  • What do BED BUG BITES look like (ok - so I scratched them a bit but darn they itch a LOT!!)?? The wonderful couple I met on the boat going back (he works with homeless shelters & she's a nurse so they KNOW these things) shared a funny way to tell if they're bed bugs or not. Evidentally the bites are often in 3's - as he (Paul?) referred to them as "Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner"!!!

  • WHAT DOES A BED BUG LOOK LIKE? Play the video & see. It's the big one & a couple little ones in there (plus there are some other "things" I found in the bed when I took everything off - including something that looked like it had some sort of larvae/worm coming out of it). The staff kept saying it was MY FAULT - that what I had were tiny ant bites because I had food on the bed. I DID have food in the room - in the corner shelves & in SEALED Ziplock type bags & if you look at all the bags - where are the ants?? I did NOT eat IN my room nor did I hang out there since the WiFi didn't work in the room (it was a Mac/PC thing going on that they didn't fix [luckily I got connected from across the street]) - I ate (except a package of crackers that came with a ceviche I ate earlier outside) & hung on the balcony.
