Shannon,

That looks like a very hungry bedbug in the video you have! They get longer the less blood (food) they have in them.

Is this a bed bug? Found it an hour ago at Marriott airport in Orlando.

Hello,

I have been getting bitten and finally found out what was doing it.

It’s my worst nightmare, they are bed bugs! I woke up late early in the morning and found these feeding on me!

I captured them and placed the bugs in my sink to capture them in motion. (see video at top of page…)

You can see the last one is extremely large, and much faster than I would have imagined!

I wanted to see if we could break our lease after finding we had a bad bedbug infestation? I wrote the office a letter saying were not paying rent until we have physical proof they are all gone. Is that a wrong thing to do? Should we move? And are they in every apartment then?

Yes, if you’ve been bitten as in the videos you could have a stronger reaction then others. Most simply have a small red mark, many have nothing at all, and a few have a strong reaction.

These pests are so annoying it’s sickening!! They got me tweaking in the nights, watching if I’ll be able to spot one walking around or even to see one trying to feed off of my toddlers!! But to make a long story short, I just wanted to express my idea of how they should be killed: It should be killed by one’s hands – naturally – smashing them to death! But then rumors have it that if a bedbug is killed in that fashion, that their blood carries their babies! Is it true? Does anyone know if it’s a fact or if it’s just a rumor?

Hi Rachel,

They find cracks and existing holes to hide in – a favorite is where two pieces of wood come together yet leave a space large enough to hide.

Well… I live in a 4 unit apartment building that used to be an old house.. there’s an old man that lives under me and i share a hallway with him. I recently saw a German roach passing through the wall and called an exterminator because i’m NOT a dirty person and have done nothing to deserve roaches!

Upon the exterminators inspection of the whole building he found no roaches… but he found bedbugs in the old mans apartment.. that hes been living in for almost 30 years. I personally haven’t had any bites or seen any bugs… but my question is: can they come through the walls or pipes or under the door?! i know i could pick them up walking around his door or on his rugs.

Could my cat pick them up if he accidentally ran into his apartment? I’m scared I’m going to get infested and i don’t want to have to deal with this… is this a way to break my lease? I’m terrified to go back but i cant stand staying with my mother!! someone with answers please help :(
