    I hate the thought of those!!! It creeps me out to no end and we are traveling to Mass. in a few weeks. Hope the place is still clean.

    On a side note, when I was in like 5th grade I came home with a case of scabbies. Now that is disgusting. My mother is a fanatic cleaner and we picked it up someplace. We washed EVERYTHING! It itched to no end. I'm not sure who got it first in the family but, I'm glad it was treatible.

    i've been reading about them alot. it has been said to be the worst outbreak since WWII !!! They say the only thing that can kill them is DDT which was banned way back when.....I also read that you don't have to be "dirty" to get them. But they are all over the US. Be careful because you can bring them home on your new clothes. A friend had them. I told her any kind of detergent with lavender in it seems to do the trick i had some ...yes... and i tried the lavender and i haven't seen ANY in 3 weeks !!! So i have a spray bottle with lavender detergent in it and every other day i strip the bed and spray it and it seems to work. There is good news though the critters don't spread disease....but it is gross !!!
