Ok. I recently moved into a new apartment (provided by my school). Provided with the apartment is a single bed. I am planning on buying a new mattress, but haven't done so yet. Seeing as I haven't bought a new mattress yet, I recently steam cleaned the mattress, bed-box and all the pillows that were in the apartment.
But, I've also recently noticed that when I wake up, my legs are covered with small blisters. For some reason, they're only on my legs. I'm quite fanatical about cleanliness, so I doubt it's a hygiene issue Wink , so I'm assuming that there this bed has bed bugs.
Does anyone know of a product I can buy to kill bed bugs? Like I said, I do plan on buying a new mattress sometime in the future, but for now I just want something to use on the mattress in case there are bed bugs.

Thanks!

Shoot...just realized this is probably better for the General topic forum.

Mods. Can you please delete?

I'm not sure of specific products to get rid of them. Usually a good vacuum should do it but you mentioned you have already stem cleaned it so i dunno. Maybe you should just bite the bullet and buy a new mattress. If it meant you get proper sleep for the next year it'd be worth it I reckon.
