Dealing with bedbugs was definitely the worst time in my life. I'm also not completely over it and jump when my clothes brush against my skin. Any hotel room or Airbnb I stay at gets a thorough examination around all the beds before my shoes come off.

It was a lot of fun explaining to people that no, I couldn't entertain them at my place because it was a functional quarantine zone. Oh you're going to stand way over there while you talk to me, that's cool I guess.

This is a joke community, but seriously. If you're reading this, go search online for what a bedbug looks like and be aware of signs of infestation. You do not want to have to fight with them when you could have acted sooner.

It was truly awful and I'm sorry you went through it too. I bought a pocket flashlight and I inspect hotel rooms with it, even the headrest at a movie theater. I still run every piece of fabric in my home through the dryer every couple of months just in case.

Seriously to people reading this, the mattress encasement and interceptors cost about 100 total, spend it now and save yourself a world of hurt.
