[QUOTE="Anniesantiago, post: 249038, member: 3502"] Both of you need to be VERY careful not to take these back to your home!!! I suggest you spray EVERYTHING with insecticide and wash EVERYTHING in HOT HOT soapy WATER, then put it in a HOT HOT dryer. Personally, I'd toss it in the garbage and buy new things. Also, don't forget your shoes, pockets, and hat, where the bugs hide and lay eggs in the seams. Also your money belt, your fanny pack, any dark place can carry hitchhiking bedbugs. If you DO take your items home, when you get home, I would NOT take my backpack or any of my gear into the house. Instead, put it in a black garbage bag in the sun, and if it's cold where you live, spray the hell out of it, and seal it up for a week. It sounds like you are infested - and if they get in your house, it could be horrible. Also, please consider the fate of luggage put next to yours on the plane. And if you think it's too expensive to get rid of all your gear, think of the expense to clear the pest out of your home. I'm so sorry this happened to you - I've only been bitten twice, but I've seen people eaten alive by these pests, and it's a horrible thing for some. [/QUOTE]
