IDK if anyone would have any idea about this, but figured it's worth a shot...
My wife is suffering from bug bites. Every day it seems she gets a few more. They behave basically like mosquito bites and are really itchy.
Now, the strange part: I have no idea what bugs could actually be biting her. My wife rarely leaves the house and in fact spends the majority of each day in bed due to chronic health problems. Of course I share the same bed with her and have not been bitten at all. So that would seem to rule out bedbugs. In fact, neither me nor my kids have had any problems with bug bites. I've not seen a single mosquito anywhere in the house, or really any bug at all aside from the occasional ant; and after leaving out ant poison I haven't seen any of them for a week or so.
BTW, I live in Wisconsin. So, any idea what sort of (apparently invisible and highly discriminating) bugs could be doing the biting?

Love. Forgive. Trust. Be willing to be broken that you may be remade.
Is there a couch, chair, lazy boy, ect. on which only your wife spends most of her time and no one else does? The bites could still be coming from bed bugs if that's the case.
Talk to your doctor, they could help, as it could be allergies.
Is your wife under a great deal of stress lately? My wife got stress hives while she was in medical school and still gets them occasionally. They seem a lot like bug bites.

She hasn't been under more stress than usual, though she did decide to take some benadryl last night since nothing else was helping much and it did seem effective. So yeah, maybe it's allergies. She'll have a doctor's appointment soon and we can ask him if it's still happening. Thanks.

On a related note: when did it start? Did your wife change her habits or came into contact with new or different objects? A change of smell (e.g. a different soap) can be enough to start attracting insects.
Bed bugs are tiny insects which can make your life miserable. Therefore always keep your home and surroundings clean and sanitized to avoid pest infestation.
