TheEveningSun: Last February, West Manheim Township Police entered a home on Baltimore Pike and one of the first things they noticed were the bed bugs.
The pests were seen on walls and along ledges. They scurried on the bed sheets and pillow where an elderly woman slept in a first floor room. That woman, police said, told officers she was blind, but could “feel them crawling.”
Sometimes, she said, the bugs bit her, too.
EMS would later check on that woman, but did not notice any visible injuries, police said.
But, according to police, there was a second woman who was living at the home, too. Both had been staying there under the care of the home’s owner, Deborah Butler, who had previously run a licensed home care facility, Luckenbaugh Personal Care Home. more
OK. Off to the shower.
I once stayed at a downtown Richmond hotel and got bedbugs. Didn’t know what hit me at first.
Ended up throwing away suitcase and all its contents.
“Nighty night, sleep tight, don’t – ”
…Well, you know the rest.

Chiggers were worse. Yikes. Another first and last experience that I’ll never forget. And will to great lengths to avoid.
Chiggers are terrible fricking bad. Boy Scout camp
in the 70’s, one kid’s Army cot had a chigger nest in
it and they assaulted his face and head while he slept,
it was terrible.
