Okay, so I'd say probably about a week ago I thought I saw something crawling on my bed, wasn't sure what it could be googled it, and came up with a possibility that it was indeed bed bugs, the next day I woke up around 2 AM, and saw another one crawling. Now, I'm really freaking out. Ever since then I've barely been able to sleep, or honestly think straight. It really sucks!
I called an exterminator yesterday, and luckily this guy seems to be super nice, and he came out today to check it out, and of course my worst fears came true. Which now makes it even harder to sleep. He prepped up and sprayed some stuff today, but informed me what he sprayed would only probably kill some of them, and not all of them. He's coming back next week to start actual treatments. Which I honestly can't wait for to start the slow and long process of defeating these nasty annoying bugs.
I myself plan on getting rid of the actual bed, bed frame, dresser, among other things tomorrow. He informed me that it was probably my best bet to get rid those items because for one it gives him more room to work, and that a large number of them are probably in there so it won't stop the issue, it'll at least somewhat help it. Which with the bed and stuff, it's old as it is(along with the mattress, and dresser). So eventually getting new stuff is probably long over due anyway. Although won't be doing any of that until I know 100% these thins are gone! Luckily I have an air mattress I'll be able to use until then. But I believe at lest in my own mind it'll at lest ease me a bit knowing that the bed, dresser, etc is gone. I'm definitely wrapping/slashing the mattress(among the others), as I know putting that stuff out for the trash I can envision some one trying to pick it up, and I wouldn't want my worst enemy to go threw this. It's a living hell!
Not sure, what to do before next Monday, but I'm definitely going to try my best to at least try and force myself to sleep. I'm luckily off work tomorrow, so staying up late tonight is fine(not ideal).
Honestly, not sure what I'm trying to say. I assume people's experienced this problem before and are currently are now. And honestly I just want to know what others did? What did you guys do to try and sleep? How'd you guys try and block it from your mind? It's really over taken my life. I can't focus on what I should focus on I'm honestly consistently in fear. I feel like I'm a prisoner in my own room, especially at night as I don't want to go anywhere else to make the issue worse.
Anyway, it's nearly 1:30 AM now, not sure what I'll do. Hopefully I can force myself to sleep tonight though....any of your guys advance would be helpful though! The exterminator I hired also gave me his cell phone number, and luckily he's always willing to answer text or phone calls, which is reassuring for sure. Wish me luck guys! I'm ready to get rid of these annoying pest!
