erything, and $2000 later, we were ready for the exterminators. The landlady sent her regular exterminator to spray some sort of chemical in the apartment, which killed the bedbugs for a few months. But in July 2010 they came back, although the landlady claimed we "brought them back". We again spent around $2000 to prepare for another spraying and this time the same exterminator was sent back to us. He reluctantly sprayed the entire apartment, which was what I had requested from his boss and again, the bedbugs were gone. We moved in November 2010 as I did not want to experience a re-occurrence of this problem, as I believe the bedbugs were always lying dormant in the wall cracks of the apartment, of which there are many. I just hope the new tenants don't have to suffer through this.
