I discovered bed bugs in my couch in mid February. They bit the heck out of my arm. It took me a while to figure out what was doing it. I was actually bitten back in mid January but I had no idea what it was.
I finally saw one of the buggers and was like FML! They were also in my easy chair. That really pissed me off. They managed to get into my bedroom but they were small in number and I was never bitten in there. My bathroom and my kitchen are safe zones.
I started bagging my clothing, bedsheets, etc... and washing them in hot water and drying them in a hot dryer. Keeping them bagged so they stay safe. Got rid of a bunch of clutter and vacuumed the furniture and the living room and bedroom. I then tossed out the bag.
I also started getting paranoid about them. I had problems sleeping and thought bugs were crawling on me. It was driving me nuts.
I told my Landlord as soon as I discovered them and arranged for an exterminator to come out. I had to wait over a week for them to arrive. They came Monday and sprayed and told me to come back 6 hours later. The place smells a bit odd.
We'll see if those bastards are gone.
