Answer by im a nerd
no. bedbugs can live without anyone sleeping in a bed up to a year. i don’t know if you know this but everyone has bedbugs in there bed and you can’t see them-there microscopic. just wash your sheets like every month.

no they will not. they’ll still be there no matter what. you probably need to exterminate your house

shoot, sorry, probably not – check with your city/town health department, but i think you have to take everything out of your room including your jammies, and wash in hot, soapy water with bleach, and vacuum, dust, sweep, mop, and do it all over again. . .those suckers are tenacious – you have to vacuum your mattress all over, and your box springs – google it – i think there’s stuff you can buy to spray to fumigate. . ouch! good luck!

No, and I doubt you would want to do that. It’s not that they are attracted to body heat, they just want a comfortable place to stay for a few weeks. I guarentee that if you exterminate your house areas, they will go away in large groups.

no they will not go away. they can live for a long time without food. and no they are not microscopic. you can see them, but they are very small. just wash all your bed clothes in hot water and you should call an exterminator.
