I thought about this since it's been about a year, but last July and August, I had bedbugs. Never ever have bedbugs, they are some evil little bugs.
Wasn't my fault either. Couple years ago two apartments upstairs got them. Then they got them again. Then the guy next door to me got them. Then they decided to move over to my apartment. Part of the problem is the landlord is a cheap-ass and wasn't hiring an exterminator but rather trying to bomb them himself, and I don't think the bombs worked because I'd see some alive in the cracks afterward.
And they drink blood. You'll wake up and see these little brown things running across your bed. Look like flat rolly pollys. You'll have little red dots on your skin and it will itch. I had to put myself to sleep with sleeping pills because the idea of those things crawling all over me wanted to keep me awake. I woke up once to find one crawling on my neck.
I was able to save most of what I owned. The landlord bought me another bed. My stuff was boxed up and taken out (which is probably why other people had reoccurrences of them, they would hide in the boxes) We stripped up the carpet and found them living beneath it. Cracks were sealed. I inspected stuff while bringing it back in and found some hidden in furniture. I probably spent almost $100 on bed encasement, poison spray, bed leg traps, and powders.
But nothing so far. But the two apartments upstairs have had them again this year, and I saw one in the spring that I killed.
