there seems to be overwhelming interest in a Seedbug Support Hotline thanks to this thread aired on chambers on October 11, 2022, a thread that seems to have fizzled out. At least from the outside looking in, that is. <br><br>A few day ago I got a message from a stranger on Facebook I did not know. He was from a city about 30 miles away from my own. He was desperate. His wife was beside herself. The bugs were everywhere. Descending from the ceiling in the middle of the night. Crawling on her kitchen table. His wife wanted to move. He wanted to stay. <br><br>I did not know this man. Got a sense for his situation. I lived in his city at one time. We chatted for about 15 minutes. He had a few questions, from which I walked him through with detailed answers. I found it rewarding. I was proud of the work I had done in regards to seedbugs. It felt rewarding. It was a great example of how seedbug research could be used in the real world. It was a single event, but I feel like there are many more people like this man out there.<br><br>The Seedbug Support Hotline is open to all past and present seedbug homeowners. <br><br>You were there and you got out. You fought the good fight and you’re currently winning. Your house is seedbug free and you are living freely. You don’t dare speak of it to anyone who wasn’t there because they just don’t understand. <br><br>Or… The worst-case scenario… You’re still there, fighting the good fight. You’re up at 5am cleaning off the gutters. You’re on the roof 3 times a day. The neighbors are beginning to stare. You can’t sleep at night. You can’t think about anything else. You can’t do anything. You’re constantly distracted. It feels like you’re being watched. You feel like you’re going crazy. <br><br>You ain’t crazy. You just need to talk to somebody who’s lived through it. <br><br>The Seedbug Support Hotline is open 24 hours a day. Email me with your seedbug story, and I’ll give you my phone number. I’ve lived it. I know the pain. I know the confuse. I know the fear. I want to help.
