I was always told to never ever buy a second hand mattress and I'm the same an inflatable one would be better than second hand. My parents didn't have a lot of money when I was young so our holidays were camping trips and I had a blow up mattress and it was nice and comfortable.
I’ve stopped renting things from Rent-A-Center and started buying in full from furniture stores. RAC delivered a bedbug infested couch and didn’t want to give me my money back. I tried calling the health department but they didn’t do anything. It should be illegal to sell and rent infested furniture.
Wowwwwww was it a new couch or a pre-owned one from RAC? This is why I've been hesitant with even buying furniture from Facebook Marketplace even if it looks nice. 🥴
Ethically and morally sound Very sorry to hear that they are not being required to. Impose fines or something. With the real world level gravitas. Idk but it would be perfectly good and legal and totally fine to write a scathing. Short. For your local. Bulletin boards. And face no penalty as their business practices. Visa vi the level of corporate servitude. In regards to how we the consuming public must endure or tolerate. The welts and boils of. These folks.
There's people who get returned trial mattresses, sterilized and cleans them then resells them. I got a dreamcloud this way, saved hundreds and no bedbugs to this day
At least it was only one person sleeping on it. A hotel bed has hundreds of people sleeping on it. Most hotels don't even wash the blankets unless there's visible dirt on them.
When I was a kid my dad bought a couch from a second hand store and it seemed fine until a week or weeks later that we started to smell pee on it! We felt very sure that it wasn't our cats but who knows.
Big bed bugs travel. It doesn't mean they were born in that bed and grew up there. So that wouldn't be evidence to prove how long they have been there. Either the father was lying, the son never said anything or he didn't have bed bugs there. If there were bed bugs trust me they would let you know they are there. The bugs that is.
Another thing is men have tougher/thicker skin so he might not realize he has them, they are quick and sly. Women however have a thinner epidermis and their bites show up a lot more!
I had someone visit and spend a night in my home- I found 3 bed bugs when I went to make the bed a day after they left. Cleaned , sprayed vacuumed. Washed ALL the linens etc
I moved into a new place and I was about to buy used furniture to save a couple bucks. But just thinking about buying infested furniture would completely ruin all my belongings and paying even more. Nah, I'll just pay the extra 400 for something new and be done 😊
My poor mom spent so much when my niece spent the night and brought them. I think it was war for a whole year! We all became experts on prevention. Including lining my hamper with a trash bag lol.
@coffeeaddictexpress5038 your mom hung the wash out to dry, I bet. Heat or cold kills them. The washing machine is just a water park for them. 20 minutes above 120 degrees or 20 days below 32 degrees kills them.
As someone who dealt with this recently.... definitely don't buy used furniture, clothes, bedding... anything that could carry them into your home. I had never bought used pillows or bedding, but I did sometimes buy secondhand clothing. I believe this is how I ended up with those little demons in my house. All it takes is one shirt with some eggs on it to bring them into your home. Doesn't even have to be a full bug, the eggs will hatch and then you have a problem. Same with bedding, rugs, mattresses, furniture etc. I learned my lesson and will spend the extra money to buy these things new from now on. It's expensive to treat them and they are hard to get rid of even after you do. They are persistent and will re-hatch if you don't get rid of them all at once.
@PowerDiva Actually, no. I acquired the little buggers from a surgery center. The exterminator said it's very common to get them at doctors' offices. My eye Dr had a patient bring them into the clinic and they had to haul a chair out to the dumpster because it was infested.
One, the plaintiff couldn't provide any proof that the bed she bought contained bed bugs. Two, she couldn't keep her story straight as to when she purchased the bed from the defendant. Three, she waited too long to go to the doctor to get checked out. Yep, no brainer here.
Never get used furniture. Especially if you arent going to fully inspect it first. And then ALWAYS get a bedbug mattress protector. Also remember that bed bugs are called hitchhikers. You dont have to be dirty to get them. If you are near one, it can get to you. And all it takes it one to fuck up your home.
Stuff like this is why I refuse to buy used stuff . I'm moving into a apartment next week and my friends keep telling me to look for furniture on Facebook marketplace nope this is my exact fear 😂
It's not that deep! Normal people usually furnish their new place little at a time. You need a bed and tv your first night at most. Take your time and shop around for furniture and decorate as you go.
JJ ruled correctly. There's no guarantee when you buy from a private party unless you get it in writing. Bed bugs are slow moving, she should have been able to treat immediately to remedy. Tbh if her house flooded and ppl were in her home repairing it, they could have brought them in
The thing is with bed bugs is that people don't realize they have them until an infestation happens. At this point it is too late and need to look into treatment options that will cost a lot of money to treat. But knowing you are buying used furniture, she should have taken more precautions in checking the furniture before bringing it into her home.
Just and FYI: Bed bugs take up residence throughout a home - not just mattresses. They are in/on couches, chairs, dressers, carpeting, suitcases, in cars, trucks and on public transportations etc.
@@margaretwade They are also incredibly smart and notice if there are any pesticides or powders in the air. They will hide in picture frames, plug outlets, creases and cracks in the walls and floors, and even electronics like DVD players, clocks, etc... You are right that they are not always in mattresses. They just need to be a few feet away from their food source.
It's possible the defendants family do not react to bedbugs. I once accidentally stayed in a hotel room crawling with them. My husband looked eaten alive but I showed no signs. We had to get completely undressed and have our baggage and bags professionally cleaned and sealed in plastic for 2 weeks. We were lucky my husband had such a bad reaction or we might have brought them home.
I feel for her so bad, I’ve dealt with bed bugs 3 times, and all 3 times came from someone else, it’s the most mentally draining experience you can ever deal with 😩
No way of knowing how the bugs got in there, whether through his stuff or her own or anyone else that entered her house. I grew up hearing the saying about not letting the bedbugs bite, but I really didn't know what they were or whether they even existed until about 20 years ago, and now we hear about them all the time.
@@jodikristine956 You’re not actually eating something called a “Flanigan”, or … are you? And if you are, what is a “Flanigan”? Or, you’re at a restaurant called “Flanigans” and I’ve never heard of it and am suddenly wondering where it’s located?
If the bedbugs are obviously visible in the back of the headboard, it seems unlikely that the guy didn't see it when taking the bed apart. Surely they'd crawl allover his hands
@@Jesusluvme Not true. Bed bugs are fully capable of feeding during the day. If an infestation is bad enough, a person can encounter them all hours of the day.
People saying they will never use a used mattress, do you forget that when you go on holiday and stay at a hotel you use a used mattress, where so many people have slept on and done things 👀😅 and majority of the time hotels don't clean their mattresses
She clearly didn't have insurance because she wouldn't have called him looking for a deal. I would have furniture trucks from every major company pulling up in front of my house after an insurance claim. 😂😂
You would be surprised how many people will buy used mattresses if they don't have a bed. I put a free headboard on Craig's list, and so many asked for the mattress.
Used furniture is great, but I’d not buy a used mattress now (I’m old and have options) because of issues like this. Still, she had no evidence of any bed bug infestation.
I've been dealing with these awful things for SIX MONTHS now thanks to a skanky person who moved into my apartment complex. The person had put a mattress and bedroom furniture on their front porch and just left it there, then a few weeks later myself and several other neighbors suddenly had infestations. Had exterminators treat it, bought the same chemicals professionals use to spray, threw stuff out, vacuum and do laundry constantly, etc. and these things STILL keep turning up. Sometimes after a treatment you won't see any for a month or so, then they miraculously start showing up again.
I was impressed with plaintiff's style of speaking in the courtroom until her doctor visit story. Before that she was just no nonsense and only the facts. Perhaps she would have done well as a lawyer!
"My grandson's step grandfather"??...I had to pause it just to think about what that means LMAO I have never heard someone be called a step-grandfather before! 🤣If she's the grandmother then would the step grandfather be her current or ex-husband or is he on the other side of the family? 🤔😆
I once had an episode with bedbugs!! TOTAL NIGHTMARE!! Rented a studio, 3 days later..100 of bites!! Landlord came over and sprayed my bed room with 3 different kinds of RAID bug killer. Phew, only left with my clothes ( can wash in hot water n kill them). Other things can carry their eggs!! A week or 2 later while walking my dog, saw my so called neighbors/friends carry ing out my plants etc and tried later to talk to me like nothing happened. Those conversations did not go well.
Everyone freaking out at the idea of getting a used mattress-- don't you ever sleep in hotels? Or at friends' houses? Hate to break it to you, but someone used that mattress before you.
My grandmother bought a couch from Aaron's. I have it now. No bedbugs! I got a recliner/rocker from Rent-a-Center last year and no bugs! There's nothing wrong with having second-hand furniture. It's no different from sitting in a chair or sleeping in a bed at a Hilton Hotel.
The question not asked was: "Where did you sleep in the days following the flood and before you bought the mattress?" She could have gotten bed bugs from there. Plus, she was sketchy about how long it took her to tell the defendant.
JuJu: Did you see a doctor? Plaintiff: One of my clients is a doctor. Me: Her friend whose hair she occasionally cuts is a doctor and looked at her bug bites and was like, "Yeah, those suck." JuJu: Do you have a report from that doctor? Plaintiff: .................no.
Rather buy an inflatable mattress before I buy a used one..🤢
Must admit, I wouldn't be overly keen on sleeping on a secondhand mattress either. 🤢🤮
Some infaltable matreeses are very comfortable.
Yeah rather get a cheap $200 mattress.
I was always told to never ever buy a second hand mattress and I'm the same an inflatable one would be better than second hand. My parents didn't have a lot of money when I was young so our holidays were camping trips and I had a blow up mattress and it was nice and comfortable.

