For the past 6 months I have been fighting a losing battle with bedbugs in my apartment; spray only sends them back into the walls, the diatamatious earth is spread everywhere, yet these little vampires continue coming from somewhere. The problem is their bites are now causing me great discomfort for instead of just itching, they are turning read, looking like an abscess and are on legs and arms, with one now starting in my right ear canal opening. Taking as many as 3 baths a day, usually drowning large amounts of the tiny bedbugs who have just hatched I feel like a prisoner in my apartment, because they are so easy to spread and yet feel my health is declining due to lack of sleep, good sleep that is, and the harder we work the behinder we get. Short of burning building down, not sure what to do, but it's these open sores which weep and ache all the time that give me reason to write this morning. I'm on disability, 62, and have limited options. Also haven't any money for anything, disability is a joke, and SSI well $733.00 doesn't go very far and by this time of month what bills I have leave me wiped out financially.
