In the summer of 2009 the people who live across the way from me started complaining of small creatures in their apartment. A few weeks later I saw the same neighbor and she was bitten allover her legs and arms. She was told they were some sort of Bird mite. After Housing came they were told they had bed bugs. They have done everything they could to get rid of these monsters but they still haven’t.
The landlords know that the building has bed bugs and have even moved from the apartment they
once occupied because of the infestation and have sprayed their own apartment several time. Too bad that same courtesy has not been extended to the rest of the tenants.
I have pets so I have been using a number of homeopathic pet friendly ways to keep these things out of my apartment. The Landlords have even asked me for the names of the product I use. I do know that the property management company sprays apartment by apartment after housing and the city is called, but they spray one apartment at a time which doesn’t effectively get rid of the problem, just moves it from one unit to another.
It is now 2011, my apartment does not have these bugs…not to lack of effort but due to vacuuming, dusting, homeopathic products, and tons of laundry. The building still has the bugs, so do the neighbors from 2009.
The property has been turned over so many times and has gone through so many management companies that they either are too busy collecting rent, filling out illegal Pay or Quit notices, or plain just don’t care enough to remedy the problem.

My wife and I have lived here for about 3 years, around May of 2009 we started getting large irregular shaped, burning bites at various hours of the morning and night. After with speaking with the management and several of our neighbors on the 3rd floor, we found that this issue was epidemic in the building. I had caught a living adult bedbug and a small semi-translucent one, allowing my wife to look it up and identify it online. After 5 months of spraying our the floorboards, furniture and wall
s with "Bedlam" bug spray (which worked well for us)and occasionally using Lysol on clothes and blankets- we are now seeing relief. For about two months during the worst of it my wife and I constantly used baby powder to ward them off us at night. Although this didn't work 100% of the time it worked better than nothing at all. One neighbor reported using diatomaceous earth (aka: earthen chalk powder) killed the bugs fairly well along with the use of an alcohol spray. One neighbor on our floor moved out due to the sheer misery of the constant bites. Reports in this building seem to have now (2-05-2010) slowed.

First, in July 2009, other tenants here reported strange bites. Then a scientifically-minded neighbor keyed out online the bug found crawling on her arm & identified it as a bedbug. That neighbor told others who were being bitten what the bugs & bites looked like & how to try to eradicate them.
Mine only showed up this week but seem now to have been nesting in mattress pad folds, throw-pillow edges, & other such places.
Many tenants here have been infested, so the entire building may be,
but I'm not certain. Other local buildings have similar issues. Neighbors slash infested mattresses set on the curbs so they won't be picked up & re-used. It's clearly a problem in this community.
