Help!!
My friend got a bed from her MIL for her 2yo son. The bed and mattress was infested with bed bugs, she didn't know that it was the mattress (he has a skin sensitivity) or something else, which was bed bugs. She never had this problem and let me tell you, her house is spotless every time I went over. She's getting the bed bug bombs and I'll be helping her tomorrow with everything. What are some things that we could do before we bomb the house? What are some tips?
I unknowingly moved into an apartment infested with them. We did 5 treatments before they cooked my apartment with a giant heater- heat is really the only thing to ensure they're all dead. We then tossed he mattresses, got new ones with special covers for them, and had to wash and dry all of our clothing & blankets on hot. Good luck.
Lol! I'm taking every precaution. I had to deal with it once at my apartment because we weren't told that an old tenant had bed bugs and when maintenance did the bombs, they all went to almost every apartment in the building. We also do the flea bombs once every two-three months at my new house cause my MIL is crazy lol we crank the heat up all the way after 4 hours, and then the next four we wait it out and go back into the house without the animals and kids and sweep and mop after wards and wipe everything down.
You are a good friend for wanting to help, I can't say I would offer the same in your shoes.
We had bedbugs last year the ONLY solution was to move, after 3 or 4 treatments. Pull the furniture away from the wall before you treat. Have a change of clothes ready for you before you go into your house or car, put everything into the dryer. Clean the bottom of your shoes.
You know what on second thought just cancel :|
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?

My husband and I aren’t exactly strangers when it comes to relationship challenges 💞. We have been together for 14 years and married for eight, so we’ve definitely gone through some growing pains as we navigated a long-distance relationship in college and our first year living together as a married 👫 couple.
But nothing has challenged our relationship quite like our first year as 👪 parents .
Before you have your first child, you have these grand ideas of what it will be like. There’s more slee...
Locking your doors
We are having a discussion on one of my birth boards from my older kids about locking doors and security alarms. There are many of us (me included) who do not lock our doors at home (I actually don't even have a deadbolt on my house and we don't lock it when we leave either), and others who think that's totally weird. So what do you do? Do you lock your doors? Do you think it's weird that people don't?
The bombs dont work. The best method is heat. Heat will kill them.
