De-Bed-Bugging your Camino Gear

Covers it all! Great resource,
Excellent advice that seems very practical. One thought about CO2 for electronic gear would be to buy dry ice from any large grocery store (here in the US). Place in a plastic bag that is loosely tied and set outdoors. Make sure your electronics are not directly touching the dry ice because it is very cold. Do not completely seal the plastic bag because the dry ice will "melt" and turn into CO2 gas (lots of gas). I would place the plastic bag inside a paper bag that is folded shut, in case your plastic bag pops. This would probably work for delicate clothing or souvenirs also.
This answered all my questions and was very thorough on how to deal with infestations or potential infestations at the end of your Camino.
It's a 5 for people going back to their homes. Very good if headed straight back. If travelling onward in Europe what to do? Thanks for putting this together for us!
