There definitally NOT Clover mites, Bed bugs, ect. They live outside and that is why they are biting you. They shouldn't be biting you inside your home because they live OUTside. I know exactly what bug your talking about, I tried looking up what they were called as well, but couldn't find anything. I get bit by them all the time when i'm outside. They are like miskitoes, when they bite they fly/jump away, they live outside and are both NOT bed bugs or clover mites(: So just put on some bug spray- when working outside!

really need a closeup ... what .. if any.. trees are above.. wild cherry in your zone??? k Here is a link that might be useful: link

Bacillus thuringiensis is not a magic elixar cure all but a specific toxin for leaf eating larva in the early stage of life. Spraying BtK beyond that early life stage is a waste of your money since it will not do what it is supposed to. As with any insect control you need to look at what you have and determine if this insect really needs control, is the damage the insect doing too much to allow to continue?, or can this insect be allowed to continue to grow. Is this the larva of a butterfly that may be something desireable or is it a not desireable adult something? Are there predators around that will control these wee buggers, or have I sprayed something around that killed all of them off, or have they not arrived yet because there was not enough of this food source around? As a rule, insects that eat seeds do not eat growing plants so you need to know which you have before any control measures are taken.

Maybe I can help. Our house was built in 1962 and, interestingly enough, we are just finishing a master bath with exactly the same dimensions as yours and pretty much the same layout. All that remains to be done is for the shower door to be hung; that's another story. As I said, our bath is 7 feet long and a smidge under 7 1/2 feet wide. We also have a window over the toilet, but our wall with the vanity is on an interior wall, so no window there. The layout for our bathroom is exactly what you have in your plans, with a couple of minor differences. Our shower is 48" long, but only about 32" wide. We put a half wall between the shower and the toilet with a clear shower enclosure on the front of the shower and above the half wall. That provides a little privacy for the toilet area and prevents it being seen from the bedroom while maintaining the open feeling of the clear shower enclosure. We put crown molding all around the bathroom since the shower enclosure doesn't go all the way to the ceiling and so we weren't concerned about the humidity and the wood. The shower enclosure is tiled to the bottom of the crown molding and there is a bullnose decorative tile with a black pencil accent tile right below it that runs through the shower and extends all the way around the bathroom at wainscot height. We used a white subway tile for the shower enclosure and below the bullnose tile around the remainder of the bathroom. The subway tile and decorative tile form the backsplash above the vanity. Our plumbing for the shower is also in the wall between the bathroom and the bedroom. We used a black and white porcelain basketweave tile for the floor, both in the shower and in the remainder of the bathroom. The black accent tile on the walls and the black "dot" in the floor relate well to each other. Since we don't have the issue of the window over the vanity, we put two sinks in ours and there is plenty of room for them. The countertop doesn't feel crowded at all. As far as the grout goes, we used white epoxy grout (I don't know the brand) on the walls, and a dark gray on the floor. I've been using the bathroom, other than the shower, for a couple of months now, and the floor is pristine. While white grout was also recommended for the floor, I was too skeptical for that. The dark gray actually adds some definition to the tile pattern and there is no worry about the grout discoloring. Our vanity is 21" deep which is one reason our shower is narrower. We used standard cabinetry and the cost was relatively reasonable. It was amazing how much this small room cost! Our bathroom door does swing into the bathroom and into the shower. The only place we could find for towel bars was on the back of the door so we had to be really careful that the height of the towel bars kept them from colliding with the handle to the shower door. We also put a stop on the door so that it doesn't swing into the shower. It isn't ideal but the only way it would work for us. I don't yet have pictures; I'll try to post some in the next couple of days. Before the renovation, we had a bathtub and a small linen closet on the wall which now contains the vanity and the vanity was where the shower now is. We, thankfully, didn't need to move the toilet. I hope this has been helpful. While the bathroom is cozy, my husband and I don't generally use it at the same time. But if we did, there really is room for both of us with the double vanity. Good luck!
