    Hey,
    Today i was at home and i saw a bed bug on my neck. I quickly killed it but im not sure if i have bed bugs. My son came back from camp the other day and i washed all his clothing and luggage and his sleeping bag. He also complained of bites on his back that looked like bed bug bites. I checked all my matresses in the house and i didnt see any signs of bed bugs but i dont know if i have them. I dont have any pictures. Please help.

    He don't.. good thing you washed all the baggage and clothes but will not promise that will help, but it will help some iif that is a bed bug. Now what you need to do is clean and strip all frabic from your home everythingggggggggggggggggggg and take it and wash it and before bringing it back into your apartment house and also vacuum and spray spray your car like crazy too.. get your house cleaned and I mean leave nothing untuned. Get all the alcohal you can get and spray without dilution and spray every day for about 4 weeks. Get some double sided tape and put around your post of your bed and then wrap the mattress and bos int hem too . I would go get bed incasements too and put on all your beds. Don't forget about rugs and doorways your entrance it is like taking a white glove treatment. It only takes one bug to create 5 eggs times that by 5 bugs and you got a crap losad of bugs which is harder to get rid of cause they lay eggs too. Spray spray and vacuum vacuum like crazy.. Make sure you take your vac out door and empty it carefully into a bag and double bag it and out in in a dumpster or burn it. We all have to stop the spread of this bug!!!!!!!!!!!! If yoususpect your son's clothing is infested also put them into a bad double it and take it to the laundray mat and was the heck out of it and dry for a long time.

    It takes precautions like t his to stop this spread. we are bigger and can be batter so lets kill the bed bugs once and for all I also heard tea tree iol not diluted is helpful in spraying.. The bottome line is this.. you have to burn them or smother them cause they can live up to 18 months or longer with out feeding.. So lets smother, kill this thing that is causeing all of us nervous break downs.
