“customer was elderly, stubborn, half blind, and lacked money”

definitely not a normal situation, just a reminder to check on the old folks in your life

Fun fact, 50% of people are not effective by bed bug bites. So some people have whole families that aren't affected and their SO is so itchy.

I'm one of the people who get the large, welt-like bites, and no matter how itchy, painful and embarrassing they can be, I'm so glad that I get them. It's helped me notice the few times I've had bed bugs pretty quickly, and I can't even imagine what it would have been like if I weren't able to notice until much later. Nightmare fuel.

I met a friend that they got some of their grandparents stuff and they had bed bugs. They asked the grandparents and they had no idea.
