Yesterday. I did do some things. I dont have the funds to get the covers, however, I have a catalog account that I not maxed out my credit limit. so I ordered, box spring and mattress, and pillow case covers for all 3 beds. It wont be shipped until sept 7.
Looked up on line what they look like, small like apple seeds and flat. If you have a whole room/apt it will smell like rotten raspberries or almonds. To look in seams, and cracks and behind photo and anything hanging on the wall, and outlets. they can live without feeding for a year.
It says to vacuum, really well, wash every thing in super hot water and hot dryer (all bedding, etc) if you see them. They leave reddish, goldish or blackish streaks on mattress or sheets.
The apartment manager said they were treating 7 apartments around that one, to prevent spreading, mine isnt on it -thank goodness, she told me to keep an eye out.But they will pay the expense of fumigating, not sure about replacement furniture. I have renters insurance, I dont know if that is covered, will have to find out.
Even top hotels are having the same thing.
One of my neighbors told me to go to the garden store and get something called promethium earth, and sprinkle it around the carpets and walls, that will get rid of them. I think it is pretty toxic. but seems that is the only thing that works, strong pesticides,augh.or maybe it was this pyrethrin,
Haven t seen anything like that.
They can travel.Bedding, clothes, suitcases, furniture.
Certainly makes me not want to go rummaging for old furniture to redo anymore.
they can live in super hot and extreme cold.
I have a firewall between my apartment, but still.
I saw this morning that the pest control person was at the other apartment again today..
I do have a small steamer. I didnt think of using that.
The eft might help me get calmer.
And the releasing, focusing thing may help too. give it a try anyhow.
I have some clove oil and tea tree oil. But that might work, so will get some more oils on the  first.

you don't have to understand here, to be here
