I moved in here on Oct 1st. and at that night, I found one bedbug on the wall first. then I saw several moving them on wall, floor and my packings(they infected so quickly)!!.

I'm sure I have no trouble at previous place and no infected stuff before I moved.
I reported very next day to administration office, but they just ask to write form to call pest control, and nothing help without any report.

So from that day, my fight has began from that day.
I sprayed(not RAID, I bought Liquid type insect killer at Home Depot) every morning and evening to kill them. and sealing all gap in room. wall, floor, window, bathroom... everywhere!.

They were coming from those gap and especially from ventilation area. so many bedbug I killed so far, but they are still there.

in 2 weeks, everyday I sprayed and vacuumed, and washed and dried all clothes. I also bought Japanese Mothball at Chinatown(it was little help to protect my bed from them). now there are looks like reducing. but I cannot have been relieved yet.

At last, I got notice pest control will come tomorrow(had to wait 2 weeks!!). I know it's not enough to kill just once. but I hope it would be little help for my fighting...


I know these days, the bedbug problems are everywhere in Toronto, especially downtown. you cannot choose "Safe" place to live. but I can say and recommend to ask landlord and do self investigation before you move. once you find it, it's so hard to terminate them all...
