    Hello,

    well, I stayed a lot at hotels in the last years and fortunately I never saw bed bugs. I guess they are hard to get rid off.

    Apparently they are super hard to get rid of...there is a product though, called "Diatomaceous Earth", and it works really well for getting rid of them...

    The first thing I do when I stay in any hotel is check the bed for bedbugs....

    Not sure? I know there is a pool grade, which is used for swimming pools, and then there is a food grade, which is what you use for the bed bugs.

    Hello,

    is that used as some kind of a barrier where the bed bugs can't get over or does it kill them?

    Regards

    Good question. I think it kills them...I know you're suppose to sprinkle it around your bed and around the edge of your room and it works really well at getting rid of them....I've never had bed bugs (touches wood)..

    yeah, it's the most effective common type of pool filter, assuming you're measuring effectiveness by percentage of particles it can filter out normally.

    of course, it's also the most expensive, which is why a majority of pools are probably still using sand.

    i don't know anything about killing bedbugs with it.

    powdered calcite with lots of little tiny fossles of little tiny diatoms (kind of like way primative amobias) in it. like how did we get here from teddy bears? is this what you put on your teddy bear if he has teddy fleas?

    I vaguely remember having a few stuffed toys as a kid but I didn't sleep with them. I was always more likely to fall asleep with a book in my hands :D

    I had some kind of stuffed animal when I was a kid... I don't remember what it was. I remember it being thrown away though.

    I have a stuffed animal that I still sleep with, which I have had since I was a baby. She is a space dinosaur.

    If you don't have a stuffed animal you're close with, I question the validity of your being here. -.-

    i see them as an art form. something to be creative by handcrafting them. not bears particularly, but all kinds of creatures, even completely imaginary species.
