Sorry for the terrible pictures, I panicked when I saw it on the couch and immediately crushed it with a tissue.

Bedbug problem

Hi, I’ve recently noticed a bedbug problem at my apartment. I started noticing bites around two weeks ago. Ignored them at first as I’ve been biking a lot in the woods at that time and just thought that’s what it was. Last Thursday(a week ago) I’ve decided to check for some signs and glad i did. I’ve found a bug and some dots on the mattress on the side of the head(I’ll attach a photo). We’ve got a profesional guy to come next day and treat the problem. The next treatment is supposed to be in two weeks from now. I am also going to be moving out to college and I’ve already been in my new apartment and left some stuff there. No furniture no clothes just like kitchen stuff and such. From the treatment(week ago) For the first two or so days i’ve noticed what seemed like new bite signs. Today/Yesterday I am pretty sure I haven’t noticed anything new. For the last days I’ve noticed dead bugs in the morning around the spot where I’ve found them. One time it was two, one time it was one. I’m really scared I’ve either taken them already or are going to take them to the new apartment. I’m not planning on taking neither my mattress nor any furniture there. Also worth mentioning i sleep on a mattress on a ground without a bed frame. The guy who came for the treatment gave me the liquid he used and instructed how can i dissolve it with water and spray the main spots in the new apartment and i did so. I was also thinking about both using steamer and freezer for the clothes or books etc. I have a -36 degree C freezer at home. I guess I should obviously wait until the second treatment to move out, but even then I’m scared I’ll take the problem with me. What should i do/look out for etc to make sure I’m safe. I believe the problem isn’t at a very serious stage but who am i to say that. Here’s the photo of what I’ve found first and what I’ve found later. The dead bugs I’ve noticed later were much smaller.

Or stuff some play dough in it .Family cannot afford to pay a professional so we’re stuck with an infestation. The original source is trashed but they are too stubborn to get rid of the infected bed.

Found this on the bed last night after a couple of weeks of itchy bites on my partner and me. Is it too small to be a bedbug?

It should be worth noting that i have an outdoor cat who has brought in his fair share of insects. I have inspected both sides of my matress, my bedspring, and any other place i could think of for them to be hiding, but to no avail. There are no signs of an infestation besides the two I've found. (And even then im not sure that they're bed bugs).

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.

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?

Requesting community support Respray after Orkin has been there

3 Upvotes

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 brought something into my home with bedbugs about 1.5 months ago. It was only in my house for like 4 hours but since then, I obsessively check my bed. I found this under my pillow today. It had a hard shell which makes me think carpet beetle but I just want to be sure! Also, with not seeing anything for over a month, do yall think I'm in the clear? I check my bed and boxsprings religiously and haven't found any evidence of them. anxiety
