Absolutely! They are actually referred to as “scabies”. They burrow under your skin like chiggers and will make you itch like hell. The only proven way that I know of is to burn the mattress, ( but if you live in the city call the waste management company that you use and alert them to the fact that you are putting a mattress out and they will take it away. Your sheets can be salvaged if necessary by washing them in hot, hot water along with any other items that were on the bed. Pillows gotta go. Make sure they are scabies before you do all of this. you have your work cut out for you. I’ve never had them, but my neighbor did and I learned from her all that I am telling you. Good luck to you.
