My friend Jake is currently staying in Malaysia. Last week his Mother came to visit him, and they stayed in the Heeren Inn in Melaka. Unfortunately for them, the beds were ridden with bedbugs, and after their first night’s stay Jake’s poor mum was bitten more than 50 times. The worst thing is that the owner of the hotel did not even care!
Under the microscope….
A bed bug feeding….
Full with blood….
Aarrggh! Those photos send shivers down my spine. Nasty little blood suckers crawling all over you in your sleep. I declare war on them.
Bedbugs are becoming more and more widespread and they are a huge problem. The first thing I think you should do if you found them is protect your mattress. If they are not in there yet, make sure they can not get in. You will need one of those mattress protectors to put over your mattress. The bugs will not be able to get through it so there will be no chance of them living in your mattress. Here’s a link to a site that has them: mattress protector. After you do that, there are a lot of other things you can do to try to get rid of them in other places in your house. You don’t want them to get out of control.
