Isn't that funny. The one creature I cannot stand is centipedes. There's just something creepy about a critter with that many legs.

Do a google search on bed bugs and see if the bites look the same. I have heard that some of the old farm houses can still have them. I really hope bed bugs are not the problem because they are really hard to get rid of.

I have to admit that spiders give me the willies but I also know that they are very beneficial...spiders eat a lot of bugs that would otherwise make our lives miserable.
