    Dear Sirs, I have a bed bug problem, which I caught just in the nick of time (meaning I don't think there's infestation yet). A month ago my mother passed, and we had several relatives over to visit that were staying at various hotels, even one that lived in a hotel in Kansas City, Mo. Two weeks ago I discovered them on my mattress in my bedroom, but nowhere else im my three bedroom apartment. I threw my 8 year old mattress and box spring out, and immediately ordered another set. I was horrified when I continued to see bed bugs on my new bedroom set, and bought some chemical insecticide called Crack and Crevice III with Phenothrin. Will this work? Please give me some advice for a good product to use or a good remedy, so I can return to my bedroom and sleep in peace, I'm tried of being bitten. Thank you.
