Up until 1944 or 1945 all homes were infected with bedbugs regardless what neighborhood you lived in and I sincerely hope that they don't get started again in the USA.Bedbugs are easy to get rid of it is the eggs while you are killing 1 million bugs 10 more million are hatching.Someone during these 2 years came up with a program that eraticated the bedbugs and we have been bedbug free for all these years but now they are being introduced again from oversea travelers without their knowledge.I think they were eraticated with DDT but I don't know this but believe me we don't want another infest of these nasty Nasties
