@MrJahop

I've been in that lab. Its nasty all right, lol. But you should see the "meat freezer from hell" in that lab. Its got a frozen bear, frozen dolphins, you name it.

And it broke down last summer...fun time cleaning it out.

i had these disgusting little buggers in my house but after treatment im hoping they wont be back.......ive no bodies under the floor and have checked my neighbours are alive.

so the littler skinny beetles are the larvae and the big ones die after 30 days.... wow, I learn new things everyday....

Interesting

[horny4bears]

always have a kinda new or re-assured understanding, with a feeling kinda leaving me in awe over what all the dedicated people have done, in doing their best to keep and work on a accurate record for anybody that needs help in their field

find myself curious, in lookin into ways i'd be of help, since my first visit, which they did their best job by bringing a current project for us to look over and ask away with any questions we had.

Thnx, and take care
