Are they bedbugs?

in Bedbug Questions



Question by Tasha:
Are they bedbugs?

I haven’t seen any live bugs but while cleaning underneath my bed (I have a box frame bed with drawers under it) I found a previously white shirt covered in brown red splotches. They look about the same color as pictures I saw of bedbug skins in the seam of a bed. I have only been home for a month (after being away for four) and before that (about six months ago) my room flooded. Since then it has been fairly moist in the room and the clothes found in the drawers in my bed were all damp. Is it possible I have a bed bug infestation or simply that the wood of the drawers dyed the shirt that color. Keep in mind the shirt was on top of a pile of clothing and I have suffered from a SMALL amount of itch bumps on my body although I have suffered similiar bumps before not accounted by from bed bugs.

Best answer:

Answer by sknymnie
if the room flooded and the clothes got wet, it could be mold growing on the clothes.

It sounds like mold to me. You need to bleach everything.

Sounds like bed bugs to me. I would have some one come and spray. You will most likley need to get rid or you mattress and pillows and wash all you bedding in hot water.
