You haven't made yourselves insane yet with this over the top program?

Over 2000 nights and no bedbugs as yet....
Nope not tired of it yet. I have a friend who got bedbugs. It was awful. I cant live like they had to live. I'll take an extra 30 minutes work a week even if it only reduces my chances of exposure by 5%. Unless I spot a bed bug I'm not disassembling stuff. I just thoroughly check and wash immediately upon returning home.

Bed bugs travel in luggage/bags/small crevices (like those you find in electronics) not on the host. They can live quite some time with out feeding on a host (I've read up to a year). Non adult bed bugs are translucent and pin sized. They can fit anywhere that seems dark, tight, and safe.
