Listen. You’re not a bad person. You’re not a dirty person. Bugs just happen. They are the freeloading cousins of the insect world. They show up, eat your snacks, and leave a mess.
But you can beat them. It takes patience. A little bleach. And maybe a lot of denial.
So get off this article. Go check your baseboards. Vacuum with vengeance. And if you see a black bug doing a victory lap on your counter, just remember: you are the bigger, smarter, more motivated mammal. You got this. (I’ll be over here, still vacuuming my pillow.)
