Just a fyi and a tip learned in some public housing. While there is a huge stigma linked to bedbugs and their removal, it was proven that Bedbugs can be addressed with the help of food grade diatamacious earth. The high cost of bedbug treatments in Michigan led one property manager to switch over to de and see what happened in 57 units she had under infestation. Within a couple of weeks, the Property Manager saw that the infestation stopped and no further problems arose. This treatment is very hush hush and often poo pooed by many as they choose chemicals etc., but I heard about this while at a conference (along with the full story) in a closed session of managers. It is cheap, it is safer than chemicals and more effective than heat treatments with fancy equipment and it works.
