I got rid of bedbugs on my own. The most important thing is literally don't let the bed bugs bite! and use diatomaceous earth (D.E.). So, how do you not let bed bugs bite you? There are many ways. Isolate the bed (don't let the bed touch the wall or other furniture) and ad interceptors or barriers (bedbugs can't climb smooth surfaces such as plastic or glass) or traps (can be as simple as Duct tape stick side up. ) . The point is you create a barrier (you can also sleep covered - wearing socks and gloves and mosquito head net or bug net. ) Of course if you are going to isolate the bed make sure that you kill all bugs inside the mattress / bed with something like 90% alcohol or Chlorox/bleach if suitable. I also heard that plastic covers on the bed work very well and they make a lot of sense.

To your first question: Yes. It's called "being asleep". Just get DE and powder around your bed and the bed frame. If you have bugs, they'll have to cross the DE to get to you, which will kill any bug that crawls through it. DON'T put DE in your sheets or clothes!!! While it is completely non toxic, it will irritate the hell out of your respiratory system and act like itching powder.

There's a closet where I keep all my sheets and comforters. I haven't seen any bed within the last 3-6 months. However, when I did laundry today, I had decided to wash my current sheets. I went into the closet with sheets and comforters and selected the ones of my choice and put them on my mattress. Let me remind you, I haven't seen a bug on my bed within the last 3-6 months. No black spots. No eggs. No nothing. Just now, I was just lying down watching TV on my bed and when I looked to the side, I saw one little black dot moving across my pillow. I thought it was just a little fly or something but when I got closer, I found that it was a baby bed bug who seemed to just hatched. After making that discovery, I smashed it with my finger and began to examine the surrounding area of my bed. I found two more bugs, one that was scurrying towards me and one that already took a meal of me. At that point, I was petrified. I don't know what to do.

It's not a serious infestation but I just hate the fact knowing you can't sleep in peace because you're conscious of little bugs biting you. I've tried solving this problem on my own; spraying mattresses, bed frames, cracks and crevices, setting bug bombs, and they just seem to be ineffective.

Isolating rooms is often not a good plan for bed bugs. With no food present they will sit and wait for some time for someone to sleep in the room again and therefore not come into contact with pesticides. I can't say whether or not it will work without seeing the infestation myself but room isolation is often not an effective plan.

I realized last week I had them and spent well over 50 hours in my bedroom bagging, removing clutter etc. I have minimized everything and dried everything. Covers checked today 1 week later and I found 1 on my bed and the small bed my daughter was using next to mine on the mattresses I bagged and 1 on the wall for a total of 3. There were no signs in the 2 glue traps, under my intermediate supports and the 4 moats I put under the other legs. I have literally a fitted white sheet and 1 blanket to make it easier during the nights when I wake up feeling a strange tickle or whatever....nothing with my spotlight or spot checks all week until I tipped up that box spring and found 1. My daughter was relocated to the adjoining room as she only stays on weekends, but I did find one between her mattresses that are covered and one on the wall directly behind it. We have linear run baseboard heat that I sprinkled diatomaceous earth at the beginning of the week. Seems like I must have missed something....any advice? I am concerned that they could migrate or may have done so already. My daughter has glue boards under all 4 and no signs on a new bed in the other room when I set it up to get her out of my bug zone.

I have read that the eggs can go dormant for up to a year and a half, bedbugs upto a year, or year and a half. Other sources said 2 weeks, and others said 6 months. What's with all the inconclusive or conflicting information out there? We had bugs over a year ago in the rooming house I am renting in, and sprayed twice on my floor, (was told by landlords it was 3 times though) and this last summer in a third room on the second floor once to my knowledge. Now, I seen a bedbug in my roommate's room (same floor as my room - top floor) one night at the end of November ; mid December, I found a bit of an infestation on my bed. Both times, I told the landlords. This year, as happened last year, they went back and forth between blaming me and my roommate. The third room that was sprayed in the summer, at first I was told it was for fruit flies. In mid-December, the story changed to grass fleas (while they pressed the bedbug infestation was my fault). Rewind to about 4 years ago from now, the previous landlord sprayed 4 times and replaced furniture... I share this all with you because I am wondering: WTActualF is going on? Is it us reintroducing, or is it in fact possible that these bugs can go dormant for up to a year and a half, hiding away in the walls, heating vents, etc.??? oh - and this time, my landlords have yelled at me that they "can't keep spraying" so I am now trying alternative methods (isopropyl alcohol 91%, straight and as part of a mix with tea tree oil and water) , bagging and keeping bagged clothes and items, laundering, regular cleaning regimen, and will soon be getting the DE... I feel so alone in the immediate battle in front of me between this regimen, arguing that it needs to be treated and the landlords as well as my one roommate thinking I'm crazy.... please... help...

