No,you cannot see bed bugs. they hide in the stuffing.Bed bugs are microscopic so you can’t see them..they live in asian countries though.unless you sleep in straw then you shouldn’t have a problem

No you cannot see them. Your mattress will double its weight in 10 years from the little critters, so they are definitely there. Buying a new mattress, and using a mattress cover helped me get over that factoid.

if your mattress is older than 3 years,,you’ve got the bed bugs,,,,,no,,no one can see them ,,they are very micro,,but one can feel their droppings when you take the sheet off and run your hands in the seam along the edge….vac the mattress regularly..and try lysol even tho it doesn’t kill them,,it will keep their smell down,,nothing one can do about them except buy a new mattress every year or two…..

you can also buy Acrosan from bissell which you can spray and also use to sprinkle on your mattress then vaccum it. the spray formula can be sprayed onto clean pillows or on vaccumed mattress’ and will kill dust mites for up to 2 weeks. it is a new product from bissell so i reccomend checking out their website before you go to the store!

yes they look like roaches. they get very big. one way that you can get rid of them, it sounds very strange but turn the lights off and wait about 5 minutes or so flip them on and take a bar of soap and press it on top of them. you will catch them that way. you will see them. they hide in the matress so the only way to not worry about it is to get a new mattress. But if you don’t have bugs litterally crawling in your bed you don’t have them.
