Bed bug free now for 118 days. A success story, for now…

with 2 comments

After $2,000…

65 nights on an air mattress

18+ loads of laundry

7 trips to Bed, Bath and Beyond…

5 trips to Home Depot…

2 treatments

4 letters to my landlord…

and lots and lots of sanity

and no guarantees… (slept overnight in the East Village in mid-October and got a definite bed bug bite on my left forearm, but I didn’t get home until 4:00 pm that day, and because of the “bed bug sense” all bedbuggers develop after going through what we go through, I knew it wasn’t from my own apartment)

I’m feeling good these days. So for those of you still on Day 2, Day 8, Day 13… keep plugging on.

The best thing is that, after living through the reality of them, bed bugs aren’t my biggest nightmare anymore.
