FlaxSeedsScareMe on "Saw live BB while cleaning after treatment"

Hi. OK. So, I'm new to the forum but I've been reading a lot. I was treated 2 months ago for a "light infestation," and the PCO came five times to dust/spray. It's been little over two weeks since the last true sign (no bugs, no stains, no bites; and we both are reactive). Tonight, I was finally ready to mop up some of the dust (it's all over the floor from where it fell under the bed-- we have slats). I left the dust in all the baseboards, on the bed frame, back of the dresser, etc. I merely wanted to mop the floor so we can start letting the cats sleep with us (it's been 2 months and we all miss each other terribly!). Anyway, I found a live BB dangling from a cobweb under the bookcase (not a spiderweb; just a bunch of dust and cat hair caught in the corner). It was not fed, and it was not an adult (it was white/clear and very, very flat; it was probably the last stage before adult because it was pretty big). It kind of freaked me out to see it moving, so I didn't get a picture. Anyway-- I'm thinking/hoping that it's been caught in there for a long time since we haven't had any signs in about 17 days. Would that be possible? Or are they able to escape cobwebs?

I should mention that I haven't put any bags away or anything. This was the very beginning of my cleaning. And a passive BB monitor is on the way. I plan on getting that first before considering myself truly clear!

Thanks in advance!
