   Hi - we recently were exposed to bedbugs, and in checking my daughter's bed for signs they came home with us, found these spots - they are medium brown in color. I tried the smear test with a q-tip and saliva - they didn't smear on the fabric, but some came off on the q-tip. To be fair, we haven't done an inspection of this kind before - we got the bed frame second hand about 8 years ago, so these spots could have been made anytime in the last 20 years.

   Thank you!

   They look like fecal spots, but really old (months, at least) and partially washed off....

   Thank you - I'll keep my fingers crossed they are something from the past, and keep checking . . .
