It seems, people used to wash their hands after using the toilet and do other more sensible things in the past Many of the pandemics and illnesses come down to being spread because of a simple lack of sensible hygiene. Also, we for the most part didn't even know bedbugs were actually real. When buying second hand closes putting them in the dryer for about an hour or more at high heat FIRST kills both bedbugs AND their eggs. You might want to put a damp towel in the load since your putting them in the dryer FIRST. Then run them through the washer. If it's a public washer; repeat the dryer procedure AGAIN, because previous users of the washing machine may have left bedbugs (even just ONE) or their eggs. Believe me, it's worth it. Bedbugs breed WAY faster than roaches and it's quite expensive to exterminate them. 🌺

But you can't wash them before trying them on in the fitting rooms, and who knows how many others tried them on before you, who they were, or what they have🤢🤮 So how do you know if something will fit well or whether you'll even like the item(s) without first taking them home, removing tags, and washing the items, at which point some stores may not take them back. Plus, then you miss out on trying on different sizes, colors, etc, of the same item to help you find the right ones for you. What a pain. I think we need to go back to making our own clothes or having them custom-made instead of off the rack.

😱 wow! I worked in management at a savers thrift store like 20 yrs ago and they were really good about checking everything. For anything with fabric they had people whose job it was just to check if it was clean and hang it or line it up to be further inspected by more eyes and a price assigned. Nothing made it out to the sales floor if it was grimy, stained, badly wrinkled, etc. Glad for that! Also the fitting rooms were monitored so clothes swapping was rare. Even the back of house staff used to watch out for swappers, they were on it! It would be horrible to have bugs, etc at work! Sorry that was yr experience it must have been difficult! 💛 😪

After working in Pest Control some 20+ years ago, used furniture isn't an option. A Lender in a strip-mall called in for Service. Got there, things seemed a bit off, everything was well maintained in every capacity. However, next door was a resale shop for furniture, they promoted their business like a Rent to Own place, thus loads of repos. I didn't need to enter the shop to see the problem, they were crawling up the window in the middle of the day... huge infestation. I wanted to go in and ask for Upson Pratt.

Another thing you can easily bring home from a thrift store is 1..carpet Beatles. Didn’t have them up north, but in warm climates they destroy.coats, rugs, & anything else w/ natural fibers. 2. Also, very common in hot areas is termites. My house has been tented, but u can easily bring home termites, and they can get into all wood. I picked up a picture frame one day at home, and was shocked to find that the termites ate the entire wood frame and left the paint, which looked like the frame, but wasn’t. LOL. Thus the tenting. 3. Also, there are few kinds of roaches, they hide in paper so most southerners avoid paper bags & cardboard. If I bring a paper bag home, bc I need one, I fold it up & put it in the freezer for a couple days. Thrift stores provide a valuable service when they sell good used, or new stuff at a 75% discount. Make sure u have a 3 day warranty on electronics, & try the item as soon as u get home. Many of the shops don’t test irons, crockpots, vacuums, and more. And when u find you bought an item or have an item that doesn’t work right, like the crockpot I bought, do me a favor and throw broken stuff away instead of donating it where the next shopper is burned.

Currently battling my second encounter with lice compliments my local Value Village (from a cap I bought). I shower after trying on. Yes, I wash before officially wearing and even before storing in my home. However, my issue was I didn't wash everything in hottest heat and dry everything in hottest heat. There are items that just can't be washed that way. Be sure to bag in plastic then take to a dry clean and let the dry cleaners know you bought second hand. I didn't know this info until I did research after dealing with this again (and the covid precautions taken by stores early on in the pandemic reduced the risk of this happening, but...they stopped doing them). It's great if a shop cleans the clothes, but it's a bit rare. Also, NEVER store furniture outside.That's HOW you'll get bed bugs, fleas, and other bugs in and on your furniture. The only time you store outside is if wrapped securely in plastic and on a hot summer's day to kill any potential bugs, including bed bugs. Those who claim they never got anything from a thrift store either live in a cush area or don't have allergic reactions to the bug bites. In my situation, people just don't think and donate stuff while they're in the middle of a pest control issue (a patient of mine admitted she donated stuff during the middle of a flea infestation) plus homeless people shopping there. I also got scabies the first time around, too, b/c I learned (after getting them) that there was a scabies outbreak in my area, particularly around the homeless population. Please be careful and heed their warnings.

Bad mojo comes with it, so to be safer give positive before bringing into your home.

In hot climates, termites can be in anything wood. A chair, a picture frame, a rocker, a trunk, a dresser, a trinket box, and on and one. If u want to make sure you’re not bringing termites in, wrap the wood piece in heavy plastic & leave in garage, but put 8 ounces of mothballs inside the plastic wrap, for contact with the wood. Then leave it for 4 or 5 months. Sounds paranoid, but I had an antique cupboard with termites, so o put a package mothballs in it , on the different shelves, & taped it all up & and the termites were killed. Problem solved. BUT, moth balls are extremely toxic, and should never be anywhere close to ppl., even it the furniture is wrapped up.

I picked up something in a Goodwill Clearance Center years ago that had cat poop on it. I've found lots of dirty stinky things in thrift stores, usually always Goodwill, in their regular store or the Clearance Center bins, which we are fortunate enough to have in our town. Even if it's difficult to wash things if one is low income, may not have a washing machine or a dryer to heat clothes to high temps, you can wash them in the sink with very hot water. You can wipe shoes down carefully with something sanitizing. This is a non-story. This is common sense, as everyone is staying here 🙄😮‍💨 Bedbugs etc is a whole other story!
