In the end, you still have them. So doesn't that make you equal to them?

No it doesn't just because you have bedbugs doesn't make you dirty.

My neighbors don't clean up their house, they have roaches, I'm not even sure
if they bathe.

My house is clean, we don't have roaches, we bathe.

But you still have bed bugs.

Just do a big clean up. You're eleven and old enough to clean your room. Vacuum the hell out of it and replace throw all your bedly stuff in the washing machine. If you see something: stomp it; squish it; spray it; drown it; cut it; shoot it, do whatever it takes. Vacuum every day and check every corner of your room for one week and bingo, bye bye bedbugs.

*reading about those strange things*

So, let me see if I understood. This is an bizzare insect that looks like an flea/tick hybrid and that lives on your bed to sucks your blood. Koolz.

Wiki says:
"Since eliminating the bugs from the room or dwelling is so difficult, it is critical to isolate your bed, and so remove their food source - you. Since bedbugs cannot cross petroleum jelly and have difficulty climbing metal or glass, one recommendation is to put each bed leg in a tin can the bottom of which is thickly coated with petroleum jelly. Note, however that although bedbugs cannot fly or jump, they have been observed climbing a higher surface in order to then fall to a lower one, such as climbing a wall in order to fall onto a bed. An alternative is to apply double-sided sticky tape (such as carpet tape) around each bed leg, or to keep each leg on a plastic furniture block in a tray of water"


Seems like a good strategy...


Good that we don't have this around here. Our pests are easier to get hid off.




EDIT: Oh, and I read just now that you have to call an specialist who will get you the right inceticide and that spraying random things can just worse the situation - so ask your mom to stop spraying bleach on your room.

Clean your bed more often.
You can't sleep on the same sheet for 2 weeks. You need to change it, keep your room tidy and kill every single bug you see.
That will mean victory.
I haven't changed my sheets in quite some time... I think I'm immune to them or something. :\

Wow. You're housing a couple of bisexual rapists. o.o

Reproduction

All bedbugs mate via a process termed traumatic insemination.[2][3][4] Instead of inserting their genitalia into the female's reproductive tract as is typical in copulation, males instead pierce females with hypodermic genitalia and ejaculate into the body cavity. This form of mating is thought to have evolved as a way for males to overcome female mating resistance.[5][6] Traumatic insemination imposes a cost on females in terms of physical damage and increased risk of infection.[7][8] To reduce these costs females have evolved internal and external "paragenital" structures[7][8] collectively known as the “spermalege”.[2][3][4] Within the True Bugs (Heteroptera) traumatic insemination occurs in the Prostemmatinae (Nabidae) and the Cimicoidea (Anthocoridae, Plokiophilidae, Lyctocoridae, Polyctenidae and Cimicidae), and has recently been discovered in the plant bug genus Coridromius (Miridae).[9]

Remarkably, in the genus Afrocimex both males and females possess functional external paragenitalia, and males have been found with copulatory scars and the ejaculate of other males in their haemolymph. There is a widespread misbelief that males inseminated by other males will in turn pass the sperm of both themselves and their assailants onto females with whom they mate.[10] While it is true that males are known to mate with and inject sperm into other males, there is however no evidence to suggest that this sperm ever fertilizes females inseminated by the victims of such acts.[3]
Wow, scrolled right down to that part, didn't you?

Back on topic: Is your bed brand new? Because a refurbished/used/whatever bed can be home to countless bedbugs. Saw something on the news a while back where they ratted out dozens of refurbished (and one or two "new") bed shops for not properly disinfecting and cleaning beds. Filthy things.

Hire an exterminator to "cleanse" your room/bed/house/whatever, of the little devils.

I knew it! Those bedbug robbers must've suddenly stole it in the middle of the night! You will have to get the CSI to investigate this and take them to court!

(No, really, how and why is it gone suddenly.)
