Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Inspect the bites carefully. Pay attention to when the bites occur. Check your home for signs of bedbugs. Visit your doctor. Call an exterminator.

Answer: Bedbug bites commonly resemble other insect bites, including mosquito bites. They typically involve a raised, reddish bump but can also appear as a blister. Bedbug bites are very difficult to distinguish from other insect bites; even a clinical physician cannot usually diagnose bites simply by looking at them. Bedbugs do, however, have a unique bite pattern. Although some bites may appear alone, most bites occur in a row of three to five bites (termed "breakfast, lunch, and dinner") or in a cluster of red bumps (a rash called bedbug dermatitis). The bites often appear in a zig-zag formation, but may appear in a straight line if the bugs bite you in the morning. Bites tend to occur on exposed areas of the body. Studies show that they have a preference of biting the skin around the eyelids, and such areas as the neck, face, feet, and arms. In contrast to mosquito bites, bedbug bites rarely occur on the back of the knees or in the folds of the skin. The bumps or the rash typically resolve themselves within one to two weeks. However, although an individual bite or set of bites may heal, if you have not eradicated the problem through pest extermination, then you may continue to get bitten. As long as there are bedbugs, they will try to get at you. Consider, for example, if you notice the bites after waking up when previously you hadn't noticed them. However, this can also be difficult to determine because each person's reaction time can vary significantly. Symptoms that result from the bite can manifest at any point from a couple of hours to more than a week after the bite occurred. Bedbug bites can have a long incubation period. Visible signs of the bite (a red, itchy bump) can appear up to 10 days after you were initially bitten. Start with where you sleep. Bedbugs want to be where people are so they can get the warm blood of humans. A telling sign is red spots on the sheets. These may come from a bedbug that was squashed after feeding, or from the bites left on you when the bug finished feeding on you. Inspect your entire mattress, including the lining and seams. Look for sleeping bedbugs, carcasses, empty skins (their exoskeletons) and feces (this will look like little black spots or smudges). Check your sheets, pillow cases, and pillows as well. It is very difficult to see and catch a living bedbug. They are tiny brownish insects with broad, oval-shaped bodies. are very good at hiding. However, finding a bedbug is the only way to confirm that that is indeed what bit you. You can also see a doctor for diagnosis if you do not find signs of bedbugs in your bed and cannot identify the source of the bites or rash. However, there is a very good chance that your physician will not be able to firmly diagnose that you have been bitten by a bedbug because the symptoms look so similar to those that result from other insect bites and skin conditions. Nevertheless, you may feel comforted by going to see your doctor, who can confirm for you that bedbugs pose little physical threat to humans. Your doctor may prescribe a topical corticosteroid ointment to help relieve itching and inflammation. These ointments are stronger than the ones you can buy over the counter. This is the surest way to confirm that you have been bitten by a bedbug. An exterminator will search your home and be able to confirm whether or not you have an infestation on your hands. An exterminator will know what to look for and can also then treat your home to remove the bedbugs and prevent future bites from occurring. Home foggers and and bug sprays will not usually kill a bedbug infestation. To make sure you eradicate bedbugs from your home, go with a professional exterminator.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Acknowledge that you're having a panic attack. Distract yourself from the panic attack with a happy memory or thought.

Answer: While you may want to try, suppressing or denying the panic attack can make it worse. Accept what's happening by telling yourself, "I'm having a panic attack." Admitting it might feel like you're giving up, but it's an important way to look at the situation logically. By maintaining your awareness, you can work through the panic attack. If anyone is around you, tell them you're having a panic attack as well, and you need some time to get through it. Replacing the negative thoughts and feelings with happier thoughts can help get you through the attack. Think about things that make you laugh or make you happy. Focus on these positive thoughts to distract yourself.If you're at home, try looking at some pictures of your family or pets to cheer yourself up. You can also look at pictures on your phone if you're out.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Water your plants as needed. Keep the compost flowing. Keep your plant healthy by removing dead flowers. Separate your plants every three to four years. Fertilize with liquid fertilizer such as 20-20-20.

