Second Hand Vacuum
Where did I get bed bugs?
Would you believe my customer bought a vacuum cleaner at a thrift store and believes that is the source of his present problem?
If you use your vacuum to suck up those blood sucking bed bugs, make sure you throw out the bag in a sealed plastic bag to prevent more contamination. You can also put your vacuum cleaner in the bedroom when you are doing a heat treatment and kill any bed bugs or eggs that may have escaped getting into the bag or are stuck on the filter.
I don’t recommend buying used vacuums after hearing this customer’s experience.
