It’s not just Paris. There’s a "global resurgence" of bedbugs.

It’s a bedbug’s world now. We’re just sleeping in it.

As someone who's had bedbugs multiple times... Yes it's very much worth throwing away your entire wardrobe if you have to. Do everything you can to prevent getting them.
Yup. Had em 3-4x in this very apartment. First day we discovered them I was hauling my box spring the fuck outside and dumping it by the trash downstairs at 3am while my wife was panicking.
Thankfully been several years since I've seen em and I aim to keep it that way.
The first time it happened, I remember killing everything with fire. I even slept on a plastic covered mattress and did daily vacuuming for like two months. Even worse, the bug bites caused my cat to be extra irritated, forcing him to clean himself nonstop from all the bites and having us lock him out of the bedroom else he go through another "obsessive bite cycle".
It was near impossible since the neighbors didn't care and solved it by moving.
I don't recommend it at all.
