I lived in Benjamin Arms for six months from 2006 to 2007. My boyfriend and I noticed small bites on our ankles and thought they were fleas. One morning, I woke up and saw a large bed bug crawling on my comforter.

I immediately went to the assistant manager, who lied about the infestation. THEN ADMITTED that he had bedbugs in his apartment. That the manager had bedbugs in his apartment! That my neighbor had bedbugs in his apartment......Then, the assistant manager advised me to keep this quiet...that I didn't know what kind of people I was dealing with.

I LOST EVERYTHING! I threw everything away....I did not live in the apartment for over a month while I found another place to live. THANK GOD the bedbugs did not come with me. It WAS A NIGHTMARE!

I lived in this apartment complex for a year. After about 7 months, in June/July of 2007, I started noticing bumps on my skin that I figured were spider bites. They would take weeks to disappear, were incredibly itchy, and I was absolutely lost as to where they were coming from. I hadn\'t seen any spiders at all. After someone tipped me off to the bed bug problems in the Tenderloin I decided to do some research. Eventually I woke up one night and found one biting me. It freaked me out. I didn\'t know what to do. I found more in my pillow case and on the comforter. I stopped spending as much time in my apartment and stayed with my boyfriend. On nights he was out of town I would stay up all night, hoping they wouldn\'t bite me. When I did drift off, I would awake suddenly and check myself for bed bugs.

I decided to throw it all away and move.

I don\'t doubt they are still lurking in the apartment.
