"Killed one of those in my little girls bed a few days ago. Nasty little bas........"

I've been bitten by one which decided to share my sheets with me.

Pull the bed away from the wall so it's not touching any other wall or furniture; fix the bedcovers so they can't slip off onto the floor; and put two-sided tape around
the bed legs.
That should help keep them away. . .

If you do get bit, smother the bite with MSM powder.
It neutralizes the posion. (You can find the powder at any health food store; it may be in capsule form so you'll have to break open the capsules and mix the powder into a paste.)
Keep a poltice of the powder on the wound.
You'll still get some damage, but it won't be as bad.

Thank goodness she wasn't bit!Wife has been bitten twice in the last two weeks.Once on the leg,the last one on her stomach.The doctor measured the depth at 2 inches.Nasty is too kind a word.We think we have narrowed it down to her closet,as the entrance to the attic is located there.We cleaned out the closet,went through her clothes,and bombed the daylights out of it.Very glad your girls are okay.I cant imagine a little one being bitten by one of these.I worry as my grandchildren spend a lot of time here.Wife said she never felt a thing when she was bitten.It starts out as a little pimple,only to morph into a big wound.