Answer: Geraniums are considered relatively drought resistant, but that doesn't mean you should never water them. To tell if your plants need to be watered, check the soil. Use your fingernail to scratch just below the surface of the soil--if it is dry or barely moist, you should water your flowers. It is important to let the soil dry out between waterings. For geraniums in pots, make sure that you give them enough water. Water the plants until the water runs out the bottom (hence why you need holes in the bottom of your pot.) Each spring, you should add a new layer of compost around your geraniums. Place 2 inches (5.1cm) of mulch on top of this layer of composted soil. The mulch will help to keep the soil moist, and will also reduce the number of weeds brave enough to grow around your geraniums. After the flower has bloomed, remove the dead flowers and parts of the plant so that it can regrow healthy and strong. Remove leaves and stalks that have died (they will be brown in color) so that your plant does not grow any fungus (which appears on dead parts of plants.) Once your plants have grown large (and most likely extended their boundaries a good deal,) you should separate the plants. Divide the plants in late spring. To do this, lift the plants (and their roots) out of the ground, separate the plants by the clumps they have grown around their stems, and replant them. Follow the directions on the fertilizer to know how much to use. Try to keep from getting fertilizer on the plant leaves. Repeat the application once every two weeks during active growing seasons.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Start with damp hair that is already cut to at least shoulder-length. Refine the hairline along the nape. Separate the front part of the hair from the back. Cut a vertical section of hair on the back-center of the head Cut a horizontal section of hair across the vertical one. Continue to cut the hair in vertical and horizontal sections. Blend the hair by combing it upwards and snipping it.

Answer:
Starting with hair that is already cut somewhat short will be a lot easier to work with than long hair. If the client's hair falls past their shoulders, gather their hair into a ponytail, then cut it off. This is known as rough-cutting, and will make the length more manageable. Don't worry if it looks uneven. You will continue to take off more length in the following steps and even things out some more. Don't cut too close to the person's head. The ponytail will make the cut hair easier to manage, as it will stay tied together. Also, it gives the client the option to donate the hair. Pull a comb through the hairline, pulling it up. Placing your fingers just behind the comb, make a V-shape with your fore and middle fingers, closing them against the hair at the nape. Then, cut the hair just below them. Repeat the process along the hairline, holding your fingers at a slight angle. Work with a thin section of hair, no longer than the length of your first knuckle to your second knuckle on your finger. If you are cutting curly hair, plan on cutting it 1 to 2 inches (3.81 to 5.08 centimeters) long. Use the handle of a rat-tail comb to create a vertical part on each side of the head, just behind the ears. Each part should meet on the top of your head. Brush the hair in front of the ear forward, out of the way. If the hair won't stay forward, secure it with clips. . Take a vertical section of hair from the back-center of the client's head, comb through it, and pinch it between your fore and middle fingers. Slide your fingers down to where you want to cut, then snip the hairs sticking out in front of your fingers. Pixie cuts are shortno longer than 2 inches (5.08 centimeters). Pinch a horizontal of hair, right across the section you just cut. Slide your fingers down until you see the cut ends of the vertical section. Cut the horizontal section so that it aligns with the vertical one. Work your way towards the right side of the head, then repeat for the left side. Keep alternating between vertical and horizontal sections. This technique will allow you to measure up the already-cut strands against the un-cut strands. Stop when you get to the vertical parts just behind the ears. Comb the hair upwards with a fine-toothed comb. Snip the hair that's sticking out through the bristles as you comb upward. Create a soft, round line that follows the curve of the client's head. You won't cut everything that's in front of the comb, which is the point. You should only remove small quantities of hair at this time. If you realize you have a lot of hair to cut, then you should recut using the techniques discussed above, then try blending again.
