Bed Bugs Update

Re: Bed Bugs Update

  • WOW! That is sooooo much work. I really feel for you! Looks like you are really being on top of it though, so that's good. Sorry!!!

    You might need one of these Left Hug ....or maybe just a few of these DrinksDrinksDrinks and maybe some cake Cake

  • Yikes! That's way worse than I imagined it would be! Again, I'm so sorry you guys are having to deal with this.
  • Ugh! Again, I'm sooo sorry you guys have to deal with this. 

    And I agree with Kinmir - you deserve all those emoticons.

    Can there be any upside to this? With new bedding, etc. in the master bedroom, could it be a redecorating project? (looking for a light at the end of the tunnel!)

  • I would love it to be a reason to redocorate.  But, I started and will probably have to throw away some pretty new things and I don't have a redocrating budget right now.  It may also be reason to buy new clothes, but again, no budget for that right now!

    I think you guys are right...bout to go take care of some wine...too bad there's no cake here!

    Dang girl you thought of everything! Good call on the double sided tape. That's painful to have to throw out new things but I guess it must be done. I guess they don't die even if you wash stuff huh? Good luck and keep us posted on Bed Bug Gate 2012

    I will wash some things -- extreme heat kills them.  But I bought a bunch of decorative pillows and I don't know how to save those.  Or our down comforter (although that's pretty old).  DH keeps his shoes under the bed, so he threw most of them away.

  • Would several cycles in the dryer kill them?

  • i've dried my old down comforter several times. you lose feathers, but oh well. mine is old, and my dog peed on it a few years ago. i wanted to use the dryer! it didn't shrink or anything...just lost some feathers.. maybe you can try this before throwing it away?

    Thanks.  But, my dad has 2 and I borrowed them, just haven't gotten everything cleared out enough to use it yet.
