Sleep Tight
The lights are dimmed. Barry White tunes echo in the background while wine and strawberries sit next to the bear skin rug. The fireplace flickers as the flames passionately dance in the fire of love. This night will be full of craze and sexual desire with the possibility of cooked breakfast in the morning looking really good.
For the parents out there:
The nightlights have created a glowing haze, cartoons echo in the background. Your kids whine as food and stuffed animals are picked up in the living room before bedtime. Parents naturally intertwine past each other as each one puts a kid to bed. This night was full of craze and our strongest desire, to put the kids in bed at a decent time. The possibilities of cereal in the morning…well it depends if we have milk.
If I added lingerie and biting together in the above paragraphs I could really get something kinky going, but this is a pest control blog. The only thing that has been biting you while in your lingerie is those nasty little bed bugs. For the past five years the bed bug epidemic has been sweeping our nation. Recently a Victoria Secret boutique in New York City found bed bugs roaming their store. This bed bug epidemic started out in trains, planes and automobiles. Moving from our transportation, bed bugs have then settled in hotels, movie theaters, and even homes. I think we all draw the line when these bacteria carrying bugs enter into our sex life. It goes beyond Victoria Secret; other retailers have been documented cases of a bed bug invasion. Hollister and Abercrombie and Fitch have had their share of this epidemic. It’s all making sense to me now, those A&F models weren’t wrestling naked! They where stripping each others clothes off because of bed bugs. I guess they had to ship all the clothes off to be cleaned during those photo shoots! Oh, come on Abercrombie. You know I’m just kidding. You can still call me Abercrombie and I will take care of your pesky bed bug situation.
Here are some tips to a bed bug free shopping spree:
- When trying on clothes look for a dark red rust stain that is about the size of a ball point pen tip. This is the first thing professionals look for, as it is the tell tale sign of the blood spots left by feeding bugs.
- Inspect every piece of clothing, even if the clothing has come out of the box. Other signs of bed bugs are white sticky eggs attached to the fabric, an old exoskeleton left behind, and/or any bugs crawling around.
- Hang your personal clothing on a hanger and do not set them down on the bench or floor. (I hope you don’t ever put your clothing on the floor at any public place).
- When in a changing room look around baseboards, wall sockets and mirrors. They will gather there until it is time to feast.
- Keep the clothing in the store bag, tied and sealed. In case they only have paper bags, bring your own plastic bags. Shake clothing out in the parking lot and not around your home. Place items in the washing machine when you get home.
- If you think that bed bugs might have invaded your home contact a licensed profession for an inspection.
If you take these steps when shopping; you will have a bed bug free home. I believe your partner would be happy that it was you biting than a bug biting. For the men over 25, I believe your partner would be happy if you just stayed out of A&F clothing. Just advice to make everyone happy.
