    Zipper up that mattress and build a moat with diatomaceous earth. Do not have your bed touching any wall for 6 months at least.

          Eh there’s worse ways to go than turned into a ball during a spice girls dance routine by Neil Patrick Harris.

            I mean I don’t think they were actually dead… They seemed to be screaming inside the balls.

            It’s not the worst, I think the Family of Blood deserve that, but it is pretty high up there.

              The Doctor says “they’re dead, I’m so sorry” like 3 seconds after. So I’m gonna assume they’re dead and that’s some sort of replay of their last moments.

      We obviously had professionals come in and that’s what they did to the bed where the bedbugs were. For my bed (which was free of the buggers) they didn’t put it in plastic, just gave us cups for the feet. But otherwise the same deal. Not touching walls, had the earth put in next to all the walls, no fabrics (bed stuff, clothes, anything) from the floor on the bed and so on. Also massive project of putting all the clothes to the wash and shit.

      It was a massive hassle, but I’m very happy that the bugs hadn’t spread to my bed.
