Yeah, there for a while, my house looked like a scene from Supernatural. I had all this white powder protecting every room.

Ewwwww

I stayed in a budget motel once and got bedbug bites. They are itchy, ugly, and last a long time. I’d never thought about them in a vehicle.

"And I didn’t give up on the girl, but she quit responding."

The Ft Worth/Dallas area was ranked last September as #3 in the country for bedbugs. Exceeded only by New York City and Philadelphia.

It would be so easy to get rid of these in Vehicles. All you need is a metal box to hold the car and a heater. Drive the car in and heat the room to 130 degrees for a few hours and then drive out clean.

The Duquesne Incline, a 143-year old cable car and historic Pittsburgh landmark, had to be shut-down and treated for bedbugs over the summer.

One day in a Bakersfield summer...

No more bedbugs in car.

“Why would rideshare vehicles be more prone to bedbugs than taxi’s are?”

my exact question ...
