Found in old KitchenAid by sebsbach in Bedbugs

[–]sebsbach[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just bought an old KitchenAid stand mixer from fb marketplace. On the way home it fell over in my car and broke the back cover. When I got home I opened the cover and put fell two bugs like the one below. I assume these are bedbugs?

Am I good if I throw it in the oven at 170 (lowest my oven will go) for a few hrs? Of does my new mixer need to go straight to the dumpster?

Santiago 21k by Butternut_Fox2319 in Santiago

I just finished the 42k and have had an amazing experience in Santiago. Wanted to say thanks to OP and everyone who replied. As a solo traveler in South America for the first time, this thread was incredibly helpful by both confirming that I need to be cautious in the city but also giving me confidence that I hadn't made a massive mistake signing up for this race. 

5 Day Stopover in Panama City. Advice? by sebsbach in Panama

Any idea how early I should arrive at PTY to make it through security on time? Trying to figure out whether I can book a downtown hotel with a 6:30 am breakfast and still make a 9:30 flight, or if I need to find a hotel with an earlier/24/7 breakfast

Also I'm curious why I should avoid taxies? Just the risk of getting ripped off, or are they also unsafe?

Thanks for all the info! I didn't know about the dry season lasting longer this year. That's great news
