Bug problem.. :(
I've been suffering for the last several days and it's getting ugly. I have TONS of bug bites all over me. My hands, entire left arm and right foot are looking pretty ugly covered in red bumps, with numerous other bites spread all over the rest of my body, including my fucking cheek. Obviously, I get MOST of these bites in my sleep. That's obvious to me as I am laying there, mostly exposed and motionless - like a sacrificial slab of meat.
Your first claim will be "bed bugs" and I am not going to disagree with you. In fact last night I switched to white sheets before I slept, for this reason. Throughout the night, I sustained 3 more bites - ones on my left arm, leg and hand. I woke up after itching and scratching and I carefully scanned the surface of the sheets with my eyes. Sure enough, I found a TINY red/orange little bug crawling along. I couldn't tell if it was an arachnid or otherwise, because it was too tiny, but it did not have wings. And that explains the concentration of bites in small areas.
But what about the random bites? Last night I came home and I didn't touch the bed before I had to. I sat down in my chair and before you knew it, I had a bite under my right armpit. Similarly, I have sustained random bites while just walking around my apartment.
In the beginning, the bites were tiny. Soon, they grew in size.. as if the blood I was supplying to these guys only made them grow and become more effective. 3 giant mosquitos were found and killed, but the bites kept coming.
Well, today I am going to go out and find some spray and a bug bomb, but I'm not sure that these will be as effective as they need to be. Does anyone have any insight on these bug situations?
