Bed Bugs! Ewwww!



Recommended Posts

My sister had bed bugs in her apartment in Vegas. They discovered the source as being the person upstairs who traveled out of the country. The apartment complex had to replace all of their furniture and move them to another apartment. They had to get their laundry washed a certain way and I think leave them in black trash bags outside on the patio for awhile. It was crazy!! If you rent you may need to notify somebody, if you own you may want to call your homeowners insurance. I pray it gets resolved quickly and thoroughly!

I have a serious bed bug phobia!! Supposedly there is a sweet musky scent to a room that they are in so at hotels I always sniff around the bed! Haha!

Look into diatomaceous earth. It is completely safe (get food grade from a farm & garden supply). We are in Oklahoma and have used it to kill the terrible flea problem we have this year. We can use it eight on the pets -even eat it (but really why). I think I remember it saying you can use it for bed bugs as well. something to look into.

I know exactly what you mean! When I first discovered that site, I was on it for hours, LOL. Now it's bookmarked and I do not travel without it.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
