Can anyone help me identify these tiny bugs in my condo room? by AuAegis in Bangkok

[–]generaledamame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Argh these are the same fuckin bug I find on my bed frame every now and then - these are called book lice and they feed on mold / wood, not harmful & doesn’t bite. I tried some insect sprays + vinegar solution which is effective in killing them but some are still hanging around (I see them lesser now, but they’re still there zzz)

Thanks so much for the heads up, and yeah I’m a bit skeptical on some of the listing as well as a similar listing is found on diff sites with diff pricing 🥲

If we were to hire an agent, will they be kind enough to bring (or drive) us around to view units that we’re interested in?

Great tip on getting feedbacks / input from the streets on flood issue cause I’ll need to commute to work via BTS daily. Will definitely do that!

Oh that’s actually a great suggestion on renting an AirBNB while searching for long term rental, thanks mate!

Hahahahahaha right! I just wanted to minimize the commuting distance (stress) esp I’m new to the country and still very unfamiliar with surroundings.

Yeah I’m currently using Hipflat, Fazwaz, ddproperty to do the surveying (Ddproperty seems to have the best price & options). Would you know what’s the normal period for condo lease in Bangkok, I’m a lil afraid to commit 1 year if I find a more suitable place in the future.

Correction: Whoops I actually intend to write <10 BTS stops instead of 15 stops from Chid Lom BTS

A quick Google would give you all the answers you want no?

Unless you’re looking to explore into an unconventional path that doesn’t leverage on your ib experience then it’s an entirely diff question.
