This morning I noticed red blotches all down both sides of my torso, from 3mm to 20mm across. They must be quite livid as my colour vision isn’t good. They don’t hurt or itch at all, and I wouldn’t haver known if I hadn’t seen them. Should I burn the house down now ?
Yes, cut your losses!Should I burn the house down now ?
Why the "discretely branded" van. Are people embarrassed about having bugs or are they ashamed that they are killing them.We hired an exterminator who arrived in a "discretely branded" van.
Hah, I assume the former! I doubt most people would give the lives of bloodsucking bugs a second thought!Why the "discretely branded" van. Are people embarrassed about having bugs or are they ashamed that they are killing them.
Yes, same here. I dunno if I feel lucky that I am particularly allergic as I had itchy bites all over and for a long time as it took some effort to get rid of them. My wife and daughter hardly noticed them at all. My daughter still to this day feel like I was just imagining the whole thing, and is angry with me for banishing the neighbour's cat from further visits inside!Some people are more allergic to them then others. I feel lucky I was bad!
OMG! I don't want to hear any more!I had to deal with them once. i had bought some clothes from a garage sale and left them on my bed.
Most annoying thing about that is I've grown up with thrift store stuff, and knew from my grandmother to check seams and everything and immediately wash and dry in heat. I like never go to garage sales, but this was in an upper class area and I didn't give it any thought!OMG! I don't want to hear any more!
Same, my nerves were worn super thin after the whole ordeal so I was pretty much ready for a voluntary stay at the mental hospital! I couldn't sleep because I was afraid of waking up with yet more itchy bites. I wore my socks over my trousers so not to expose any skin.I had such anxiety over those bugs,even though I only saw one adult,and a cluster of baby dots, for so long! I had bruises from scratching and couldn't even see 'bites'. Esp feet, ankles, and arms.
