Did You Ever Doubt Getting Bitten by Bedbugs?
« on: October 09, 2016, 03:10:51 am »
Well, I think we all have heard the saying, "Don't let the bedbugs bite!" It turns out, that's not a joke. I once stayed at a hotel in Minneapolis, and bedbugs followed me home and bit me in my sleep!

    Well! If the bed bugs eat linen, cotton...and it looks like a cigarette butt burn, probably they will bite you to deposit their eggs.

They seem to be a lot of places.  My hubby woke up as soon as he was bitten in a hotel, caught it and took it to the front desk.  They refunded our stay.

I stay in a lot of hotels for work and I was really paranoid for a while this year about bed bugs because earlier this year one of my coworkers got bit up really bad and had to go to the hospital.  Then a few short months after that I had my first bed bug bites when I stayed at a Holiday Inn in Montreal.

Thankfully, I have never been bitten by bedbugs, and I always used to get so totally confused as to the origins of that adage. However, unfortunately, one of my cousins was bitten (and it was pretty bad).

Those nasty critters, please stay away from me.  Someone very close to me went to visit a friend and got bitten by a bed bug.  It was so sad to see her face.

Never had any abnormal bites in my body.. If not I always spray some lavender to keep insects away from my bed and also to help me relax quicker

Goodness! I remember watching a program on tv called Infested in which a kiddie got badly bitten by bedbugs. I have never been bitten by bedbugs and don't believe I have stayed anywhere where bedbugs have been a problem, but I do believe once you have them, they are really difficult to get rid of. They spread so easily from one place to another and people don't always take proper responsibility for dealing with the issue once they know they have them.

I have heard that there are a lot of critters that "bite" us during the night that we don't even realize, though they're pretty much harmless

Thankfully no.  I'm paranoid as it is with hotel rooms, I don't want to deal with that too!
