Hi! I’ve been suspicious for about a week that I might have bedbugs after getting some odd bites at my job. so I bought some interceptors to put under my bed. i’ve been keeping a really strict vaccuming routine on my bed, mattress, and around my room. i also massively decluttered and am checking my sheets and everything daily, which I also put in the dryer for 90 minutes every other day.

I’m just curious how effective are the interceptors at catching the bedbugs? I’m just trying to be cautious and preventative while awaiting to see if I have an infestation.

Attached a pic above of the type I put under my bed. Havent used them yet, they’re on the way.

Thanks! Any other prevention tips or monitoring tips are super appreciated.

Also, any advice on how to keep the interceptors clean?

Do these look like bedbug bites?

Help! Is this a male bedbug?

How effective are interceptors at catching BB’s?
