I had em, powder didn’t work. Don’t remember if I was using diatomaceous earth, poison or both. It got to the point where I didn’t know if I was itching because of the powder, the bugs or my head. Eventually I washed all my clothes in the bathtub in really hot water - and that’s the first time I saw them. I realized they were prob living in a bag of mine that I had at the hotel I was at when I got them. Threw that in a hot bathtub. Washed all my clothes - left the bag outside for 1 Wisconsin winter. Problem eventually resolved. Didn’t need to get a heat treatment - just very thoroughly “boiled” them myself. But fast forward a few months, I had to go on another trip. When I reached my hotel and unpacked, I saw that I had a lot of slow moving bugs in the bag. Idk if they were eggs initially or what, but they survived an entire winter of very cold weather. Needless to say, I immediately gave the bag a hot bath and there were pretty heavy casualties. I think it was contained bc I think they were still coming out of some sort of dormant state and unable to scurry away.
