They Never Left...
Well, just wanted to inform you real quick that Brittany is STILL dealing with bed bugs in her apartment! The first night she got back to college, she woke up with 8 bites on her arm the next morning. BLECH! Things were going alright for a few months, then here we are, again. I am so disgusted, I can't even tell you! Every time she comes home for a visit, I make her leave everything in the garage. Then, I, carefully, transfer her belongings, little by little, into huge Ziploc bags. I take her purse, book bag, tote bags, clothes, shoes into our laundry room and put everything in the dryer on the hottest setting possible. Then, I wash everything in HOT water and all goes back into a HOT dryer. I mean, it is no way to live. The exterminator is going back to treat her room today, so we'll see how that goes. I have a sinking suspicion that this will be an ongoing issue. I have gotten myself pretty worked up over this, as you can surely imagine. Lord, calm my spirit...I can sure use it!

My goodness!!! Do they think someone may be bringing them from HOME back to school???? EGADS!!!
Oh dear. I hope they get it corrected soon!
How horrifying!
When I was growing up and my mom would say, "Good night! Sleep tight! Don't let the bed bugs bite!" I never knew that those things were once a real issue until I question her about it once.
Then when I started hearing about them showing up in hotels a few years back, I was completely freaked out and now check the corners of mattress before I'll sleep on a hotel bed.
I can understand why you are so upset. Is she living on campus? I hope the problem is solved soon!
My Ashley has a problem with mice! Not sure which is worse.
I hope that they can get rid of them. I've read they hide behind baseboards, in carpet, and every nook and cranny. Have a good evening.
That is horrible! I wouldn't know how to handle this either except to do what you're doing! Your poor daughter! And I can't wait to see the new cabinet! Your husband looks so happy eating covered in dust and you taking his picture! So cute! Hope you had a nice Thursday!
Oh, April~ that is awful! I would be just as upset as you are!
Bless your heart - and Brittany's too! Horrible! So sorry you are having to deal with this. Hopefully it will be better after this treatment.
I hope the problem is solved soon!
That does not sound good! I hope the problem goes away soon and fast, never to come back.

Oh man I feel for you/her!
Seems like at the very least you should be getting a rent adjustment for the trauma of it all!
I just can not imagine it! Poor thing.
How awful! I pray this gets resolved soon!
That is just awful! I hope they get them taken care of soon!
This is unbelievable. Can you get here moved somewhere else. You should not have to go through this everytime she comes home and she should not have to live with them.
Good gravy -- they need to treat the whole dorm. Her room alone won't be enough!
