Dealling with fleas and bedbugs
I would like some advice as this has become a problem for one of my roomates who just moved in because the previous inhabitants had fleas/bedbugs (i'm not sure on the exact zoology) so do we just call an exterminator or what?
if wejust get rid of the mattress are we done? do they exist in the rug perhaps also? HELP |

Re: Dealling with fleas and bedbugs
Bedbugs live in the walls. They sleep mostly in there until food is around. If you have had bedbugs for a while, getting rid of them can be very expensive and difficult. It can be kind of a disaster.

It's probably impossible to find any reliable information about this on google.

I think the only real way to get rid of them is to throw away all your stuff and move to another place

Re: Dealling with fleas and bedbugs
From what I remember (a TV show on them) they feed off your dead skin, so as long as you keep the bedding washed on a weekly basis (hot water) you should be able to control them, but I think it's a losing battle and most people have them, just don't know it. If you know it, then you have too many due to lack of clean linens and/or the dead skin left behind after sleeping.

So you have fleas. Maybe you keep your house in a state of disrepair. Maybe you live in squalor.
