I hope you feel better from all of those bites.

I like that... I like the smell of lemon, could I add a little lavender to that?? j/k My luck the lavender will attract the darn things

I am fine, worst comes to worst the "pack" will just pee on the pads (or my carpet when I am not looking-- that is why I have a carpet cleaner!!)

The year my poor dh was really sick I walked them and it was just as bad, but I had bigger problems so I just dealt with it. I guess that says life is better that I have time to freak out over a few 1000 bites
