Thank god the olympics are coming or they may never have had such a push to have this solved. Kinda strikes me as a problem that should have been important before inviting the world over. Like, I had an apartment and we got the buggers. Sucks. So we got on top of it, and delt with it.

Didn't wait until we invited people over to start worrying about it.

I'll be honest, there are a lot of things I personally don't deal with properly until I'm expecting company. But bedbugs should take priority 100% of the time.

Dude, totally. I have no shame in some ways until moments before company. Kinda live alone, so it happens.

But yeah. Bed bugs are one of those things that are an immediate situation. Some may call us picky, but yeah. Ew.
