Not the expert, but /r/bedbugs regularly recommends silica and heat treatment.

Silica gets stuck on them and makes it so they can't breathe, they take it back to the others and kill them. Heat treatment (either through steaming everything or by cranking up your furnace and leaving your house for a few days) kills the eggs. Certain heat threshold is required, I forget exactly what it is but /r/bedbugs will have it.

The thing that finally got rid of mine (Crosses fingers 1 year without any new ones) was the heat treatment. We rented a space heater and target heated the rooms they were in as soon as they showed back up, bagged up all our clothes and took a trip to the laundromat and dried everything. The silica powder gets put on as a fine layer on the floor and along the walls, and we kept white sheets on all our beds for 6 months so we could see any brown spots easily. All in all we spent over $2k from all the times we tried to get rid of them, turns out the $40 rental and $200 electric bill for that month was the one that finally took.

But the UBI itself is tax-free. So if you can't find work you don't pay taxes, and if you're wealthy as-is, you just pay a larger percent of your paycheck as taxes and get some of that back as UBI.

What's it like to tell death to fuck off 4 times? Do you think Death's afraid of you now? Are you looking forward to your now endless life?

They're tearing down the Mantis this year :(

Corkscrew and Mean Streak need to be tore down, they hurt everyone who rides them (thus why they have no lines).
