I think she was referring to the bedbug problem since the hotel/motel outbreaks. I don't want to carry anything home! Yesterday because the weather was so great, we went walking down by the river, with all the trees overhead. When I got home, I took everything and dumped it into the laundry, including my jacket, and then took a shower and washed my hair!
Back a while ago when I was working, somebody who worked in the store threw their jacket over a couple of wild birds in order to catch and remove them, that inadvertently made their way into the unloading dock. The birds had chiggers and the contaminated coat spread chiggers throughout much of the department store! What a nightmare! People carried them to their homes! Shortly thereafter I started hearing about the motel rooms contaminated with bedbugs.
