I'm in a room to stretch out our money until we have a great place to live. Now I understand why people don't like bed bugs bite. I read up on how to get rid of the bugs. Lavender working on them perfectly fine. I can say no more bugs with all the lavender products and Ortho repellent bed bugs spray. Look on the bright side of happiness and solved the problem. Get ready to plant lavender everywhere and defeat our enemies here bed bugs. Sleepy and enjoy the rest of my stay.
