Insurance policies generally exclude animal and insect infestation. If there were a policy that covered that, it would be for the damage that the animals or insects cause. In your situation, it does not sound like you have damage from the bed bugs.
I would recommend that you let the landlord know they should have an exterminator come out to remedy the situation. If you don't have success with that route, try contacting the department of fair housing in your area.
Is tannic acid good for killing bed bugs and how do you purchase it?
Yes, and it can be found in black tea. Simply brew up a batch of strong black tea, wait for it to cool and pour it into a spray bottle. Of course, the one draw back is that tea stains so use it carefully around the good linen!
How does God look upon the marriage bed?
4 Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge. Contrary to a view which is popular among anti-Christians, the Bible does not teach that sexuality is itself bad. What determines its 'badness' is the context. The many sad events which the Bible records, particularly in the Old Testament, only serve to highlight the joy, fulfillment, and purity that is the standard outcome intended by God and fulfilled by those who walk 'not after the flesh but after the Spirit'. This may or may not include children, who indeed also are precious to God.
How can you tell if bed bugs are in your wall?
You can tell if bed bug are in your wall or crawling on your wall if you see a flat round bug and see blood in it..strange ansewer..blood, they have been feeding..look around the out lets..i think that if you have an intense problem and you only noticed recently, then it could be traveling to you..remember, bed bugs can live for a year with out feeding..i also think that if they come back after an intensive treatment then,yes they are in your walls..bed bugs travel very easy from apt to apt..so do not let some one blame you unless they really can..people lie about infestation..they do and wait for it to travel..they can force it to travel by using chemicals..well thats what bed doctor does..one for the books..very hard to get ride of..must follow all instructions..rubbing alcohol works well with clothing..either treat night before or wash and let sit in machine,,add detergent because of the smell.but remember,, rubbing alchol, goes away quickly and so does the smell. spray a towel..come back in a hour.. no smell or stain.smell fresh..natures defense works well, but smells like cedar..read web site..use on everything, does not stain..the smell will go away in a week or mop with a floor cleaner..
Some but not all. It has to be really concentrated since they are hardy and they can smell it coming so before it gets to that point, many will go into walls away from most of it and those in places like inside your furniture or boxsprings (extremely common) will be completely sheltered. There is also no residual killing effect. Professional companies almost never use any kind of fog on a bb treatment for those reasons.
Yes they can as long as they kill them before eating them any animal can eat it but is not that it's bad for them they are very good for there health.
There are several types of poisons that kill bedbugs. As of 2014 over the counter insect ides that treat bedbugs. These include Nixalite and Nuvan Pro Strips.
How hot does it have to be in your house to kill bed bugs?
I'm currently having my apartment being treated for these disgusting little vampires, and it is a drawn out process. I have to effectively be the bait while my bed frame is coated with a chemical that causes them to die slowly.
This is basically because spraying extensively and using fogger / smoke bomb pesticides causes them to scatter. (I know this because that is exactly what I have done, and it has made the problem much much worse than if they were ONLY living on my bed, or in my couch).
To be 100% certain of destroying any bugs, nymphs AND EGGS, you need to wash your stuff at 60 celsius, and then tumbledry it on high heat for 90 minutes.
Larger items such as mattresses are a bit more complicated but can be saved with proper decontamination, and I would urge you to at least contact a reputable professional to talk about the bugs you have because, take it from me... after a year of trying to win on my own against these things, I call tell you I am a nervous wreck and near enough broke down. I wish I had gone to an expert then rather than read up on the internet and try and figure it out for myself... I've managed to make it worse, and I've spent 6 months unable to sleep at home for my trouble.
Good luck, let's murder some bugs!

It is difficult to say from information you give. People do not "have" bedbugs beds do,
But "bed" means somewhere people sleep, which includes all kinds of bed structures including sofas or any other dossing down area in any place. It is therefore quite possible if you see little red marks on your skin and it itches after you wake up from sleeping anywhere it could well be bedbugs. But it could equally well be another sort of insect, such as mosquitoes or fleas, that is feeding off your blood.
Fleas are most likely if you have pets in your home, such as cat or dog, and fleas normally like people who are dirty to feed on, whereas bedbugs seem to feed on even the most spotlessly clean people and do not associate with pets. Mosquitoes are not particular but need water, such as rain to exist which neither bedbugs nor fleas do.
