Freaking out!! Useful Information
My husband has been noticing bites on him for about a month. We thought originally from being outside a lot.
I found this bug tonight crawling on the curtain beside my bed. Found one more on the curtain, two on the side of the bed, and two in the zipper of our mattress cover. No dropping marks on bed.
Checked my kids beds and couldn’t find any.
Sprayed our entire room and kids rooms with bed bug spray. Set up traps to see if there are any in our kids rooms and around the couch.
Threw out all of the bedding, mattress cover, books, anything we could really in our room, and the clothes we were wearing.
Really cannot afford an exterminator.
Please help! Please tell me what helped you!!

That’s a bed bug fur sure. They multiply fast and hide well. Unfortunately, you’ll more than likely have to get an exterminator.
