   Hi there

   A couple of months ago my friends and I travelled the US for two months. We suspected that we on one or two occasions shared bed with bed bugs. Therefore, when we arrived at our homes in Denmark, we froze all of our belongings at -18 degrees celcius for 3 days and washed the washable items at 30 - 40 dregrees.

   Three weeks back I went on another trip, this time to Malta in Europe. We stayed at the place for 11 days and on one of our last days my dad and brother noticed red bite marks on respectively the chest and butt cheek.
   A week ago I also noticed about 4-5 bite marks on my arm.

   I really did'nt think more of it until I saw some really strange black dots on my sheets. The dots have appeared two places on my sheets and looks like someone has drawn on my sheets with a black/brown marker (one set of dots are black and the other are brown). These dots were made while i was visiting a friend and i saw them upon returning to my room at 3 am (I had been gone from about 7pm that same day.)

   I hope you can help identifying the dots/marks or just help me to decide whether or not i should contact a pest controller.

   Thank you very much in advance.

   - Anders

   I'm looking at them on my phone so the pictures are very small. Some are out of focus but, I think I'm looking at fecal traces in some of those pictures.

   I would recommend you have a pro come in to inspect. Others here with a PC may be able to confirm what I think.

   Good luck!!

   It's a short time for so many faecal spots (and no other BBs signs) in the same place...
