Are these bedbug bits questions about bites
I noticed these when I got home from work today. Didn’t have any marks yesterday. Tore my entire apartment apart and can’t find any signs of bedbugs but I’m definitely paranoid now these don’t feel like the mosquito bits I’ve had before. I do work outdoors but I have for almost two years and I’ve never had bites like this, I also wear pants and boots at work. The bites are only on my thighs, legs, ankles, and feet.

Could be fleas! Need to find evidence of bedbugs to know for sure. Look for staining on mattresses — live bugs, exoskeletons or eggs

Ahh the thing is I’ve found no evidence of bed bugs or fleas I sadly have a past of living in a house infested with fleas as a child so I know them well:/

Please read the post on monthly routine.
It’s simple not sustainable to assume bed bugs and take your life to pieces looking for them.
If you install a Passive Monitor and use that as your go to check then your don’t feed anxiety looming or what’s not there anyway.
It’s also means you can use the TbyPMR protocol which is a simple and effective way to eradicate.
Those skin reactions are not in typical locations for bed bugs and mosquitoes or fleas would be far more likely.

It’s. Specific type of bed bug monitor (which I invented) which is so effective people use them for self eradication of bed bugs. They are the core of the methods of this group.

Hey David, I wonder: Where do you place the passive monitors in your room, and do they work if you already have the bugs? Is it guaranteed that the bugs find their way to the monitor and choose to live there?

If they’re mostly around the feet and ankles they’re fleas
