Spotting the Culprits
First up, know your enemy. Adult bed bugs are small, reddish-brown, and resemble apple seeds. They’re experts at hiding in places like mattress seams, cracks in your furniture, and even behind your wallpaper. If you’re waking up to rusty stains on your sheets or experiencing a peculiar musty odor, you’ve got some investigating to do.
The Investigation
Time to turn into Sherlock Holmes. Arm yourself with a flashlight and a magnifying glass. Your mission is to inspect every nook and cranny of your mattress, paying special attention to seams and corners. Don’t forget to check the headboard and any furniture near your bed. If you discover bugs or their tiny white eggs, you’ve confirmed an infestation.
