Question:

Bed bug question!?

I don't have bed bugs but my mom said you can have bed bugs if you have your bed laying on the floor because it has no air is how she said it. because since your bed is touching carpet, it can get bed bugs. is that true?

Answer:

I don't think that's true. Fleas live in carpets but bedbugs aren't like that (I think. Could be wrong).
bed bugs hide where the floor and wall meet. Then at night they climb into bed with you,
Bed bugs can hitch a ride on your belongings or be carried by bats/birds. They usually hide close to the bed (as the name implies) but sometimes spread to other areas. They are most likely to be found in rooms where a lot of people sleep, or near warmth. I've never heard about a mattress touching the floor attracting bed begs in particular. They tend to hide under the sheets and mattress itself, not in the carpet, so I don't think you have much to worry about.
you know you got bedbugs, otherwise, you wouldn't be worried about it
