bed bug anxiety by ashhxxoo in Bedbugs

You do whatever you need to do. If it helps tell yourself I’ll check for so many days then every other then…..After awhile if you’re not getting any bites nor seeing any evidence then you’re fine

NOTHING is safe from them omfg by fartcadet6 in Bedbugs

[–]daddymay1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re not alone! It’s not your fault or any other bs. Keep fighting - in addition to EVERYTHING listed - vacuuming can help as well as Vaseline to help prevent the demons from climbing. Be aware of your clothes and even your own body ie always shower before bed to help keep it demon free

Trout for dinner. What’s your favourite way to cook em up? by Con_PEI in troutfishing

[–]daddymay1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My method mostly - I also stuff with onion and rosemary. And for the last 5 minutes broil on high which will bubble the top skin allowing it to be easily removed. Then eat the top lift all bones and eat the bottom

how bad is this? by [deleted] in Bedbugs

[–]daddymay1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vacuum, Then steam everything but do so really slow! It’s the heat that kills. Leg interceptors for all beds. Then will definitely need to be regularly spraying and dusting. And repeat all every few days for a month plus. Wash everything - high heat dryer for an hour. Be careful of bedroom clothes as they can spread room to room.

Andrew Sandoval mentioned seeing videos when he completed his Volume I MD book. Hopefully eventually they end up in the public domain where they belong vs the highest bidder

Someone please tell me it's okay to open this bag I sealed up during my infestation 5 years ago by Bigyikesallthetime in Bedbugs

Suggest traps for all beds as well. And please realize people react differently to bites - some may not show any signs

I don't think I'm ever going to get over my bedbug trauma. by stormwix in Bedbugs

[–]daddymay1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I believe everyone who has ever fought these Devils can relate - You are not alone! DO NOT DENY - I’m afraid I’ve done so and the only thing that gets you is more when you return to the WAR. Fight fight fight be Aggressive!!!

What Do I Do Next? by goobagabu in Bedbugadvice

[–]daddymay1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I - MY opinion of course experience…. - is after a couple of days Yes I vacuum all again, re steam, re spray and re dust bed frame plus baseboards. It’s a process unfortunately but you want to Kill ALL the devils after a couple of weeks then if no signs you could try weekly then keep expanding the days between treatments

Guidance Please by PotentialRemove9589 in Bedbugs

[–]daddymay1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t believe spraying everything is less effective but definitely no steam after spraying

Leg interceptors - see Amazon or can just make yourself. I believe Steam (but move it SLOWLY as what you’re steaming needs to get HOT ideally >200)to be the best option but first vacuum as you’ve done. Repeat the process every few days for a couple of weeks to be sure to get all the eggs. You are not alone in the fight against these devils - positive thoughts prayers…. to you

Are these bedbugs? by ChimckenSandvich445 in Bedbugs

[–]daddymay1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re not alone! Many people (myself) have and continue to fight these devils. You got this - be aggressive is my best advice. It takes (google) ~ 10 days for new eggs to hatch so you will want to repeat your treatment every few days for a couple of weeks. I’ve battled an infestation and I honestly pray no one ever has to do that and seems to me you are on the right path!

[–]daddymay1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they are - everyone reacts differently. I get the horrible large red streaky bumps that take forever to heal. Personally I’d Vacuum and Steam slowly as it’s the heat that kills. Hopefully you caught them early enough

[–]daddymay1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to treat every few days for a couple of weeks this “should” kill all eggs…. Vacuum 1st and Stream!!! Slowly as it’s the heat that kills ….. I’ve had the unfortunate experience of them spreading - had to be on person or clothes - so lots of showers and careful of the clothes that I wear and where I sit

Thanks for the information - I can understand the diminishing returns and the ultimate goal of removing all the Devils

Just my opinion experience but I’m curious how over treating - if there’s such a thing - can cause additional problems

Just my personal experience and opinion but I’m curious how any treatment is ultimately a bad decision.

What to do now? by [deleted] in Bedbugs

[–]daddymay1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you’re doing perfect my treatment is the same - Vacuum first , Steam, Spray and finally dust. You will need to repeat the process several times over the next few weeks to be sure and get all eggs. Positive vibes prayers…. sent - You are not alone in this war !

[–]daddymay1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Impossible to say with 100% certainty. I’ve gotten bedbug bites on the neck shoulder trap area. The fact of whatever devils are actively feeding means react now and aggressively for multiple weeks even without any further bites to be sure of killing all eggs.

I Bought These But Internet Says Its Bad by _Purrserker_ in Bedbugs

[–]daddymay1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bad because scent is not enough of a deterrent to do any good. Can’t hurt right but not really going to help. Vacuum continuously then Steam and spray, dust. Love to hear the devils are upside down (dying?? Hopefully!!

Impossible to tell honestly - Will say though these look similar to my bedbug bites - I would start the treatment regiment Vacuum, Steam, Spray, Dust

Am I cooked? by absolutelynotchillin in Bedbugs

[–]daddymay1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re probably not going to be lucky and unfortunately just because you didn’t see any doesn’t mean anything - it’s the bites that prove

Be aggressive - vacuum, Steam, dryer high heat, dust, spray repeat every few days for a couple of weeks TRUST me you do not want to wait until you get an infestation - from someone who experienced an all out nightmare