Are you saying to use yourself as bug bait? Surely you are not serious. I vacated my room over a month ago. I sleep on my living room sofa instead of my spare bedroom as the two rooms are close together and I'm afraid they will visit me in the middle of the night. My arms are scarred. There is no way am going back to that room anytime soon. It's being treated as well as the other room next door but I feel I cannot ever sleep there again. It will not be anytime soon.

I haven’t had bed bugs all my life until I found one yesterday. I got them from a former friend who had them at his house and he didn’t tell me until he came over to my house one day and I kicked him out. The next day, I look at my bed after doing the baking soda treatment, I have found no bed bugs as of this morning and I have no marks. I’m doing the heat treatment as of now. I got all my heaters on high and I bought bed bug killer spray and I’m gonna see if that helps but I’m pretty sure it does cause I heard it did. I used this kind of spray for fleas and it got rid of them in an instant. I would say go for the heat treatment as that will kill bed bugs in an instant and leave the heat on for about 90 minutes or more however I would just keep the heat on for 24-48 hours

Can you have BB and not see any eggs or live BB on your mattress or box spring? Once you incase your box spring and mattress how long before they leave evidence such as poop or eggs? If I wash my sheets every night will they not want to hide on my covered mattress or box spring or are they too dumb to realise every 24 hours the sheets get pulled off?

So, after successful treatment..would you recommend a light monthly pesticide spraying (say, perimeters) to ensure you keep killing any bugs for a year or more? Since they can go so long without a blood meal, that seems the only way to make sure you get any that are hiding in the walls/crevices/etc. What I want to avoid is having to do the twice-daily vacuuming and washing-bagging everything, all over again!

+Bed Bug TV (Jeff White) I would love to pick your brain .... the pest control company that my apartment manager uses (and my apartment manager) seems to be less than helpful on eradicating these little nuisances. I immediately threw out the mattress and box springs where I found them. I pulled up all the baseboards in the bedrooms and pulled the carpet back from the walls. took apart my bed, removed everything from closets, dressers, bathroom cabinets.They have sprayed twice with zenprox. I still see two or three bugs a day. I have been vigilant on this since I found them. I have also bombed with hotshot bed bug and flea. saw bugs the same day. I took straight bleach and sprayed all the baseboards and the entire bathroom. it has been a month since I first discovered them in my daughters room.....now I don't see them in there, but still see them in the bathroom and this morning found two in my room for the first time. what else should I do? I am so ready to pull my hair out!!!!!

+Heather Aymond it's really tough for me to comment on what exactly is going on without seeing it myself, lots of different factors can drive what the bugs are doing, the reason your finding them in the bathroom is most likely due to the fact that you are using bug bombs, I would strongly suggest not doing that anymore as they will push bugs into unpredictable locations, beyond that I'd have to see the infestation myself and understand what is being applied where, etc...

Is it possible to have brought just ONE home with me? I went on an airplane trip, and a couple days after my return, I found a bug in my bed. I'm still unsure if it is a bed bug or tick. I caught it and put it in 2 Ziploc baggies (lol) My purpose was to observe (to see how long it'll live w/o food n air, or If it'll have babies, how long, to that specific bug, or to time gestation, etc.) That was 4 MONTHS AGO! IT'S STILL ALIVE!! I have washed ALL linens every week, sprayed 90% alcohol everywhere daily, and sprinkled A LOT of baking soda on any carpet in the house. I regularly check the bed seams, and spray alcohol. (I already had a mattress cover) I've not seen any more in these 4 months, is it possible that was the only one? Is there anything else I should or should not do?

+Bed Bug TV (Jeff White) convenienttermite.com/ is the company that came to my apartment both times it was the same guy and he said he had 20 years of experience of dealing with bed bugs. He said they was bed bugs but that we did not have any type of infestation. Just that he seen a few and that was about it. We packed up everything we had in trash bags both times and had to be out of our apartment for 4 hours, no less because he said the chemicals they use was too strong to be around. Since i found those 2 bugs i have checked and checked and have not found or seen anything. I just want to get rid of these things no matter what they are. I am a full-time college student and my girlfriend is physically disabled. So it is very hard on us to keep packing everything up and do these expensive treatments. I looked up bat and swallow bugs and they do look a lot like the bugs i have seen but like i said the exterminator said they was bed bugs but i have never found anything like the situations or images i have seen when i look up bed bugs. I don't know what to do.

