    So far so good.

    I first showed bites at some point in January, realizing what they were in March. First treatment was April 1st. The vinyl cover on the split boxspring ripped a week and a half later, 5 new bites, drug it out myself from the second floor the next night and watched the garbage men throw it in the back of the truck the following morning.

    Weeks of laundry, took a second job, neglected my dog, my friends and my family, more laundry, lots of huge plastic bags with air lock tops, no mopping. etc. etc. etc. It's certainly all detailed out in the FAQs, including some "DO NOT DO's" I certainly was guilty of doing due to ignorance.

    Mattress is still wrapped.
    No bites since, no sign since.
    I have a new roommate now, lots of his 'stuff', kind of worried... We've had talks about bb's. We'll see.

    I worked with my local Terminix.

    Wow. I have no idea how you managed to do all the work with two jobs. Anyway, Congratulations! and wishing you continued success. (Am sending a metaphorical (or just imaginary?) bottle of chilled champagne to your address.)

    Hey LaurenEliz, I'm just south of you in Union and my experience has been very similar. Managed to have great success for over a month, only to have the boxspring encasement rip last week and not realize it til I was getting bitten. Congratulations and continued good luck!
