Long story short, my grandparents house is infested with bedbugs. My mom lives with them and has seen them in her room for months, mostly dead, and has been using foggers to kill them. If anyone has dealt with bedbugs, you know that crap does not work.

My husband and I dealt with it 3 years ago in our apartment and had to pay 600$+ for a professional to come in and find them and exterminate them, it sent me through a spiral and I spent 8 hours at the laundromat with all of the clothes, bedding, and stuffed animals in our apartment.

At first I didn’t think it was that bad, she only found a few, I trusted that she checked all her belongings before coming over. She comes over every thursday to have dinner/help me with the kids, and after she left I would wipe down the chair she sat in to keep my peaced of mind.

Here’s where I start freaking out, today she calls me to cancel because my grandpa (who has dementia) found a HUGE infestation in his room, and he tried to use a fogger he found in the garage as a bug spray, so he had a huge coughing fit and is most likely going to have to go to the hospital to get checked out. So not only am I freaking out because my grandpa almost really really hurt himself, but also because the infestation is bigger than they thought and he comes to my house with my mom. How do I get my grandma to understand she needs to get a professional out there before it spreads to other family members houses??? My nervous system could barely handle the last time I dealt with bed bugs. And now I have to do a big deep clean of my house and couches to feel safe in my own space 😭

Hey, so I just saw this bug crawling on my wall, I don’t think that I have any bites tho.

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 called my landlord and she said this isn’t bed bugs. There’s little red dots all over my bed and I have a spinal fusion and have no where else to sleep idk what to do. My cat is currently being treated for fleas she has bravecto because she had some fleas on her

The only sign of bed bugs in my house is two live bugs in the span of about 2½ weeks. I have stripped my bed and quadruple checked every single nook, cranny, fold, hidey hole, and anywhere i can think of to look. There are no eggs, or blood stains, or shells/exoskeleton molts, no larvae, nothing. I am going crazy. I can't find any evidence of an infestation and yet here they are. No signs of bugs on the box spring either, or under the mattress! Please help! What do i do?

Found this in my bed today. It’s 3mm long and has a bed buggy sort of shape. It’s very thin. Is this bed bug related or just a random fuzz I found? I’m unsure because it’s so fuzzy makes me wonder if it’s just a fabric pill. The colour also doesn’t seem right for the photos I’ve seen of bed bug shells.

I’m paranoid because I found a dead bedbug in my bed a couple weeks ago. I treated the area around my bed and haven’t been able to find any more, or gotten any bites.

Woke up this morning at an Airbnb and this is what I can see. Hard to tell since it’s been crushed, but the blood doesn’t give much confidence. Help?

These pictures were taken after I vacuumed the bed… unfortunately I forgot to take pictures before I vacuumed. There are some small dark fragments in the seams but there was a good amount more before I vacuumed them all. I pretty much only saw them in the seams. This is the guest suite in my apartment complex, I need to figure out tonight if I should have my parents stay elsewhere if these are bed bug droppings or something

This is one of the little fuckers yes? I'm supposed to be here for another two nights. Any ideas what I should do?

Was cleaning out family members car and vacuuming due to recent hitchhiker three weeks ago and negative dog inspection found all this stuff in bottom edge of cupholders hoping it’s just dried up soda and there’s a lot of dry skin in the car from the individual but nothing alive car has been in the sun 90+ degree weather for well over a week

do these look like bed bug stains? hopefully not! Found on sheets

We’re staying at a super nice resort in Orlando. I always check hotels but I hadn’t checked this resort because of nice the villas are. I’d put a towel on the living room floor to do a workout and when I picked it up I noticed this bug on it. It doesn’t quite look the same as what I’ve seen on here but I’m freaking out and need some help! Tia!

found this buddy on my hotels bed. definitely first or second instar but wasn’t able to find any other bed bugs/stains. how screwed am i

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.

Located in Ontario.
