I wish I knew why bedbugs came back with a vengeance. Of course, here in the Texas heat, there is one good thing. Letting my rig stay closed up, where the temperature gets to 120 or more, cooks them. After 2-3 weeks, the eggs hatch and get broiled as well.
There has to be something even the roach motels can do about bedbugs. They went from virtually nonexistant to a menace everywhere.
Most experts think it has to do with the global economy.
They were pretty much eradicated in this country with the use of pesticides and methods of removal that are now pretty much illegal. One of the fav methods back in the day was cleaning metal coil beds and furniture with kerosene. Seems like that would've deterred smoking in bed but I digress...
The sad truth is nowhere and no one is safe from bed bugs these days. On the bright side they are not thought to pass illnesses to humans unlike mosquitoes.
