Still fighting bedbugs

The ultrasonic emitter we got 2 weeks ago was not very effective, the bugs were somewhat annoyed, but did not leave. It shouldn’t be so easy…

Next step, Grace bought some natural repellent scents placed near the beds and non-toxic (to humans) spray which we spray onto the bed-frames.

Another defence we employed: double sided tape. We taped all round the mattresses to trap bugs crawling up to us when we sleep.

Rather effective, as most of the bugs get stuck and we did not have bites during our sleep.


A few did get through and took some blood, the last photo shows a freshly fed bedbug squashed, and our blood spilled.

The steaming continues, too, and we will also regularly vacuum the house.
