How do you get bed bugs?

Question

I am really scared of getting bed bugs. I have a very small apt and the bedroom is cluttered and I heard you can get them from a cluttered bedroom. Does anyone know if it is true?

Answer 1

My bedroom is also cluttered and I don't clean that often (I'm a guy).

I don't have bed bugs.

If you do have them, buy cleaning sprays or whatever from the store.  Move everything out of your room into the living room.... clean it all up and put everything back.  Get rid of the junk you don't need.  If you need new carpet, ask.

Take showers, change clothes, change sheets, etc will keep them away.

You never can get rid of all the bed bugs, but don't fear them.

Answer 2

they live on dead skin cells.. so if your room isnt vacuumed and kept clean..then yea you can get them..and just wash your sheets regularly..that'll keep them from coming over to visit you.

Answer 3

my daughter was given a bedroom set from her in laws as a gift and the matterss had bed bugs...it was horrible...if the people who lived in there before you had them...if it wasn't sprayed you could get them.  they will bite...you would know if you had them