I found a total of 8 bedbugs in the mattress crevice and no signs anywhere else. Is it possible that there are only a few? I didn't see eggs or any other BB remains anywhere. I am worried I missed something. Should I spray the mattress and box spring, the walls and floors? Would steaming the mattress and box spring be more effective? I plan on getting a mattress encasement but I want to make sure all of them are gone before putting it on. Also, what are the chance that the other beds in the house will be infected?
@BedBugCentralTV

you asked a lot of complicated questions that I can't answer in a youtube comment, it is possible there were only 8 but obviously I can't say for certain, if you put an encasement designed for bed bugs on the mattress and box spring it would lock anything still on the bed inside and over time kill them. I can't comment on the odds other beds are infested without seeing the situation myself. I would also consider interception devices under or around the legs of the beds to help you determine where the bugs are (I've designed a few myself but always recommend you do your research on the options that exist)

How long were they in the crevices of my Sofa Bed? who knows. I found them and dumped them all in a plastic bag and threw it away outside. I took one captured bug to the manager where I live. He said, Don't go visit your next door neighbor!!!!!!! Amazing how you can figure these things out. I had been hearing gossip from the Oldies here. Telling me that my next door neighbor has been complaining about bed bugs for a long time. I am a person of circumstance. Moving with Nothing except 2 pieces of luggage and a dog, into a 2 bedroom 1 bath apartment with NO Furniture. Next day I go find my Sectional Sofa Bed, that I had decided to sit and sleep on. The 2 bedrooms would have to wait to be filled. I walked into the Managers office where I was Made to sign a form stating that I would have to pay the $375.00 Fee for Bed Bug Exterminating. I balked, saying I don't have the funds for this and I never brought them in. I even had to rip up my Sectional Sofa Sleeper just to make sure that the bugs would not have anywhere to live. I then went out and bought a bed/sofa air mattress. Which by the way was horrible. Finally, someone gave me a nice tall air mattress. which is what I am sleeping on now. I am in talks with the Regional VP about them reimbursing me the money I used to buy that furniture. We will see what happens. Tomorrow Morning the new Pest Control comes in and does a Heat Treatment.

Is it possible to have only one bug? I was getting bit every three-four days, and ended up finding one bed bug. I thoroughly searched for them after finding the one and found no other bugs, no eggs, and only a few spots of excrement and a couple skin sheds. I treated for them, and did everything I could possibly do, and haven't found any signs or had any bites since, and it's been a week. I also put down powder around the door going into my closet and around the heat registers near my bed, moved my bed away from the wall, and put sticky traps around the legs. I've found no bugs in the powder or the traps.

I doubt you had just one but you never know, if you treated the residence well hopefully between the pesticides (contact and residual and dusts) and after vacuuming and perhaps steaming you hopefully solved your problem. I like Temprid SC and Cimexa for a DIY job but I went to a good professional as well. I am in the same boat and was diligent and hopefully bed bug free but my concern is that I got them before they spread to neighboring apartments. I bought interceptors for my neighbors too but have to cut some wood to put under them as they have carpeting. I will keep my fingers crossed for us both. I am not an expert but I have been through this twice in 5 years and have researched the issue quite a bit.

+Cory in AZ It's now been 8 days since I've seen one or been bit. I check several times a day at different times of the day. I've been washing my sheets regulary, ever couple days. The day after I found the one I washed everything in my room that could possibly be washed in hot water and put in the dryer on hot for an hour. I vacuumed with a very nice and expensive vacuum cleaner, and vacuumed again after six days. I put down the powder around the registers, cause they could hide in there. Also in front of the closet door. I spray the matress all over with rubbing alcohol every couple days, vacuum the matress with a shop vac, I have a matress encasement over the box spring but could only afford one of them. I also cleaned everything in the room with hot soapy water, and spray the dresser drawers with rubbing alcohol every couple of days. So far no bites, no signs, and no bugs spotted. I haven't moved any clothes or anything back into the room, just sheets, pillows, and a quilt.
