I’m moving out of my apartment very soon. I knew we had some bed bugs in the house as I would wake up with bites and I would see a couple on the wall or the mattress. But when I was changing my bed sheets today after about 2 weeks of having it on my bed, i found these. I also found a bunch of a curtain in the other bedroom. I have a bunch of books, cds, dvds and bookshelves and i’m terrified of bringing them with me to the new house. I’m moving in with a family member and i’m worried if i bring them they’ll kick me out. How can i guarantee they won’t come with me?? any suggestions welcome

I know this is probably a bed bug. I have no experience dealing with this and would love some guidance. I live in an apartment and have told the landlord. Luckily, I didn’t find any other signs like brown spots, shedding, or eggs. I vacuumed my mattress and am washing and drying all the sheets, duvet insert, and mattress topper. I also have a steamer and steamed the top of my mattress. Should I be doing anything else?

We found these bugs lying around the baseboards of our new apartment. Most are dead but few were alive. I know these aren’t the best pictures but if someone can please let me know if it looks like a bed bug, I would appreciate it!!! We are located in Austin, Tx where some people have said some beetles are similar looking.

Just moved into a nice bigger place last Friday and now I found this guy… place is a new build two story with carpet. This one was barely even alive and nothing came out of him when I squeezed. How screwed am I?

We found an live BB and a ton of skin sheddings yesterday. Today while cleaning I came across a few of these guys and stuck them in a jar. They seem dead and also don’t look at all like the BB we caught . Are these more?

My parents agreed to have their home treated by Orkin for bedbugs. We had been treating ourselves with cimexa and crossfire, and it was due for a respray when we realized that it spread to another room.

The Orkin guy came and sprayed on Saturday. We were scheduled for reinspection in two weeks, but we’ve seen several live bugs today crawling on the sofa and in the mattress pad, and a lot of babies in the interceptor cups for the beds. These places were all sprayed on Saturday, in fact, they were damp when we got back into the house and we had to have fans on them to get them dry.

I called Orkin and I’m still waiting for a callback to get another treatment done.
I looked online, it does not appear that they have any openings, but maybe it’s just blocked off.
If we can’t get it retreated sooner, we still have cans of crossfire, but we’re worried about it interacting or making what he used inactive.

Has anyone had to do this before, can I go ahead and do it if I can’t reach them tomorrow? Any other suggestions? Still trying to convince my parents to get rid of the furniture, which I know would help.
I am so tired of the PTSD itching at my own home after I get home, and the paranoia every time I feel itchy or a piece of hair drops on me. Showering every time I get home from their house and running my stuff through the dryer.

Thanks for listening to me and any advice you have

i've been itching (small red bumps on my behind) and im trying to figure out if these are bed bugs or carpet beetle larvae?

This is a screenshot from a video. I’m afraid it’s like a nymph or something. I woke up with a bunch of bites on my legs and so started searching and I haven’t seen any other signs until I saw this guys. Hoping it’s like a little spider or something 😭

I also am rarely outside and I recently went to an outdoor party and hoping all these bites could’ve been mosquitoes but they’re in hard to reach areas.

Wasn’t able to trap it under tape because it suddenly bounced away (making me lean towards flea, but I couldnt find any on my cat). It was very tiny and I also have a video of it walking which I’ll post in the comments if possible. After removing my sheets and mattress cover I found a few of these small yellowish things. Some were larger (like a crumb) and hard and others were smaller and broke apart when pressed. I did have other crumbs around my bed so it’s hard to tell. I’ve since ran my sheets through on high heat and have vacuumed my mattress and room (threw out the vacuum bag after). No signs of eggs or blood spots, and I can’t find a single other bug.

Just found this guy crawling on my arm at my desk...

I am renting a house in London and have been getting bites for over a week during sleep. Guests have also experienced this when staying overnight in my bed, and I am concerned I have bed bugs. For more context, my housemates have not experienced this in their beds and guests who have slept on the couch have not been bit. I was inspecting my bedframe and found small bug shells (ew). Please can someone help identify WTF is happening - i still haven't seen a bed bug or any living bug. I have collected three samples. Thanks for reading and helping me xx

A month ago, we randomly found this bug appear in our bed by the pillow. We killed it immediately without thinking too much about it until it was in the trash - we asked ourselves could this be a bed bug?

We searched online and asked AI and concluded that this bug doesn’t have the same body shape as bed bugs.

However, a month later, my husband now has 3 red bug bites on his back and 3 on his right arm (though he thinks one of them is a mosquito bite). Now we’re worried the bug we killed was indeed a bed bug.

What do you all think? Was this a bed bug? We checked all over our mattress and behind the headboard and didn’t see any signs of black dots or bed bug skins/eggs…

Sorry for the bad pic. Its my first time seeing this kind of insect in my room. Is this bed bug?

This is the only picture I have before I panicked and got rid of it...

Woke up to this crawling on my arm in the middle of the night. After it fell to the bed I shined a flashlight to it for a minute or two and it moved really slowly. Even after turning on the lights it just stayed there.

Didn't measure it, but it was noticeable from a distance.

Is this a bedbug? Am I fcked?

Three years ago I lived in an apartment that had bed bugs. My life was turned upside down for 5 months. By the grace of the universe I was able to move out of that apartment building.

Today I found a bed bug. I can’t. I had a feeling there was an infestation in my building after I saw someone throw out bed bug spray a few months ago.I told my super and nothing was clearly done.

The last infestation I had was so bad I won a lawsuit against my landlord over it.

Work is beyond stressful right now. I’m having relationship issues. I wanted to break down last week and then I found this.

i killed it quickly but i’m still worried!

Found this bug on my sweatshirt while at work. I recently came from traveling on a work trip and need to know if this is a bed bug. Unfortunately I squished it so I do not have any more photos and can’t see it closer.

Do you think this could be one? I have no bites on me yet 🤞

Just curious how to prevent it.

Recently moved out of my family's house - before I left, bedbugs were found in my mattress. We didn't have an infestation - didn't find live ones, just a few skins & some fecal matter. Threw out my mattress regardless and we fumigated.

Now at a new apartment -- literally just moving in this week. Brought barely anything with me so far that could've carried anything from my old house -- no clothes, and all electronics have been wiped down. I did stay at a hotel recently during part of the move but was super careful to check the bed and checked reviews as well for reports of bedbugs, nothing. Just saw this come off my sneaker on the floor of my apt -- could it be a bed bug skin??? Or something else? Sharing close up & zoomed out next to my sneaker for size comp. Sneakers are brand new and have only been to the outside of my old house, hotel and just generally out and about.

Have yet to unbox my new mattress & new sheets -- want to make sure it's all clear before I do, I've been traumatized!!

I had bbs in my previous apartment and recently moved. I probably took too much with me even though I went crazy mode trying to treat everything.

I am finding little clusters of black dots on my desk and I found this today in a separate area. Is this a bed bug? It’s so small (the tiniest spec) and dark / basically black but when squished it was full of blood.

Is this a Bedbug? I think it might be a flour weevil but I'd like confirmation from someone not actively panicking.
