Which floors/apts were infested? Which floors/apts were treated?

I recently moved away from 1364 W 11th Ave. A few months ago I found a few small bugs that I though were tick just after my girlfriend came home from a cabin trip. We looked up images on google when we found a third one and found it was a bed bug. My girlfriend was reacting badly to what must have been the bites cause she had red hives. I put 99% rubbing alcohol on the bug we found and it dies (making a cracking sound, like rice krispies. We cleaned all our bedding and I put alcohol in a spray bottle and prayed down the base board board, bed frame, her bags, and other corner where they might have been hiding. I know we killed them all because she never had the hive reaction to the bites again.

Until reading this article, I always assumed that they had come home with her from the cabin. Clearly, I was wrong.

99% rubbing alcohol worked very well! I never found any bugs living in soft things like blankets or pillows. I found them in cracks on the wood of our bed frame and between the boards. I crushed the second one i found in my fingers, which was my clue that it wasn't a tick (the first I just put in the toilet cause I didn't have anything strong enough to kill a tick handy). I killed the other 10 i found by putting alcohol on them, and I must have killed their eggs too cause they didn't come back.

989 Nelson Street
I am aware of two suites on two different floors with bedbugs (4th floor and 16th floor).

RE: 1364 West 11th Ave Vancouver
Had my apartment sprayed 3 times and the bugs are still there. Ended up having to move out.
Landlord did compensate me.

There are some issues with this building that you should be aware of. The landlord doesn't fix things and there are bedbugs. There was flooding awhile back that took him weeks to fix, I have been waiting for over 2 months for him to put an overhead light in my kitchen, and I have had my apartment fumigated 3 times for bedbugs and am still waiting for compensation. I find it hard to believe that the bedbugs stop at my door. Save yourself. Don't move here
