Do i have bed bugs?

Asked by mggie22 about 1 year ago, 8 answers.

My roommate has what appears to be bed bug bites all over her I have none. Our rooms are right next door to one another in the same apt. She has not seen any bugs in her bed or any signs that there are any (I.e. dark spots or shedding of bug skin,...

etc.). We haven't seen any bugs in the entire apt; however, she keeps waking up with bites. We ahve no pets are very clean. How can we properly clean the apt if we do not even know the source? What can these bites be then??

HELP!

Bed bugs can be carried in the mattress and you may not even see them. They leave no sign of being there also. Is she using an old mattress? Was it used before she got it?
That's the most commen way to get bed bugs, an old mattress.

Sometimes allergic reactions look like bed bug bites... Might want to take that into consideration...

If you aren't sure about the bites on her arm, ask a dermatologist. It is possible that you don't get bitten and she does. Try looking at the seams of your mattress for signs of bedbugs. If they are bedbugs, you have to call a fumigator to kill them.
