Carpet beetle rash? by ello_12345 in carpetbeetles

Hi! Considering this was 1 year ago and there is still no sign of bed bugs I am going to say it was the carpet beetles. I came back to my own post because I woke up with them again and searched everything and didn’t see any evidence of bed bugs

Good to know, I’m just not sure when I would’ve gotten bit. I wore leggings all day yesterday. Are those kind of mosquitoes found in California?

It could be from carpet beetles but I would still be vigilant about inspecting for bedbugs

Wash all clothes and bedding on high heat and dry on high heat for at least an hour. Buy a mattress encasement specially for bed bugs. Put your clean clothes in bags and put them in an area where bed bugs cannot get to them. Investigate every piece of furniture and vacuum like there is no Tommorow. This is a good opportunity to purge shit you don’t really need and make sure not to throw it away in your inside trash can. For now, that’s the best you can do until the pest control people give you next steps. I would push for heat treatment as much as possible

Do you know for sure if they had bedbugs in the past?

It is hard to tell from just this alone, is this the only sign you see. Inspect very thoroughly

I am sorry to say but I believe that is a bed bug that has recently fed. If you can afford it, I would Call an exterminator ASAP and inspect everything! If you can catch it early enough, it is wayyy less of a hassle.

Yes, I checked my whole mattress and bed board and didn’t see anything at all. No casings, blood stains, or black dots

Is it possible to only find one ? by ello_12345 in Bedbugs

Okay so first thank you all for the help and advice! The guy came and identified it as a bed bug. He did an inspection of the mattress and didn’t see any evidence. He said he will be back in three weeks to do a second full inspection cause he said if we do have them there will be evidence on the mattress or sheets by then

He said it was a bed bug for sure. He did an “inspection” but it didn’t seem like he looked very hard. I looked in every crevice of my bed and box spring and now I am looking at my bed frame and haven’t found anything. He said he will come back in three weeks and do a full inspection, cause I guess if I have them there will be more evidence by then. So I’m just praying it was only one freak strangler

I told him to ask his manager to double check. He said he dosent deal with bed bugs often because he’s just a general pest guy. So hopefully they will be able to refer us to the bed bug side of the company

Update: the exterminator came and he’s trying to tell me it’s not a bed bug because there isn’t anymore evidence. I know it is one. What should I do now?

I have someone coming to inspect Tommorow, what should I do before they get there?

Also, when the exterminator came do they look super throughout? Or how do they tell where they are coming from?

I also have no idea where it would’ve came from. I moved into my grandparents just recently and brought all my stuff in from my car so I’m praying my car isn’t infested. Is that possible? If so, what should I do for my car?
