I have been wondering since last June if I had them or not. Twice I had bites on my legs and they fit the pattern, lines etc. I had many of them...like 40 or more. I had them the middle of June and again the middle of July.
In June I tore up the carpet, took the bed apart, painted the room, etc.
I moved back into the room after the re-do and got the bites again in mid July. I called a PCO and we are out in the boonies here so not sure how much they know about the problem.
He couldn't find any trace but I talked him into treating anyway. I have the encasements on all the beds since July.
The first part of August I noticed 5 or 6 blood droplets on the sheet. We then tried to treat ourselves with bedlam and other spray. Got along fine until the first part of September when I noticed a couple blood spots on the pillow. Self-treated again and got along ok until last week when I noticed a small blood spot again on the pillow.
I have had everything out of the closet, drawers etc. I have had the climb up monitors on the bed for at least six weeks now and have found nothing. Also have never found a bug either dead or alive. I thought I found an egg once and have saved it but I am not sure.
I have called a PCO again last week to say I want the place sprayed again but he hasn't showed up and frankly, around this area of the country the choices for PCOs are not good. They just don't have experience in dealing with this.
I have spent many hours on this site and it has been so helpful in so many ways.
I would like to hear any input that anyone has that can help me figure this out.
I haven't slept a full night in months. I do a check with a flashlight at least twice a night. I also have moved downstairs to the sofa many nights.
Thanks fot any help you can give. And thank you for this forum.
