They are like bed bugs, but ones that can burn down your house if they get out of control.
Sorry to laugh. I suffer the indignity and discomfort of bed bugs, myself, and have for the past few months. Nothing seems to get rid of them. I live in fear of spreading them to others. Happily, I am at least among the portion of the population which does not react to the bites. They are stressful and rather horrid, though. So, y'know. I laugh, to keep from crying. That's sort of the way Repugs make me feel, too.
