Glad it worked for you Zip!

I did that once to myself...

My wife and I were traveling in Thailand and were staying at a place near “the Bridge” on the River Kwai. I like WW2 history so I kind of steered us that way. 😉 Anyway, after traveling all day and into the night, when we arrived we were exhausted. Now, my wife has a lot higher standards than I do when it comes to hotels/hostels/campsites, etc, and when we got into our room I looked at the beds and said, “Nope.”

She, however, was way too tired she said to deal with it and proceeded to get into one of the little single beds. So, I removed all the bedding on my single bed, threw the pillows in the corner, and then unloaded a can of bug spray onto that bed before I lay down in it with my towel.

Well, I woke up with the worst hangover I’d ever had and I wasn’t even drinking! The DEET in that spray buggered me up. But I had 0 bed bug bites! My wife had over 70. It was pretty gross. My towel stayed right where it was! The sun coming up really showed us how bad it was. Ahhh, traveling stories about bugs. 😃
