Great article. Some of them I had never thought of as being dangerous. The others I thought of one I found out some of the apartment buildings in this city have bedbugs!!! I'm even afraid to go to the library now because of that. I love garage sales, yard sales, and thrift stores, but have stopped going unless it is for something that can be washed in hot soapy bleach water, like a food processor or other kitchen thing that is made of plastic, metal or glass and doesn't carry bugs or show sings of damage.

Shew! Toothbrushes weren't on the list! I hate to think about paying retail for those things!
