    I don't think that gets rid of the eggs. Not sure how long the eggs take to hatch, or how fast newly-hatched bedbugs can breed. Might take weeks to eliminate an infestation with ambient heat.

    Heat does kill the eggs

    Did IQ's on this board abruptly go down? Maybe the diesel exhaust is getting to y'all. I NEVER came here looking for advice, just reporting a bad trucking company like the thread requests

    I picked up some bedbugs at a motel once a couple years ago. Contacted an exterminator about exterminating my truck, but they recommended a spray they sold by the gallon that I could apply myself. They said spray it around the edges of the mattress so the bugs have to walk on it to get to you, and spray it again after after a couple weeks to get the hatched eggs. Followed instructions, problem gone.

    Am I reading this correctly, you have had bed bugs for 4 years?!?! Or you are battling Diaz for some compensation for 4 years?

    I think it’s both. The Diaz bothers got a beef going back to that Sun Ray thing. Bed bugs don’t need a beef. They’re just angry at the world.

    Yep, battling bedbugs for four years, nope, not battling Diaz, initially sought recompense from Diaz after the first 6 months to no avail, so I dropped it.
    Could do more to fight the little blood suckers, but can't afford new furniture, etc.
