bed bugs

The advice for travelers is to inspect bed sheets!

And for the first time at that.

Minnesota didn't make the list this time around - thankfully.

The first thing I do when we arrive at a hotel/motel for a stay is move the bedspread and sheets and check the bed for bugs.  They aren't easy to see either, they are teeny tiny little black specs and they love to travel.  Guaranteed if they're there they'll grab a trip with you home.  Want to know what to do to combat them?  Attend this seminar tonight.

This year saw a rash of bedbug infestations worldwide, but scientists are now saying there might be a way of defending against the vermin. While no one seems immune, the more body hair you have, the less attractive you may be to the bloodsucking little critters. Looks like all the men out waxing their chests may have acted a little too hastily.
