Sounds like a plan. I had to look up "neem". We were planning a trip to PEI next month but had to cancel to care for our grandchildren. Now I think I'm really glad we are not going.
Those pests have been on the rise for a couple years and even high-class hotels are not immune.
Borax is very cheap, as Bear pointed out. Around here, it is about 9¢ to 11¢ an ounce. Available at Safeway, Save-on, Walmart, Zellers, Canuck Tire, etc.
It also works on fleas.

Somebody should repackage that stuff, highlight the fact oxyen is a key element and then charge 10X as much.
Oh goody ! Another "pandemic" we haven't had one of those for weeks,I was wondering what to be scared of next,all that unreported crime wasn't really doing it for me,but budbugs,they carry all manner of desease on their great pointed teeth. The horror!!
Two of my grandkids are at day camp this week. They made some stuff called "Goop". I don't know the measurements but it's made from borax, white glue and water. It's a little bit like silly putty. Maybe like a combo of silly putty and play dough. It stays soft and the kids could actually put a straw into it and blow it up like a balloon. They were having a real ball with it.
it hasn't killed a single child in teh country that set the policy, thus it wasn't a factor. But now we have icky things in our homes, I bet policy changes.
But if you miss a couple - back they comeThose pests have been on the rise for a couple years and even high-class hotels are not immune.

Watched a TV News report on this a week or 2 ago - a company in Ontario uses heat - Raises the indoor temperature to a certain degree level and they literally come out of the wood work - When a house / apartment is infested with bed bugs they are everywhere including behind baseboards, little crevices etc.
So to clean your house - top to bottom and get them all is nearly impossible - apartment owners are having to do many infested apartments 4 and 5 times.

CBC News - British Columbia - B.C. university battles bedbugs in dorms
I like the Siberian cure suggested by one poster. When the temperature drops to -30ºC, drain the water pipes in your home, then turn off the heat for two days!
Remember...
"Sleep tight,
Don't let the bedbugs bite!
If you see them on the wall,
Take a spoon and eat them all!"
