RE: What are these bugs?
I don't think we will every find out what type of bugs they are, but I just want to get rid of them. They are driving me crazy. I have found that Adams flea & tick mist. I picked it up at walmart. They also sell it at pet shops, petco. It contains pyrethrins. It's suppose to be for dogs & cats, but also works good on humans. I sprayed my rugs, furniture, headboard and box spring with it. I also vacuumed and I had relieve for a few days, but they are back again.

I have read that bugs do not like heat. I have read that setting your heat at 105 degrees for a few hours will kill all of them including their eggs. I have not been able to do this yet. I have three small dogs and it will get to hot for them and myself. I have tried neem oil, eucalyptus oil, lavender oil, citronella oil, but they only give temporary relief. At night to avoid getting them on me I apply vicks all over my skin, then I spray pure eucalyptus oil and pure neem oil all over my body. That's the only way I'm able to get a good night sleep.

Whatever, these bugs are they seem to like cloth. Especially, sheets and blankets. They love rugs. I hate them. Please let me know what has helped for you? One more thing I have read that for an infestation of bugs they recommend you use METHOPRENE or PYRIPROXYFEN, but I have yet to find anything that contains any of these two ingredients. If you know where I can find them please let me know. They are so tiny that you can't see them, but I do feel them on my after I have applied all of these oils all over my body. They die as soon as they touch my skin. ... View related article.
