You stayed at a hotel with bedbugs What should you do?

If it was a serious infestation, when you leave that hotel you need to take appropriate measures to try to avoid bringing any live bedbugs or bedbug eggs home with you. Otherwise you could bring the hotel's bedbug problem with you into your home. You could spray the inside of all your luggage with a powerful insecticide as well as all clothes you had with you in the hotel. A better idea could be when you get home if possible do not bring your luggage or clothes that were in the hotel into your home at all. Instead if you can afford to just burn the lot outside and as far away from your home as possible.

Can bed bugs give you eczema?

I think it really can. My eczema has been so bad for past about 6 weeks. I didn't know why, and then suddenly I have found out that we were sharing our bed with bed bugs. And since they started "eating me alive" my eczema is uncontrollable. I have become permanent patient in my surgery. I am going mad...

2. As above answerer so correctly says Many people do indeed get various itchy skin disorders including eczema from having bedbugs in their bed, and some people just do not realise that the culprits making their life such a misery are bedbugs. The victim suffers these effects because he or she is usually allergic to the coagulant and anaesthetic chemical the bedbug injects into them before starting its blood meal.

That chemical the bedbug has injected into you is also the reason why you do not feel anything while the creature is actually on your body feeding, when you will usually be fast asleep. The itching usually only starts after the anaesthetic effect the chemical injected into you creates has worn off. That happens after the bedbug has left you and is back in its daytime hiding place engorged with your blood digesting its meal. But they do leave clues because as well as your bed being the bedbugs banqueting hall your bed is also their lavatory! Because bedbugs will usually excrete on to your bed linen or on walls or furniture nearby. So if you see little red marks and stuff that looks like mascara on your sheet or duvet or mattress, that can be your advisory, you have a bedbug infestation. Their lavatory habits will also cause a distinctive musty unpleasant smell.

Unfortunately female bedbugs will also lay up to a dozen eggs in or near your bed after digestion of meals of your blood, so many more bedbugs will hatch in due time. So the bedbug infestation in or near your bed will just get worse and worse as the weeks pass, until you take steps to find the nesting areas and both kill all the live bedbugs and destroy all their unhatched bedbug eggs.

How long does it take to drown a bed bug?

Bed bugs can be drowned. So you just turn to your bath tub and set the water to a high enough point and lay in there for at least about 10 minutes. Once you get out you will see the bed bugs floating in your tub. If the bed bugs won't drown turn the water higher than the tempature you have been in. You might need to wash your bed or mattress for the bed bugs to get off, only if you don't have bed bugs on you. So make sure you clear yourself off before you soak or drown the bed bugs. Once you are done, you may sleep somewhere that doesn't include the bed bug infestation and you may also sleep on a couch.

What the chemical bed bugs put in you?

When the bedbug climbs on to you for a meal from your blood, which it will usually do when it is dark and you are asleep in your bed, before inserting the tiny tube into you through which it will syphon the blood out of you that it needs, the chemical it injects is both an anaesthetic and a coagulant. This chemical compound is something all bedbugs have inside them which they inject into you instinctively to protect themselves from being harmed by you while feeding. The anaesthetic is similar to what dentists inject into you when you are to have a tooth extracted so once it has taken effect you will not feel anything. So you will not feel the sharp piercing into you when it puts the sucking tube in and will probably go on sleeping peacefully and not feel a need to scratch yourself there during the five minutes or more while the bedbug is sucking the blood out of you. Meanwhile the coagulant effect also makes your blood come out very slowly from the wound the bedbug has made into your skin and through the tube into its mouth sucking structure most usually on your arms or legs near your arteries or veins that carry the blood the bedbug wants. So the bedbug will not be drowned. Only after the bedbug has left you after completion of its meal, with your blood now safely inside it, will the anaesthetic effect then wear off. Only then you may get a maddening itch where it has been and scratch yourself to obtain relief but it is then too late to harm the bedbug. The coagulant effect also continues so blood does not gush out of the wound but just come out slowly and in very small quantities out of the wound before it heals.
