[quote=Anonymous]I am a bedbug expert having lived in bedbug infested places in my past.   There is excellent advice on this thread. No need to throw things away.  Put everything in ziplock and plastic trash bags and keep it several days in super hot car.  Including diapers etc.   Clothes are to be washed immediately and dried.  Do not take stuff up in the rooms.   Keep your suitcases wrapped in transparent plastic trash bags.  Do not bring the suitcases and bags up in carpeted rooms.  Use the garage or the kitchen floor etc.  Anyplace where there is no fabric or soft furninshing around.

All other handbag, camera bag, diaper bags need to be carefully inspected at the seams, wiped and then put away.

If you have an infestation in the house, you need to spray in all nooks and crannies  in the furniture, walls and closets with any  regular ant-killer or wasp killer spray  and do a flea bomb treatment.  After that you can steam clean to remove the poison from the insecticide.

Here is another tip.  Pack all your clothes in your suitcase in seperate 2 gallon ziplock bags when travelling. Apart from allowing you to be super organized, keep your clothes dry, be able to pack and unpack with efficiency, it does not give bedbugs a place to hide in your suitcase.  Next, as soon as you go to a hotel room, strip the sheets and check in the seams of the mattress and the corner joints of the bed to see if there are bedbugs, their poop, brown spots of blood or a stinkbug/cilantro-celery smell.   Check the seams of the pillows too.  Bed bugs do not spread around willy-nilly. They are usually in the beds, sofas, cracks in the walls  from where they can descend upon sleeping people and electric outlets.  [/quote]
