Bedbug?

Turns out they are... Yay.

They cannot bear 115 degree F for more then 7 minutes. They are resistant to many pesticides. They are not killed with freezing. They can live 2 to 18 months without food. They crawl and live in the smallest nooks you can imagine. Pyrethrin is effective I hear. Cover Seal the Mattress and Bed Springs, ensure frame has no nooks of them and place sticky guards under the legs. Make sure you wash in very hot water like 125 degrees should do it, watch out as they can be in clothes and shoes and will eat in the day, you do not feel them bite until a later on allergic reaction causes the itch.The V.A. home I was in several years back had them everywhere.

Ohh i knew they couldnt resist heat but i didnt know they could live that long without feeding, thank you thats very helpful. I have a small hand steamer that im going to go aroud the entire house with, sadly we have carpet and im not sure if that'll do the job until someone comes to spray the house.

They stay near the bed generally and act sort of like ants in that they leave chemical trails that lead them to food and back to shelter. Seal the box spring and mattress with plastic sheeting and duct tape or with covers for this task. Check bed frame or spray with pyrethrin every area surface on it and set the legs so that none can crawl onto it, as in have them each set on a pan with poison or glue in it to snag them before they can come on.
I guess since the ban on DDT use they have increased in the USA by 500%. A type in New York is the kind that live only 2 months without food, otherwise temperature and other conditions effect this length. The New York strain seems to have grown use to eating more often.
They are gross creatures that use traumatic insemination to propagate.They carry up to or over some 28 diseases they can host. Eggs are glued to the nest site. They often live in groups with eggs and hatch as well as the skins they molt growing and their feces. They are horrible and I wish you luck.
