Anyone know anything about bedbugs? Apparently one of the residents at university house for next year has/had bedbugs in their room.
It's not my room or any other that's affected (assuming it is actually bedbugs) and the landlord/agency has said they will treat their room and make it pest free before my move in.
Is it worth taking their word on this or should I seek other accommodation? I wouldn't be considering this had I not signed already and then been told about this afterwards, but now that it's already agreed and deposits paid and shit I don't know whether it's worth worrying about it spreading or not.
Bed bugs can get out of hand but if your landlord is doing serious pest treatment it should be fine.
One thing you can do is buy some diatomaceous earth and put the feet of your bed in cups filled with that stuff. It is not harmful to people.but will dry out any insects.

Bedbugs are hell.

Meh, bed bugs running off walls, and dropping from the ceiling are not unheard of, they are resourceful predators.

They're almost impossible to get rid of. Just get used to them. It'll itch a little in the morning but don't scratch it and it will go away. If you scratch it, it will just get infected and you'll have scabs all over your body.

This, embrace the blood letting.

Fuck bed bugs. Here are some signs to look for and ways to combat >look for rust colored spots around your matress. These are shells and feces >itchy small welts in very small area or in a line >a weird musty smell >start washing all your clothes and sheets in boiling water >bedbugs cant stand heat. Steam your matress if you get any These fuckers are hard to get rid of once you get them. They spread easy and can live for a while on clothes. Good luck
