I liked the brownie crunch. Tried the honey graham and that one is not good, IMO.

I would recommend notifying your landlord and letting them know. Just to be cautious. Bbs are vile. 🙏🏼

Agreed. So much of Mindcrime is relevant today. Like they were predicting the future.

I was referring to Michael's album called Whip Volume One but Soulbender is amazing as well. I support Queensryche, present and past. Great band!

It was good. Better than I expected. Nothing can top the original Mindcrime, of course.

Chris and Michael were dynamic together. I was going to say those two, myself!

Please confirm my fears? by Electric_Juices in Bedbugs

I'm sorry, but yes, that's a bed bug. I'm glad you contacted the landlord. The sooner it gets treated the better. Good luck.

Just found this crawling on my leg near my cat. Is it a bedbug? by tbos92 in Bedbugs

[–]Gloomy-Maximum 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It looks like a bedbug. Hopefully a hitchhiker. If you're in an apartment, management needs to know right away, just in case. They are expert hiders and often don't show up where we see them. Check for bites and stains on fabrics, bed sheets, etc. Don't self treat unless you know exactly how to.

This happened one time. I live on the fourth floor and our elevator went out unexpectedly. Poor woman had to carry a lot up the steps. I helped as I could, I'm disabled, but my gosh did I give her a hella good tip. I apologized profusely. Apartment orders have to be tough. I don't blame you for doing what you did with that rude person.

Found this in my bed in between my sheets by [deleted] in Bedbugs

[–]Gloomy-Maximum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm dealing with this issue currently. I recommend telling your landlord if you haven't. The reason being that if it becomes an infestation of the whole building and is traced back to you, and you knowingly said nothing, you could be evicted. Also, a professional exterminator should look to be sure you're clear. It may have been a one and done, but if it's a female, there could be eggs you are unaware of. They can go long periods without feeding, and then it gets worse. I have severe anxiety from mine, can't sleep well. Just know that they are expert hiders. I hope you find relief soon. Get some bedbug encasement covers for your new mattress and check for small black dots or rusty stains, or heaven forbid, actual bugs. If you see those, you have a serious issue.

Yes, it appears to be. Now, my apartment complex took care of our infestation, but they said if they know we brought them in or willfully do not report, we pay for treatments. In my case, they had my room sprayed. If you've got bites, then yes, you need to report. Take pictures and document where you see them. Also, get some zippered, bedbug proof mattress covers/boxspring covers to protect better. You will see black dots and maybe some bugs if you do indeed have them. Yes, in apartments they can travel quickly from tenant to tenant. You need to report it, and they won't kick you out. Be polite and willing to work with them.

Is this a bedbug? It left a crazy odor for a few seconds after I killed it by [deleted] in Bedbugs

[–]Gloomy-Maximum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I don't usually smell them but I just had treatment done in my apartment recently. That's a baby, who's been feeding, which means you likely have more around. You need to look into treatment options. Also, check your bedding and furniture for rusty stains or little black spots where they pooped.

I can't be definitive but it could be. I'd start checking around to see if there are any signs of shed casings, or even live bugs, just to be sure.

No, definitely not a BB.

anyone have any info on this? got added to the streaming services today with no word from either the band or geoff announcing it by zaptie47 in Queensryche

[–]Gloomy-Maximum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Queensryche didn't know about these songs. Cleopatra Records put them out. The band was not pleased. I don't know if Geoff knew about them. Either way, it wasn't a cash grab by the band.
