The Cavaliers stayed at the oldest hotel in Oklahoma City over the weekend

...

Just imagine how freaked out you'd be if you saw friggin' five, big-ass bed bugs just sitting on your pillow," Irving told the media after Monday's loss to the Pistons. "I woke up itching, and I'm just looking around, and I'm like, 'Are you serious right now?' It was 3 a.m., and I was so tired at that point

This bedbug epidemic has slowed down my traveling. It really skeeves me out. I don’t want to carry the things home.

Probably half the world is infested with bedbugs, fleas and other bugs and critters to the point where they are just not an issue any more. We don’t know how good we’ve got it.

My aunt, who lived in a senior centered apartment, wound up with bedbugs. They came in from the apartment next door. Took months to get rid of them. She was 82 at the time and they almost drove her crazy. She actually never recovered all the way from the trauma.
They sprayed, got rid of most of her furniture and stuff, and what was left was ran through a dryer for 30-40 minutes, over and over again.

Dumb question, but can they transmit disease from one host to another? I’ve never had to deal with them so I feel blessed, but I’m just curious.
