What is this please? I’ve seen this three times in my house and I’m starting to get a little worried

What to Do IMMEDIATELY

• Inspect your mattress and sheets for tiny black dots (droppings), pale eggs, or live bugs.
• Wash all bedding and clothes in hot water (60°C or above), then dry on high heat.
• Vacuum thoroughly, especially along baseboards, cracks, and around beds.
• Use bed bug interceptors under bed legs to trap them.
• Call a professional exterminator — DIY rarely works if the infestation is growing.

DON’T Do This

• Don’t sleep in another room (they’ll follow).
• Don’t throw away your mattress immediately (it could spread them).
• Don’t assume one bug = no problem.

Final Thought

If you’re seeing these more than once, you likely have an infestation starting. Catching it early is your best shot. I wish I hadn’t ignored the first one…

Please check your bed tonight. Trust me, it’s better to know than to wonder.
