Shine a Light

Very easy to see the hole that's been chewed in the door sweep here.  Notice also all the rodent markers on the congoleum.

But this was one of those doors in the back of the restaurant that no one uses except the rodents.

Gotta move that junk back there so you can see what's going on.

No Clutter!!!!!

I'll be back when I feel like it.

Heads Up

Those head boards on some people's beds?

Not feeling them.

Why's that?

Often times they have upholstery, wicker, nooks, crannies, macaroni, sparkles, shpetzel, shnitzel, and other little areas where bed bugs can hide.

And get high on your blood fool.

See those dark little beauties tucked away behind the blue cloth on this headboard, gorged with the blood of New York transplant who moved here to fulfill her life long dream of making it big?  And how she cried when I pointed out the bugs that were hidden all over her bed.

"Oh, are you an actress?" I asked.  "Great performance."

Do yourself a favor and ditch the headboards.  Times have changed.

Ew York City will be back sooner or later.

If you want to be free, be free

Human behavior is much less predictable than pest behavior.

(That's assuming that you don't consider humans to be pests.)

The person in this apartment was treated for bed bugs.

As part of the service, we supply them with monitors, these black disk like objects that are quite effective at catching bed bugs.

Unfortunately, they don't work that well when you use them as plant holders.

(They're the black objects below the plants in the picture.)

Maybe they caught some ants or beetles?

Ew York City will be back later in the week

I don't feel so well anymore

When you pull out a kitchen appliance and see this, you kind of lose your appetite.

And you should.  This is not the way any kitchen floor should look.

Get your team into regular, systematic cleaning.

You'll be glad you did!

Insert smiley face and thumbs up here.

Ew york city will be back next week

It's Your Responsibility To Look Under Your Stove

Plastic container full of fly larvae.

Pipe Nightmare

Flies breeding in these hoses under the bar.

Check, clean, treat, repeat.

Ew York City will be back next week

Pestilence of Biblical Proportions

Every now and then circles overlap in your life.

My theological background and my entomological background intersected on this day, when I found a nice harborage of bed bugs infesting this Bible.

Obviously, this Bible hadn't been read very often, so there's a little lesson for Sunday School.

We could also talk about how these bugs have a spiritual hunger, how the Bible is the living Word, how the plagues of Egypt are very vivid in this particular translation, etc.

Ha ha ha

Anyway, double check every where boys and girls.  You never know when it's your day to stand before the Judge.

Ew York City will be back later this week.
