We've been suffering for years, we don't know who they are, if we knew, but we don't know! ))

In general, there are some "insects". At night, they burn in bed and, how should I put it more accurately, "itch". They are not visible (apparently very small), it is not possible to catch them. They are afraid only of hot water with tar soap. And daily change of bed and underwear with washing at 90 degrees. We have been suffering for many years. House cleaning is very thorough. They were treated repeatedly with chemicals both from cans (permethrin and its derivatives, pyrethrum). Please help me determine who these are and how to destroy them! I can't give you a photo, because there is no way to catch them.

Try contacting the Center for Hygiene and Epidemiology in your region. It is more likely to get help in such a matter there.

Yes, a specialist from the sanitary-epidemiological agency has already arrived, put "fog" all over the house, nothing helped.

Tell me what region you are in.

22.06.2023 15:14, Andrey Solovyev

Moscow region.

I don't have any acquaintances in the Moscow region Center for Hygiene and Epidemiology, I will try to ask Moscow specialists and people in other regions, maybe they will tell me something or they will bring it to the Moscow regional ones...

Yes, I have already brought them to the Moscow apartment, apparently. The same thing. A straight plot for a horror movie — an invasion of invisible insects.))

I wrote to a couple of branches to begin with. Let's see what people will say.

We are waiting for an answer, the invasion continues.

So far, only one department has responded. They say that there is a paid survey of the flat/house, but very often no species is found there, so it's not a fact that it's worth it — it's up to you. Plus, they say, if it's a very small thing, you can try to collect them with gluetape and bring them to the nearest department of the Center for Hygiene and Epidemiology, where there are entomologists or similar specialists.

Yeah, the specialist was here but it was no help. But the tape is worth thinking about.
