    If you are in a apartment, the bugs will go from apartment to apartment.

    The bugs laid eggs inside the walls, under furniture and they hatch at different times. This means the bugs have to be treated usually 3 times.

    A spray for bedbugs will kill the adults.

    Some DE food grade powder will kill the bugs that crawl on the floor. It can be found in feed and Tractor stores. Farmers use it to kill fleas on animals.

    Rubbing alcohol will kill them, but not get rid of them. This is good to clean behind the pictures on the walls and when you see them.

    A zip up mattress on the mattresses will keep the bugs out of it and in.

    Call an exterminator. If they are not bed bugs the exterminator will know what they are and what to do.