I mean NEVER EVERRRRR

I wouldn’t trust a mattress from a stranger but I might from a close friend or family member lol I feel so bad for her
"It isn't what you think, it is what you can prove in a court of law." JJ's lesson of the day for future litigants.
There are just some things that you don’t buy used - mattresses, underwear, makeup. Yuck. 🤢
HELPPPP
Who in their right mind buys a used bed.
If it's from someone you know whose house you would feel comfortable sleeping at, why not? Don't you ever sleep over at friends or family's houses?
Not everyone can afford new items
I have my mom's old bed. A bed is a bed.
There's people who get returned trial mattresses, sterilized and cleans them then resells them. I got a dreamcloud this way, saved hundreds and no bedbugs to this day
Mmmhmmm. Even a king size mattress is only like 1200. Just save up
Used matresses......yikes?
🤦🏾♀️
Whenever I think of a used mattress I just think of how many people have had sex on it and then that reminds me never to buy a used mattress😂
@@JacobConkin That is how i feel about hotel beds.

"Just a second, just a second. What you think is not relevant." 😂
Never buy used beds and furniture. No diss to JJ but that’s true. Big bedbugs are an indication of how long they’ve been there
Heck, I wouldn't even take furniture that was left with a free sign on the sidewalk. For all I know, the furniture could contain termites.
When I was a kid my dad bought a couch from a second hand store and it seemed fine until a week or weeks later that we started to smell pee on it! We felt very sure that it wasn't our cats but who knows.