If during the day when tidying up your living room or making the bed you do see brown flat looking insects running around very fast when you disturb them trying to get out of the light, then you could well have bedbugs in your home.
Be aware the bedbug biting you is only on your body for about 5 to 10 minutes at most usually much less, and most usually they will only feed off people who are asleep and when it is dark, whereas fleas may stay on your body and go under your skin as they live on a host not hide in the bed or near it like bedbugs do.
Bedbugs only come out of their hiding place to have their meal for about these 5 minutes, then they return to their hiding place usually long before you wake up.
So they may be difficult to spot, and during the 5 minutes or so each bedbug is actually on your skin sucking your blood you do not normally feel anything, because it injects an anaesthetic into you before piercing your skin to insert the tiny tube through which it sips your blood. You will only start to itch where it has been when the anaesthetic it injected into you has worn off, then with some people the itch can be absolutely maddening, but others hardly notice anything.
Marks on your skin also vary a lot in appearance from person to person after bedbug bites. Another clue that there may be bedbugs in your home is if you see little red marks of blood on your bedding, particularly on sheets or pillow case or on the sofa or on the walls near where people sleep.
Where can you find bed bug proof mattress?
I first noticed a couple of red welts on the right side of my upper torso when I woke up one morning. At first I just assumed that these were mosquito bites. But then the next day I woke up and had a few more. The next day, again a few more. Of course I did what everyone does these days, hopped on to my trusty laptop and started working with Google.
It didn't take me too long to arrive at bed bugs as a possible culprit. I actually found some pictures of bed bug bites and compared them to my red welts and bingo, it was very clear to me that bed bugs were the problem.
check out this website http://www.waterbed.org/faq.html#backpain hopefully it might answer at least part of your question

What are the signs of bedbugs?
If you get a bedbug problem in your bed the worse the infestation gets over time, the more perceptible will be the signs of their presence both on you and in and around the place where you sleep at night.
The signs on you will be little red insect bite marks which with some people can swell up. They will usually itch but this is not always the case, as people vary a lot as to how unpleasant the effects of being bitten by bedbugs look and feel. If you do see little red insect bite marks on your skin a way of telling whether they are from bedbugs rather than from fleas or mosquito bites is that with bedbugs you will see usually 3 little bite marks in neat lines very close together, whereas with other insect bites they are usually single marks.
Also bedbug bite marks tend to itch more maddeningly than mosquito bite marks because the skin is pierced more deeply by a very sharp point to get the blood out of you usually for about 10 minutes while you are fast asleep during the night. Also the bedbug injects you with a chemical anaesthetic and coagulant during its meal and with many people this is a painful irritant which may not show up for several days after the bedbug has had the meal, although some people do not suffer that at all.
The signs in and around your bed are various. Firstly if you see lots of blood spots on your sheets or else on walls near your bed, or on mattress and this is accompanied by a musty unpleasant smell this is likely to be deposited from bedbug on its way back from its meal, although do not necessarily assume if there are blood marks on your sheets this is necessarily due to bedbugs. Another sign is little black threadlike looking substances on your sheets or nearby that looks like mascara and only about half a millimeter or less in length which is excreta from bedbugs. A more telling sign is deposits of remains of bedbug skin on your sheet or mattress, as each bedbug nymph moults its skin five times before becoming an adult bedbug and always just after it has had a meal in that bed off whoever is asleep in it and usually do that on your bottom sheet.
Lastly you may actually see live bedbugs moving around in or near the bed during the day if you disturb them from their hiding place, which is most commonly in the folds of the mattress or in cracks and crevices in the bed's structure or nearby. So a good check is to slide a blade along the mattress and see if this results in any little flat looking reddish brown insects coming out and running around. Also try turning your mattress and have a good look underneath where bedbugs often hide in the day. Bedbugs do not like light and that is why they will immediately run away into a new dark place if confronted with light.
You can sometimes see bedbugs in the bed at night or else perhaps on you if you shine a torch by your bed on to the sheet or pillow as here too they will run away from the light rapidly to find a dark crevice to hide in. The best time to try searching with a torch is just before dawn as that is their favourite time to come out for a meal of your blood.
