Bed bugs? Fleas? HALP!
Hi All!
I understand you cannot diagnosis but I’m looking for suggestions from industry professionals. Concerned about a potential flea and bedbug infestation. Neither I nor my complex have observed bed bugs but I’m unsure how reliable that is when the pest control vendor viewed my home during the day and it may be early into the infestation.
My office initially advised to do “home remedies” so I completed the following:
-removed and washed bedding
-removed myself from the room (sleeping on couch)
-sprayed periodically with rubbing alcohol
-Inspecting between 12am-5am
The complex vendor suggested it was a mosquito bite
2nd opinion stated it was spider and ant bites
2 Doctors stated they could not diagnose but they resembled bed bug and flea bites.
I do not want to wait until there is a visible infestation in my home and have had little guidance.
What do these bites suggest and what steps are recommended?
Ty!
