How to get rid of bed bugs?

sorry I laughed when you said you have bed bugs...

one of the ways it gets on your bed is travel...have you been anywhere recently?

I went to Missouri a couple of weeks ago.

that's the cause then...

well go tell your parents...

Bedbugs are incredibly hard to get rid of. You will need to wash all your sheets and blankets, and probably your clothes as well.

You'll probably also need a new mattress. Even if you kill all the active bedbugs, there can be eggs in the mattress that can hatch later, and restart the cycle.

Definitely tell your parents. They will need to check the other beds in the house too.

It's midnight tho

in the morning then

Tell your parents to call pest control and burn your bed.

Eat the bug wifey

Well did the bug look like this?

First you got to wash the crap out of bedding. Wash sheets and pillowcases thoroughly then wash them. Same with Tory bed/mattress. Clean that as best you can with fabrics soaps and washes or even better a steam cleaner.

If all fails and still get bed bugs then Guthrie your bed and stuff out the window lol.

Get your bed, room, and home and burn it to the ground!

On serious note, you can call a specialist.

If you do yourself, you got to check every room, every bed very meticulously. And then every corner, hole, and so on. They can hide anywhere and can travel far.

Heat is their weakness. If you clean and wash anything, make sure you use hot water and hot setting for drier. After checking and cleaning everything thoroughly, isolate the bed by not making them in close contact to walls and have some interceptors on each bed leg. This way you can monitor the infestation.

Use a mattress cover designed for bed bugs. This way it will be easier to locate them if they get there again. I guess you can go to Home Depot and ask for products to help kill bed bugs.

If you live in an apartment, you may need to warn your apartment manager because they can infest everywhere.

When you travel anywhere, bring a bag or two to isolate your luggage, clothing, and keep it very far away from the bed.

Anyway, it isn't a clean everything, fumigate the place and it's done. These fuckers are resilient. You have to monitor them for a while. My apartment got infested and the management paid for the specialist and they solved the problem. However, they had to revisit the apartment periodically.

Vacuum then Glen20 all the way!!

Thank you everyone for all your help! I have a feeling this is gonna be a nightmare...

I told my mom and all she said was to clean my room because she thinks my messy room is the cause and to wash my sheets and that she'll ask an exterminator or something...

Shit.

She don't know nothing about how bed bugs work.

If you had my mom your bed would be turned to ashes.

Through away you mattresses and get a new one....that's how I did it
