Today, I discovered I have bed bugs. I have nowhere else to sleep and I won't be able to afford a new mattress for at least a year. I'd better get used to these giant welts. FML

Today, three days after finally having a bed to sleep on, I woke up with multiple bedbug bites. I can't use my blankets, wear any of my clothes and it's back to sleeping on the floor for me. FML

Today, my girlfriend and I moved back in after over a month of couch hopping and $2,000 of heat and chemical treatments for a chronic bedbug issue. I just found bedbugs on my legs. We've used all our favors and have nowhere to go. FML

Today, I woke up to something crawling on my leg. Thinking it might be a spider, I jumped out frantically to check. The good news: it's not a spider. The bad news: it's a bedbug. My apartment was just treated for them. FML

Today, one of my employees called in after his 8-hour shift, explaining that he had bed bugs at home, found one on his shirt, and thinks they are in the store. I own a mattress shop. They'd spread. FML

Anti-peasents? That's what is wrong with this kingdom, there are too many peasants. We need to find ways to motivate them to grow and harvest food more efficiently. The floggings are just not working like they used to do. That way we can increase our manpower for the construction of the castle. I would like it to be completed in thirty years so I can use the money left over for the training of knights. We also need to widen the forest by the road so there is safe passage through Sherwood Forest.

Call an exterminator. That's the only real option. Pesticides don't work. Diatomaceous earth is not a cure-all. The can live anywhere: bed frame, mattress, electric sockets, inside your alarm clock, a crack in the floor board. They can live for nearly a year without food.

If you're renting in BC get your landlord to fumigate.

or you could invest in a plastic mattress cover and some bug bombs... bomb your house, spray your bed with disinfectant, then put your plastic mattress cover on. the bomb and spray will help kill the bed bugs and the cover will help trap and for sure kill them. they even have some platforms you put under the posts of your bed to keep the bugs from climbing up in your bed.

I'm no expert but I would assume there are some sprays ect you can buy to help kill the bugs? If it exists, it must be cheaper than buying a new mattress...

I would do what ever you can afford to do but do it quickly . 122 was right bed bath does has a few different types of bed bug protectors . they also have a spray called rest easy that's supposed to help prevent them .
