Hey there,
I found these stains [see pic] on my mattress just after my last guests checked out. I double checked online to make sure it wasn't signs of bed bugs, it doesn't seem like it since the stains are very different than that of the pics online [the ones online show individual circle blood stains and mine looks like more of a spread out stain of a different color], and the one small black bug I did see, looked nothing like any of the bed bugs in the pics online [the ones in the their pics are all red-brown or brown and had specific looking legs], but I'd still like to get a second opinion from you guys. I also did a check of the couch [where the mattress was] and my own bed and there are no stains or any other bugs, eggs/casings anywhere.
Still want someone else to look at this just in case!
I wonder if this is a stain that the guests could have caused? It was a couple, and there was a sheet over the mattress, but I don't know if it's possible that their fluids could have caused the staining somehow? It wasn't like this before they checked in. I also wonder, since the stains are really only on 1 area of the mattress, it's not all over the mattress, what's up with that? I just got this mattress too [it's actually just a mattress pad topper since I use it to make the couch guests sleep on more comfy] and I'm unsure why there would be stains on it so soon.
I also use red sheets, so I don't know if that could have caused the stain?
Thanks!!
