I'm pretty sure the place 'm staying at has bed bugs. I thought they were mosquito bites or a spider in my bed, but this is a bed bug right?
What do I even do? I'm renting a place, this isn't just some hotel I can ditch.

Hang all your shit or put it in the bathtub.
If you're sure something hasn't been contaminated, isolate it from the stuff that might have been.
You can do what you can to tear apart the bed and try to kill adults, but otherwise relax and try to enjoy your stay. They don't carry diseases, they don't even itch for most people.
Before going home, check fucking everything. Every seam, buckle, and buttonhole. I swear to god they are intelligent little fucks who know where to hide. When you find one it'll squirm and cower, like you've just discovered Anne Frank.
Throw everything in a hot dryer before taking it into your house.

Option 2 is to throw all your luggage into a plastic garbage bag when you get home, seal it up, and forget about it for a year or so.

Oh look, the other thread about this is still up.

Google answered in seconds, this seems everything you need to know:

The wash-and-drier thing is probably a good idea just in general.

To which I'd only add, avoid staying in hell-holes that never wash the sheets if you can help it. Not all dives have bed nugs, and some nice places can get them, but you can work the odds in your favor.

Yes that is a bed bug and they are fucking impossible to get rid of. Just throw your fucking suitcase or whatever you're carrying stuff in away. Throw ALL of your clothing in a dryer for a long time.

You will be so, so fucking sorry if you get those little fucks in your house.
>>
when you get back to your house, dont go inside

throw your suitcase and all the clothing inside in the firepit and let er rip

yes, the $500 is a sad loss, you wanna know what would be even sadder? months or even years of headache plus the ruined furniture, paintings and everything else in your house when the exterminator turns the house up to 250 fahrenheit to kill the buggers


next time dont cheap out on hotels.

It is impossible to get rid of them unless you burn down the place. They are indestructible. If you are staying in a tropical area watch out for the neglected tropical diseases, you can catch a parasite because of them.

It's all of my clothes and I'm not at some cheap hotel, I'm renting a room for 3 months.
I seriously doubt I could afford all new clothes. However it does seem like 30mins in the dryer is guaranteed to kill all the eggs.

The reality is that not only dirty motels have bed bugs. Bed bugs are making a huge comeback, I've worked at 4/5 star hotels that had bed bug outbreaks.

Wash and dry your clothes on the hot setting. Get a steamer and blast your luggage. If you're that worried about it, when you get home get a mattress encasement (good investment anyway because it'll help your mattress last longer) so that they can't set up shop.

I was in a somewhat luxurious condo in Malaysia. Rent is 1500 usd per month.

Right arm literally destroyed by bed bugs in the past week.

Cancelled on airbnb. Get a complete refund. Including the week been there.

Thanks airbnb

The ThermalStrike Ranger on amazon is your friend. Seal your shit up well in garbage bags when you get home, then cook them in the oven.
