The bugs had probably saturated the mattress, boxspring, headboard, and frame by that point. The radio was their overflow zone.
What kind of research is Rutgers doing for bedbugs?
-
Heat, tight space close to you ... next meal
-
With all the other places to hide why do you think in a radio - heat, vibration???

@RutgersEntomology Yes, it's hard to argue the point with all the obvious bed bug eggs,etc, but I just thought it looked like the litte fellow had tent-like wings as it was running past the wire.

They are bed bugs but in the first stages of development. Thats why they are yellowish in color and EXTREMELY tiny.
-
The music that is playing is actually coming from the radio. It was incredible.
-
silly question maybe but was the radio in working condition or was it dead and just laying there?
-
A few white clusters of eggs can be seen at bottom left of the radio cover (around 0:16).

According to our researcher, there was no bed in the room where the resident slept and the radio was beside the blankets on the floor.
