Three weeks in - two bugs spotted
(1 post)-
Back story: I woke up on September 13 with three bites. We started IPM routines from Toronto Health. I've had no bites since then.
This morning my husband found two nymphs on the tape surrounding the bed. They look like they were most likely coming from the baseboards, but unfortunately, on opposite corners of the bed.
We had slacked off a bit on the daily vacuuming, but will resume that for a while... this week at least!
We are going to visit my parents for (Canadian) Thanksgiving this coming weekend, and I really don't want to bring any hitchhikers with us. I will probably wash all our clothes and do a super-hot dry on them the night before we leave, taking them straight from the dryer to the car.
Unfortunately we have to take the vehicle that we think we brought the original hitchhiking bug(s) home in. We haven't used it in about six weeks, and we won't be sleeping in it, so hopefully it won't cause any problems.
I'm upset about having found the bugs, but grateful that I haven't had any bites since the original trio on the 13th. I hope there are no cases of people reacting to their first bites, then not reacting again!
