhere inside a home, car, bus, or other shelter.

I was blessed with them by a relative. I googled how to kill bed bugs with essential oils. I immediately pulled up lavender. I had some lavender spray, by Avon. Imagine that. I immediately sprayed. The next day I found dead bugs on the floor on the other side of my bed. I also steamed my mattress around the outside top. Bed bugs lay eggs and they hatch in 3 days. So, it is daily spraying here. Their lungs cannot handle the lavender. It is too strong. I can attest to that. I have also run the sweeper around the top seam of the bed. I also have diamiticulus earth. I haven't opened the bag yet.

No one ever talks about the psychological damage they can do. If you do find you have them, it will be ok. Don’t skimp on treatment, call a professional and make sure they identify and eliminate them entirely. It’s not your fault if you get them, it could happen to literally anyone. And you’re not unclean or disgusting if they infest your home, they could have come from literally anywhere. If you’re dealing with the psychological fallout of an infestation, seek out a counselor to work though it. Speaking from personal experience.

I have mattress covers and got rid of my carpets because of dust mites, so I thought I would be safe from bed bugs. I didn't realise that bed bugs could live in walls and behind light switches. Either I don't have them or I'm not allergic to them and I haven't seen any evidence of the little critters.

Yep they're sneaky. They only come out at night. They hide behind pictures and wall carpeting the type people hang for decoration. Light switches the light bulb sockets the mounting plates for overhead lights. Wall plug plates. Sneaky!!! The whole place has to be heated up to like 160 degrees for a few hours. The exterminators had the perfect set up. Cost my brothers family thousands.

This is how to get rid of them without using toxic chemicals or paying a boatload for pest control, Make sure you follow the instructions. You will be glad you did: Vacuum everything (including between mattresses, every day until they are gone, and then once a week after that. Wash clothes and sheets in lavender pine sol. And the thing that will actually get rid of them is to use food grade diatomacious earth (DE) - it is sold in 15 pound bags at Tractor Supply for about 15 bucks - get food grade, which, by the way, do *not* eat - and a wall-duster (it is like a small tool that blows the DE in a fine powder, costs about 15 bucks also. If you just chunk it around, the bugs walk around it, and it won't kill them, so you sprinkle it in a fine dust using the duster tool). Instructions below. If you have pets, I don't know what breathing it in will do to them, but, when I have used it, I dust it around before I am ready to leave the house for a few hours, and I stay away so it can settle. Wear a mask while dusting your home and inside of the walls, and anytime you use it. I have not had any breathing issues with this, but if anyone in the house has asthma or COPD or anything like that, I would only do it when they are gone for the whole day, and maybe not even then because I don't know how it might affect them. It basically makes the whole house a bit dusty for a few hours. Some people wear gloves when handling it, but I have never had any issues with it (I actually don't wear a mask, but I don't breathe it in, either, so, use common sense). Anyway, you take off your electric plates (off the walls and light switch plates) and use the duster to blow it into the walls, and also between your mattresses, under the bed, and around all the edges of all the walls in the entire house. Re-dust just like this once a week for a few weeks, then once a month, even after you don't see any more bugs. It also kills roaches and spiders. If it gets in a clump on the carpet, do *not* rub it in or swipe it up, you will make a stain - just vacuum it up.

If I was a millionaire I would just burn down my home to get rid of bedbugs but unfortunately my wallet doesn't agree with that. I have been using diatomaceous earth, 91% alcohol, mattress and couch covers, heaters, and even sealed all outlets with duct tape. *Goes to bed. Right before falling asleep feels a bite on my right arm. Whips out phone and turns on screen. Sees adult bedbug full of my blood. Smashes down upon Satan with Kratos' might. Sees bloodstained pillow sheet. Goes to sleep.* What I'm trying to get at is, they are fucking hard to get rid of. I had to pay an exterminator 700 dollars to gas my house. Don't try to get rid of them yourself, get an exterminator to save you the trouble. After the bugs are gone, cover every couch, and mattress with plastic to prevent that shit. Oh also wash EVERY piece of clothing with very hot water or very hot dry clean, they hide in your clothes too.
