Question by Nancy Beth:
how do u treat severe case of bedbugs, spread throughout the apt. $ $ are limited. Thx?
The apt is in the basement of a house. 2 tenants live above me, then the landlord’s pigsty above that. Landlord threatened me to get rid of them or he’ll meet at the Tribunal. I am a very clean person, as are ALL of my friends. Don’t know where the bedbugs came from.
I thought to start, I would wash all clothes/linen possibly infected, then vacuun carpets, couches and beds, then spray with “bedbug” spray, Raid House & Garden Bug Killer. It lists bed bugs as one of the varmints it kills on contact. Due to an injured right hand, I need help to lift the mattress and move couches, etc
I’m on disability so I tried a few agencies. One arrived and said “This place is cleaner than we EVER do,” and walked out. I offered some strong guys in the area and ensured them that I would roll their pant legs and spray their ankles & any exposed skin with bug spray containing 25% DEET. No takers. Good help (any help) is hard to find!

RID lice removal kit
Get a new matress. But I have also never heard of such a thing. Do you have pets? Are they fleas?
Are they on your body too? Is it lice?
Google for pic and see what you can find on the internet that matches what you’re seeing.
