I stayed in a house with family members a couple of nights ago and noticed bites on the legs and at first I thought they were mosquito bites … but two days later, was that not just turned a darker red (but no more bites). So if you are bed bugs I'm worried that the clothes he wore when I was sleeping is infested? I put on my shirt and shorts cousins (for those who stayed at home) but my own hoodie, so it's just my sweatshirt, but then I stayed on it because I left my suitcase on vacation so now would have infested the rest of my clothes! What should I do to prevent these bed bugs in my own house? Is it okay if I start washing when I get home in a few days? I took the sweatshirt of my suitcase to get away from everything that was up there for less than a day. I am very nervous please give me some peace!

Solution:

Wash clothes when you get home. Do not put clothes on any carpeted surface when you get home, or your bed. Since this is only the legs, if you have pets, this could be flea bites and the application of hydrocortisone cream on a regular basis should make them disappear. In that case, there is no excessive cleaning is required of her belongings. You can go to WebMd.com and type of bugs and read about how to clean your belongings if you really believe this to be bug bites. But if so, you must have bites in other areas as well. Fleas, like the legs and ankles.
