I just recently got a bad matress and my appartment became infested with these icky bed bugs. I have already bagged and cleaned most of my stuff and chucked everything out that was material that they could live on like my sofa, beds, curtains ect…. and I have requested that someone come in and fume my apartment… but my questions is how long will it take before there gone or better yet when will I be able to have the freedom to invest into some furniture?

Hi I live in Tempe, Arizona In an apartment called Wilshire Pines (do not move there) and have been living here for 6 months.

And i would like to know who is held liable if bed bugs infest an apartment? Is it the Landlord/apartment manager or the People who reside in the apartment?

Please answer I really would appreciate it, thanks!
And also I’ve been getting these bed bugs when i was heading into my 5th month.
I moved in 6 months ago. We brought our beds, furniture etc. practically everything. Then suddenly on the 5 month of our lease, bed bugs started appearing on our beds and clothes.

I just moved into a new apartment about 2 months ago and have found bed bugs in there. I haven’t been in any hotels, or have had many people over, and my furniture is new so I know the bugs came from the apartment. Is it the apartments responsibly to get rid of them? I learned I am allergenic to the saliva of the bugs and break out in hives, so I cannot even stay there while the bugs are there, would they also need to take $$ off my monthly rent or put me in a hotel. Thanks.

I have bed bugs. I get multiple bites on my hands almost every night.

I have enclosed the boxspring with a latex cover, but the bites continue. I’ve sprayed with Home Depot insecticide, which says on the bottle that it kills bedbugs. I’ve sprayed every inch of my bedroom with this junk, multiple MULTIPLE times, including spraying the mattress. I’ve also done the routine of washing all bedding in hot water (I do it just about weekly).

I’ve spent so much money on this, it’s ridiculous, from replacing pillows to paying exterminators to buying mattress enclosures. Do I really have to just accept that insects dine on my blood nightly and smear it on my sheets as they depart? Do I have to move and trash all furniture and belongings? Should I go to bed in a beekeeper’s suit? What’s a guy to do?

There’s a new apartment we want to get. The previous owners left about 2 weeks ago because the bed bugs gave them rashes. There is no furniture left, the apartment is now completely empty, save the fridge and stove. The landlord’s wife cleaned it out, repainted it, if that makes a difference. It’s been empty for about 2 weeks. The previous owner had professionals try to exterminate them, twice, and it didn’t make a difference. Do bed bugs leave if they have no food or humans to feed on? Will there be any bed bugs left, is it safe to move into that apartment? All answers greatly appreciated.
By the way there’s no carpet, it’s all wood flooring.
