The Bed Bugs Are Back

Hey bloggers, and this following post is yet another one of those posts that was posted on my other blog some time a while ago.  It's just that attempting to maintain more than one blog seems as if it wants to confuse me sometimes to where this blog seems as if it wants to become Orwellian truespeak sometimes with its times, dates and histories.....
After decades of hibernation, the bedbugs are back. I know because yesterdays am New York and this weeks The Villager says so. They both have bed bug articles that basically say the same thing; the bed bugs are back in New York. And the bedbugs must have reached epidemic proportions now in New York because the papers say so. And not only in New York, but across the country and across the world I have been reading that bedbugs are making a comeback. And just about every single paper that one can think of has written about them lately. Are bedbugs taking over the world? Is this the latest swarm of locusts to appear on planet earth, the scorpions that afflict man. And I also know the bedbugs are back in New York because I have heard stories lately from friends who have them in their apartments and their friends have them in their apartments who have other friends who have them in their apartment and so on and so on and so on. And I have read the bedbugs life story a thousand times by now, and I have read the "My battle with the bed bug" stories a thousand times now also, enough to know that this latest swarm does not discriminate between rich and poor or high and low. The creature inhabits all places from top to bottom. And there seems to be whole blogs and forums devoted to them now, tons and tons and tons of them. Are bedbugs taking over the world? And now there is a whole new meaning to that phrase "Good night, sleep tight. Don't let the bed bugs bite".

    bedbugs have been a big problem since 2005, the media is only now picking up on the story, go figure.as a frequent visitor to NYC i have been raped by bedbugs twice. i am paranoid now and triple check the hotel mattress and headboard. i use bedbugregistry.com and allersac.com i also spray some ecobug around the bed. some of my friends call me a freak, i tell them laugh all you want but it's only a matter of time, if you stay in a hotel in NYC or anywhere else for that matter, you WILL be bit. bedbugs are friggin epidemic around the country. at least they don't spread disease, YET.
