hi /wsr/. do any of you have experienced with bedbugs?
im moving to a place that have a problem of bedbugs for along time now.
do you have any advice, personal experience, product that worked for you?
thank you :^)
1. Throw out your bed.
2. Buy a bed with legs as on pic.
3. Put under that legs hard (for example, iron or plastic) caps with water. So, bedbugs will not come on your bed again - they will be in water. For safety, you can stick adhesive tape horizontally around the perimeter of the room, so - bedbugs will not come from the ceiling (yep, they can this).
4. Be sure - you have no bedbugs on your cloth and body when you climb on your bed.
5. Necessarily call a specialist for treatment against bedbugs.
If you have a big freezer or something, you can put your sheets and such in it for about 8+ hours. I guarantee they won't survive the low temperatures
But you know, only if they're already roaming around
god, I would never move to a place with a bedbug problem.
Anyway you can
-Call pest control, gas all them out
-Burn the place down
-Buy sack of spider, some species eat bedbug and ignore humans
-buy a bedbug pajama: http://bedbugpajamas.com/
not op but I never knew bedbugs had to be treated like lice lol, wtf are these lil buggers?

If you're persistent, you can kill them all by hand. A year ago my bed, my sister's bed, and my parent's bed got bedbug infestation. This is what I did:
1. Take off every bedsheet and bedcover, soak em with hot water. Essentialy boil and drown them dead. Then wash them as usual. I see lots of dead, bloated with water bedbug corpses washed away into the drain.
For safety, I did this naked so no bedbug cling to my clothes.
2. Bring your beds outside. Let the sun heat the beds for the entire day. I live in the tropical third-world state - for you that live in the northern hemisphere, this is the perfect time because its summertime now. Let their young and eggs roasted by the heat.
3. Track down where the bedbugs congregates. They love to gather in every nooks and creases, so keep your eyes peeled. The telltale signs of bedbugs are small black dots scattered around, which are bedbug shit. Note down and keep the position where they gather around, this would be important later. Those places are also where they laid their eggs. You'll also see really small bedbug hatchlings scurrying around.
4. Kill them. I personally crushed them by droves by my own fingernails. Sometimes they congregates in such numbers I have to use minus screwdrivers to grind them to black paste. Sniff the smell of their dead - and remember it! Bedbugs have that distinctive smell, when you know it, you can even sniff where they're hiding (dogs can sniff bedbugs - I don't have a dog, so I have to sniff them myself). For extra caution, douse the gathering places with bug spray.

5. You can also vacuum them. I don't have vacuum cleaner, so I have to do it hands-on. Be careful when getting rid of the vacuumed bugs, make sure they end up dead and no bug cling into the insides of the vacuum cleaner.
6. Remember their gathering places, now black from the blood spilled by your hand? Bedbugs are attracted by the smell of their kind and their kind's poop, and will gather there anyway, even if it look like a mass grave. Patrol those place and do weekly inspection. There would be stragglers, I guarantee you. Keep your eyes on it every week.
7. Do it for a full month. You'll squeeze every single one of them dead - witness how their numbers dwindle along time.

>some species eat bedbug and ignore humans
wth does that mean, all the spiders I know ignore humans
>>336376
>Buy sack of spider, some species eat bedbug and ignore humans
Which species of spiders eat humans?
>>336396
thank you sweet anon. this was very useful
>>336376
do you know which species of spider is the best for this problem?
>>336435
No. No you weren't.
You made a superfluous statement and now you try passing it off as intentional.
Man it surely is the first time we ever saw that tactic...
>>336663
are you serious?
I literally suggested him burn down his house, infest it with spiders or go around wearing a silly net. It was obviously a joke.
Alcohol is a contact killer for bedbugs.
If you find where lots of them gather, spray the shit out of it with high percent rubbing alcohol.

i had a beg bug infestation in my room after i bought some stuff from a general store and there must have been a whole bunch of them resting on those products i bought (which i also stored in my room). i ended up get getting one of those bed bug sprays off the net and borrowed a hand steamer and steamed the fuck out of them and then sprayed that bed bug spray everywhere and they've been gone ever since.
couldn't you just spray around the outside perimeter?
Wash and vacuum your shit, then spread food grade diatomaceous earth where they might run around
