Bug-a-boo

Okay, I shall take my OCD to the next level now...you just never know when the critters will creep up on you really, but they are affecting people pretty close to me. I was horrified about the latest saga of discovering I may be displaced from where I live due to that tiny speck of dust that could turn out to be one's worst nightmare..the humble bedbug. Thankfully...it glossed over me...I say this loftily, mostly due to my OCD tendencies...I am a bit I'd say, but not OTT. Either that or it is divine
intervention that I have escaped.
The mini vampires are not indicative of cleaniliness levels I have read...whew that is a relief...it could literally happen to anyone. Luggage is one way!  I won't become more paranoid now...I won't become more paranoid now...what I mean to say is I shouldn't become more paranoid now...I mean I come across luggage almost everyday, and doing the mad skip and dance to avoid that hurried traveller from brushing their luggage against me as they haul it onto the Picadilly line on their way to, or from, Heathrow, is exhausting. I can't exactly burn my clothes everday either. I'd need loads of bucks to buy a new outfit everyday...hmmm, that would be nice!
  Naturally prevention is better than cure, but fumigation is essential once they are in, that and throwing out everything(well within reason) and washing on 60 degrees celcius...I wanted to try 90 degrees, but the darn washing machine wouldn't allow me to go off the charts.
 I am trying to read extensively on preventive measures anyway; sprinkling crystal silica gel on the floor, cleaning products with tea tree oil...I best go and run out and get some!
