Some kind of biting insect has decided it finds our bedroom to be quite a lovely place to live. I'm guessing because the bedroom is the only room in the house with carpeting. I was cuddled up in bed with my husband, watching TV together, and something was biting me like crazy. In the hour or so we were watching TV, I've accumulated several lovely welts. One on each leg, one on my cheek, and one on my wrist.
The annoying part? My husband wasn't bitten once. Not ONCE. Whatever this insect is, it finds me delicious. I don't think it's fleas or bedbugs. From what I understand, those buggies leave small red welts in groups. My bites look exactly like mosquito bites: good-sized raised, single welts, but I can't figure out how mosquitos are biting me under the sheets.
So yeah. Instead of being cuddled up and going to sleep, we're now washing the bedding and just finished spraying the entire bedroom with an upholstery/fabric flea killer. We'll call the local exterminator tomorrow.
Gah. I love country living. :wall:
