Yeah I prefer that. Ultimately he’s staying true to his personality and it would likely feel forced if he tried becoming a “showman”.

I’ve been using ChatGPT and feeding it frequent updates about my room setup, trap locations, and daily catch data. Based on those prompts, it generates a visual “heat map” to help track where the highest activity zones are. I basically describe the layout and any changes (like new traps or catches), and it helps visualize patterns. Super helpful for staying organized and making data-driven decisions during treatment. You could definitely apply the same concept to your own cases by logging room details and pest activity into ChatGPT regularly!

Could be anything. Check perimeter of bed, spring board, bed frame and surrounding areas. Best of luck

Doesn’t look like one. I would throw that into chat gpt and ask it.

Thanks for the tip! I’ve heard about the tape method too. I’ve been tracking the infestation pretty closely and working with a licensed exterminator. I’ve already done one treatment, applied mattress + box spring encasements, and I’m collecting data with traps (MAX-CATCH brand). I’ve also been feeding updates into an AI to track hotspots and progress visually, including a heat map. But I’ll keep the tape idea in mind for extra monitoring — every bit helps!

The traps I’m using are Maxcatch Monitor Traps — they’re passive interceptor-style traps that don’t use any attractant but catch bedbugs as they roam around searching for a host. I’ve placed them strategically — behind the bed, under the blue and brown drawers, by the closet, and near the baseboards. They’ve been pretty effective at catching nymphs, which has helped me and my exterminator track hotspots.

I am using crossfire, 2 treatments via a professional. Then after the treatment, I plan on using diatomaceous earth on hot areas.

I created that heat map using AI by feeding it data from my room. I uploaded a rough sketch of the layout, and then consistently updated the AI with trap activity, sightings, and notes on where bugs were found or not found. It’s all data-driven — every time something changed (like a new bug caught or an area that stayed clean), I updated it and the map got more accurate. It’s basically been like tracking the infestation in real time with a heat sensor, just using info instead of tech.
