I previously had no pest problems. Then she moved in and started having all these bites on her body and we found out it was bed bugs.

She had to throw out her mattress. She has moved out after a month.
Should I ask her to pay for part of the extermination?

The bugs are not yet in my room across from hers but am afraid they might get there.

I bought some new mattreses for my parents and we’ve always put them out in the sun but a few weeks later we found bed bugs hiding underneath the sides of the mattress eventhough we put the mattress in the sun. My Dad even had to get rid of his mattress cause we couldn’t get rid of the bed bugs.

I have just recently discovered I have a room that is home to bed bugs. I found tiny bed bug bites all over my body in various places. I want to get rid of these pests at once, not a hit and miss try. My mom has told me to wash all of my sheets, bedding, and my dog’s bedding. and to also vaccuum the entire room. Will this help? ive been informed that JUST washing the sheets and mattress (which she didnt suggest) isnt enough. Please help me!

I have been waking up with bites on my body for the past three days. I even noticed that i was getting bit at work. Today, I found two bed bugs (or so I think they are) on my body. When I went to strip my bedsheets to check my mattress….I did not find any bed bugs on my sheet or mattress (I checked in all the crevices, on the floor and along the edges….still nothing.) Does this mean I am safe from them? What should I do now?

Or do I need to call an exterminator. A few days ago I woke up with a random rash looking thing on my stomach, then again a couple days after that. My friends thought it was bed bugs so I decided to take my sheets off and check my mattress and sheets. I havent found a live bug, but after research I do think I have seen the shells of the bugs. Any suggestions?
