Oh Sue, I'm so sorry to hear that for your friends.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Nicole could use some 'ma about now.
It's not something in addition to Bailey, I hope.
No, just that. Well, just isn't the word. But I realized folks around here maybe didn't know.
Bailey?
That is definitely more than enough, yes.
eta: Bailey=Nicole's dog.
Sue, that's unbelievably horrible. Those poor people.
And....mac came in at 4:30 which led to me....seeing a bed bug. Guess I know what I'll be doing today, laundry, plastic bags, contacting the management company (to see who calls the exterminator and to make sure they send out a notice), mattress encasement, more laundry. Maybe Home Depot to get shelves for the storage area, since I think I'll be needing to shift a bunch of stuff down there.
I've already pulled the down comforter off since that is where I saw them and have it in a plastic bag.
Oh god, msbelle, like you needed more stress and work in your home life.
right?
Anyhoo, I found a highly recommended exterminator on a bedbug forum, already called them and much to my surprise the guy picked up and will be getting back to me today with some instructions.
Apparently I should not wash too much before an inspection. mac's bed has been in plastic covering and it shows no signs, so hopefully his bed is free.
I just want to run the vacuum everywhere RIGHT NOW (seal up the bag and toss it), also start the laundry, and shower (I know not helpful). WHat I do not want to do is think about how much money this is all gonna cost.
ok, off to email the management company.
I have no idea if homeowner's insurance would cover it, but it's worth a check, anyway. Or maybe the co-op has some insurance?
