Anyone that scrapbooks is hyper aware of using acid free paper, acid free glues, making sure the photographs don’t come into contact with anything that might contain acid. So when you discover that something – which I might add only seems to be active at night and seems intent on eating its way through your paper is living in your scrapbook room – you tend to get a little bit freaked out.
I have no idea what it might be – I did do a bit of research this morning on paper eating bugs but I’m not sure if my monster in the scrapbook room is one of them. All we can think is that whatever it is, is coming from what used to be the kitchen cupboards. My major concern is of course my scrapbook pages and paper – with the amount of paper I have in my room, these paper eating insects could turn into something like this and take over the house!
And people wonder why I’m scared of mantis’s.. do a ‘giant scary insect’ google image search…. predominant insect…. THE PRAYING MANTIS!!!! *shudder*
If anyone who reads this has an idea of what it might be and how I can get rid of it, please let me know – our lives depend on it! ‘k so that is a bit dramatic, lets just say my life and scrapbooks depend on it. I’m going to buy a doom fogger and fog the bastards out…. just hope that works.
