Thanks Chrissy and Ann. I've found the casings too. Yucky! This weekend its WAR! I'm going to put a little pyrethrin inside the joints of the bed and along/inside the baseboards. Will try the sticky tape and glue boards under the bed legs too. I'll put a bit of masking tape on the bottom of the bed legs (its brand new!) so they are not ruined by the sticky glue. Have also been reading that lavender oil repels them so will try a little in my laundry and where the bedding is stored.

I have bad reactions to pesticides so I'm going to try the other methods described in this forum: vacumming and changing the sheets every day (this will be fun) and the many, many helpful things mentioned to get rid of the suckers.

Wish me luck! Same to you.
