I just moved in 5 days ago but I am very allergic to insect bites and stings so when they bit me the first time...I noticed. I have been staying here the past 3 days and have been bitten every night thereafter. I did not have this problem prior to moving in here so I am aware that these pests were left behind from the previous renter...thank you very much. My son seems to have my type of allergies, based on how he reacts to mosquito bites, and I have not seen any bites on him...thank God! I will be contacting my landlord on Monday to notify him of this issue. I hope I can keep my mattress because I spent a mint on it and cannot afford a new one. I'm hoping because it's a new problem I will be able to. We'll see. Just thought I'd share my troubles as well. The bites are in paths and look like mosquito bites, and itch ferociously. I have found that using cotton to swab vinegar on the bites relieves the itching and the bugs don't like to feed in those areas (they were feeding horribly on my ankles then they fed on my wrist and shoulder after I used the vinegar)....maybe I should just bathe in it...lol. I understand the frustration all of you are going through and hope your bedbug problems get eradicated as well as my own, good luck to all of you ;-) I have bedbugs as well.

They love wood, don't like painted surfaces. Plastic sheets are a tremendous help. Wiping the sores with alcohol is a big help. Putting boric acid on the bed rails and around the sides of your walls/floors can help. They can be anywhere, but most likely in a newly acquired chair, or dresser, especially if you drag them home from the curb or second hand store. And, most of all, you may not have bed bugs at all. Try combing your hair with boiling water and a lice comb and tapping the water out each time you go through your hair. Vacuum, vacuum, vacuum. Chairs, floors, bed. I even patted down my mattress with duct tape. I don't know what I had/have, but it is subsiding. Just keep at it, and when all else fails, call in the exterminator. gw.

Do we need to clean there toys a special way after finding the bed bugs...and money is tight and we do not have the money for an exterminator so what the best alternative to get rid of these nasty bugs.

The first two times I noticed them in the early evening. This morning I woke up with 3 bites in a row on my ankle. My husband does not have any. I stripped by bed and have found nothing. The bites are small and red. Itchy at first but subsides after an hour or so. Now I cannot even see them. What are the chances I have bed bugs and if they are, what can I do if I can't find them.
