    I’m wondering what all the whitish, foamy looking stuff in this picture. (I’m not talking about the white shine/glare form the picture, near the top–but I’m referring to the “stuff” seen mostly on the bottom right-hand side of the picture all around the bed bug seen there.

    Is it old, crushed egg casings? If not, then what is it?

    Hi Willow!

    Now you made me click on the large size of this awful picture! Could it be someone sprayed these lovely bugs with a contact killer and that is the residue? The other eggs don’t have stuff like that around them.

    could be, I never would have thought of that.
    thanks Nomo!
