  • If you can, move. Wash all your belongings and directly put them in plastic bags.

    I have had bedbugs (bought at second hand bed, yay) and while you probably won’t wake up from being eaten on, my partner gets intense stress from just the thought of having bedbugs again. The knowledge that these little fuckers live in your bed and will come out to eat you at night is really unpleasant.

    If you have to stay at the place, be prepared that you will be eaten on until they are gone depending on the treatment.
    If the infestation isn’t huge pest control will probably just sprinkle some silica powder around where they live (this is like glass making them cut themselves to bits when they walk out to feed) which means you will have to sleep in the bed and let them feed on you. If they don’t detect a body they just stay put, and they can stay put for a year and a half. If you sleep on a couch they will just walk over there instead, spreading the infestation.

    Also they breed like hell so get pest control on that asap

    Edit: oh and for god’s sake do not bring more stuff there until it’s gone.
