This morning a friend helped m turn over the box springs of my bed. An earlier inspection of the mattress found no bugs (see below) and todays inspection was also negative however I did find a very small amount of live and dead bugs on the bottom of the box springs. They were very tiny and I tried to squish as many as I could. There weren't that many but one fell on the floor and I was not sure at the point if it was alive or dead. I hope dead. Anyway, the infestation of the bed appears to be minimal at this time. Now I must get to work to stem the invasion. I also hope that this is the only place they are residing.

Just where did these little buggers come from anyway??? (no pun intended) I have never had such a problem in my life prior to this.
