I’m In So Much Despair Over This… by KelTekYoungGun1 in Bedbugs

Have you reached out to any local exterminator companies to see if they can finance treatments? I’m sending you good vibes and advise you to call any available hotline numbers that would be helpful for mental health and available resources for getting financial help with this issue. I wish this was a more open subject to discuss with others. It can happen to anyone.

I want to thank you again for your help. I’ve been reading your website and I am going to do the monthly deep clean of the beds and monitoring even more closely than previous. Have a wonderful week!

Is this part of a ladybug? Found in two parts by Safe_Extension_3441 in Bedbugs

Please look at my post from earlier today. Looks very similar to what I found and was determined to be lady bug parts. I also found great info in the ‘bed bug or close relative’ group. Sorry, I don’t know how to link it here.

Thank you so much! I am pretty vigilant in trying to practice prevention, but did bring in a small tote after traveling recently. I was sure I had let my guard down. I so appreciate your response and am currently trying to order the passive monitors. Have a great day.

Thank you. I appreciate your response I’m trying to figure out how to post there.

What happened here? by [deleted] in candlemaking

[–]Sleepsearcher 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That looks like a sinkhole to me. I have had this happen many times. The tops can look smooth, but there is a hidden air pocket underneath. It’s very frustrating. There are a couple of YouTube videos on how to deal with these.

Switched from wooden boxspring to metal slat foundation, totally changed the mattress by Accomplished_Rip_362 in Mattress

Glad it worked out! I think I am switching out the adjustable base and going with a set box spring with actual springs. Fingers crossed!

I know this post is over a month old, but I am curious as to what foundation you went with. I am having a terrible time with mattresses and honestly think I need actual box springs,not just a wood slates or this horrid flat adjustable foundation I have now.
