It’s been about 2-3 days since I first noticed these itchy red bumps around my leg/ankle area and noticed that they slowly transformed into looking like a redder pimple shape. Is this indicative of the bite being from BB?

Found some reddish-brown-black specks in this opening in the seams of my box mattress. Was wondering if this could be related to BB?
Woke up with these up and around my ankles being itchy yesterday. No clear exposure pathway I can think of besides flying, apartment tours, and moving into a new apartment 3 weeks ago but this is something that I’m concerned about.
I also have history of folliculitis and keratosis pilaris. These bumps itch whenever I touch them but don’t really itch when I don’t. I feel like these have looked and behaved a bit differently from my past folliculitis but not totally sure.

This is on the bedroom wall. The other side is the living room. Can’t tell if it’s mold or ghosting
Found this in my kitchen at 1am. Never seen roaches here before, but wanted to get your advice! Already purchased Advion gel as well just in case.
Found this small cockroach in the kitchen. Never seen one indoors in the house before and just bought some Advion gel just in case.
I suspect mold in my apartment unit and found these little fuzzy pieces in the edges of my electrical panel/air handling unit. Can anyone advise?
Just moved into a new apartment and found black spots in the vent right above my bedroom/bathroom door. I have a fear of mold, does this look like mold to you all?
I moved into a new US-CA apartment a couple weeks ago built in the early 60s and with very friable popcorn ceilings. I was stupid and touched the popcorn ceiling and bits and pieces (maybe a total of 4-5 inches worth) easily crumbled off onto the clothes I was wearing, bedding, etc.
I since then decided to move apartments (due to other problems as well) and will be moving next week. However, I am scared that everything in my room is contaminated due to potential asbestos exposure. I am especially concerned about my bedding due to the fact that I have worn the same shirt ever since and slept in it due to fears of contaminating other shirts.
I am concerned about the volume of residual asbestos fibers that settled onto my belongings, and if it will cause continuous exposure even at my next apartment.
What’s the max volume of asbestos fibers that could be on my belongings that I’ll be continually exposed to? Is it substantially different than everyday exposure? I’m pretty paranoid right now.
If anyone could provide any insight, that’d be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Just moved into an apartment (US-CA) last week built sometime in the 50s. Long story, but I stupidly decided to touch the popcorn ceiling in my bedroom and bits and pieces immediately fell off. While I’m not too concerned about this one-time exposure, I’m concerned about the ceiling being friable since it fell off so easily. I can also notice some debris on the floor of my apartment, although I’m not sure if it’s from the popcorn ceiling or paint (due to the texture, it’s probably both). I also noticed there’s a hole drilled into the popcorn ceiling (as shown in the picture), not sure when it was drilled and how that relates to potential asbestos exposure but it’s there.
My landlord was able to offer me to move out of the apartment, but it’s a good deal and moving would be a big hassle and I’d have to find another place and move out asap, but my health is my number one priority. He said I needed to get back to him with a decision by the end of the week.
Is a friable popcorn ceiling that could potentially be shedding dangerous for health long term? I seriously don’t know what to do and am totally stressed out. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
