Bedbugs on the Big Island

[Bullwinkle]

I always wondered about sleeping on a conventional mattress on island. Seemed when I stayed in rentals on the Puna side - the mattress always a little funky due to the humidity, now with the appearance of bed bug issues a solution could be ...........

I opted for a sixties solution and bought a waterbed - a plastic envelope that can be wiped down when it gets funky when I furnished the house.

My feeling is that owning a conventional mattress in this high humidity environment will lead to problems sooner or later - having spent years living on a boat - I am well versed in keeping the sleeping quarters fresh.

The woof likes it too...........
