I found out last night I had bedbugs..I went to the store and got bedbug spray, new sheets and laundry detergent since I was out. I put the new sheets on the bed and washed the old sheets and this morning I sprayed and inspected and sprayed some more.

I live in Texas and I'm used to roaches. And they are bad enough but these things bite without provocation.

I have a serious bed bug phobia!! Supposedly there is a sweet musky scent to a room that they are in so at hotels I always sniff around the bed! Haha!

Look into diatomaceous earth. It is completely safe (get food grade from a farm & garden supply). We are in Oklahoma and have used it to kill the terrible flea problem we have this year. We can use it eight on the pets -even eat it (but really why). I think I remember it saying you can use it for bed bugs as well. something to look into.

I use this site to check hotels and so far, so good.

I know exactly what you mean! When I first discovered that site, I was on it for hours, LOL. Now it's bookmarked and I do not travel without it.
