White Specks On Bed Sheet.

[EEZABLADE32]

Just bought a dark blue bed sheet and found white specks. Washed it and used it again, same thing. Clean them off and vacuum every morning but they reappear. Have used Dust Mite spray, but no help. Wondering if anyone else has had this. Also is there anywhere to get them tested?

Thx

Could it be skin flakes, something akin to dandruff?

Thx, wondering that myself.

When the sheets are clean, lean over the bed and comb your hair over them and see what you get.

Thx, tried that and wasn't the cause. Now noticed dead bug so now I know there's an infestation. Need to try a few things before calling somebody in.

You'll find something on Amazon that should sort it out for you I hope. Good luck.

If you've got bedbugs you will usually find red and/or brown spots on the sheets and the bugs themselves are brown, orange or red.  You'd certainly have bites that itch.  The eggs are white - have you looked at pictures of them online?

If I had bedbugs I would call the professionals in.  This year I had an infestation of carpet beetle and was able to eradicate it myself but bedbugs are a different kettle of bugs
