Pre-emptive itching

During our 10-day trip we overnighted in two brand-new hotels and one older one. I, for one, do not welcome our new bedbug overlords, so my to-do list now that I'm home includes a bunch of tasks that presume that I brought some bedbugs with me. I've been doing a lot of laundry, for one, and the suitcases are out on the deck indefinitely -- or at least until we get some freezing weather.

And now some vacuuming.
