Bedbugs!

I just recently completed the purchase of a used RV. Everything looked good and in working order, and it seemed like a great deal. Until I tried to sleep in it.

Bedbugs! No returns! No exceptions! I've been hoodwinked.

From what I've read so far, If you're cleaning house and you leave even a single bug alive, it can restart the infection. And the only surefire way to kill them all is fumigation.

Problem is I can't find any companies advertizing such a service for motor homes. It seems to me that if you could fumigate a house, you could do the same for an RV, but before I start making blind calls to local pest control companies, I wondered if anyone would have some useful advice or experience to share on this issue.

There are special sprays for these kinds of infestations. (I have used it when traveling at times) But also get the mattress out in the hot sun for a day, spray with the insecticide. They dont like floors or hard surfaces and eat bits of cast off skin. They tend to stay on or in the bed. I honestly think this is, on the whole, a very easy problem to deal with. You do not need an expensive service for this. Your local pharmacy can steer you to a spray for beds for bedbugs.
