AHHH!!!!!
I may never sleep again. It has come to my attention that my bed - that I sleep in every night - has bedbugs. I am terrified, nervous, scared, angry, shocked, bewildered, and indignant all at once. I don't really know what to do about it, but I am washing all my bedding in hot water and then drying it on the hottest temperature. I hope that takes care of it. But I don't know what to do about my pillows and mattress. I get all weirded out whenever I think of little bugs sucking my blood all night - I have bites up and down my arms, on my neck, and some on my legs. They are red dots and blotches that are itchy and annoying. So I don't think I am going to sleep tonight, and if I do, I think it will be on the couch. Hooray for new international experiences!

eeeeewwww! okay, now that we've moved beyond the gross-out factor (which lasted a very long time after I googled "bed bug") it's time for a plan of action.
Washing all of your bedding is a good place to start websites say, and they also say to vacuum your mattress, get a mattress cover that will seal around the whole thing, and vacuum and lysol the bedframe, headboard, wall, everything. The bad news? They said online that the best way to get rid of them is a professional exterminator, since it's not recommended to use pesticides by your bed if you don't know what you're doing.
Grammie says "tell him he has to come home! Those people are dirty!" Gotta love her! She also said you have to "go to the doctor to have those bites looked at!" LOL Don't blame you for being afraid to sleep- I would be too! Best of luck Michael! Kill them "little critters!" Love Ya!
