Message: <blockquote data-quote="Marbe2" data-source="post: 988772" data-attributes="member: 51058">Thank you for your post SY.  I will refine my preparations and add a couple of options based upon your research! So, I have been bitten on 7 of 9 Caminos, usually more than once on a camino and almost always in bed.  I am a magnate for them.  (Btw, none of them appeared to be living in beds but coming from the walls.)  Despite my encounters, I have been fortunate and careful to never bring them home.Now, I don’t use permethrin anymore ….but I do put everything in plastic including our backpacks  thanks to a post by [USER=1589]@C clearly[/USER].  On some caminos, if we send a bag ahead via Correos then that bag gets deeted each and every morning before Correos and it is put in plastic at night.I am very cautious about BBs and have significant reaction to them. Before I return from departure city, I get rid of unnecessary papers, clothing and gear. I seal the disgarded items in plastic and put them in the garbage.  I also used Deet on my baggage before flying home.  I seal all my clothing in new plastic bags and discard the old ones.Before departing for my caminos I leave a change of clothes in a sealed plastic bag in my garage.  As soon as I get out of my car rental, I go into the garage, put all my clothing and gear into a plastic black bag which I seal tightly with silver tape and rubber bands.  Then I put on the new clothes, immediately take a shower, then put the new clothes I had been wearing into another bag as well and too leave them in the garage for six months or when the weather gets warmer leave them in the black plastic bags out on the sunny patio table for a week. I wipe my ipad as best I can and put my it into a clear plastic bag sealed well and leave it in the house for a month or two.So far so good.</blockquote>
