Get rid of your room mate and keep the bugs, it's more hygienic.

Why would someone not bathe for 2 months? That is disgusting! Your apartment should probably be condemned!!!!

Not bathing may attract more bed bugs but anyone who may care about that would be repelled by the aroma from investigating. I heard of someone who had not bathed in months and the police were called in to see if a dead body was in the house.

Excessive use of ammonia cleaning products brought child welfare investigators because the kids were red eyed in the mornings when they went to school and couldn’t explain why their eyes were bloodshot.

Can't believe there's no maggots in the house. I would have thrown the bastard out after a week.

you won't get bed bugs by not bathing. You'll get them by picking them up and carrying them in on you and on your parcels. Or , you 'll get them by moving into a dwelling that already has them . A young friend of mine moved into the city , only to find out that his apt was rife with bed bugs. He moved out after getting rid of all his furnitiure, and prob most of his clothes.
