Update to my Diatomaceous Earth post

Research on Google ..bedbugs /Diatomaceous Earth / ussge ...and look on Amazon

Forget any spray ,heat ...waste of time . Professional treatment very expensive .

From personal experience .... Diatomaceous Earth .

It's a fine powder ..like flour .your powder all round the areas you have a problem . On the edges of mattresses( brush in the seams with small brush ) , round legs of bed and tables round the edges of carpets ...etc ...and leave it !

The powder is harmless to humans and animals .

But for bed bugs it is like razor blades

...they all die

But ..they will have laid eggs . You must repeat this at least once more 10- 14 days later .

Totally worked !

I used it when I was in the u.s. ...I think I ordered 1 kg .. from Canada . Can't remember more than that . This was the only thing that worked ...and it seems that most of America/ Europe is still unaware of it ..

Research it on Google ...buy at least ½ kg

Also, did you see many people there extending tourist visas today or it's less than normal?

Haha ....don't know ...I was in and out so easily .Nothing like last July for sure ...but it's not high season now . Seemed like a good mixture of Asian and Western faces in the TV seats .

I arrived at 7.30 this morning.i got queue no.270.  I asked the guy who had no.1 what time he arrived .....4.00am !!. Then I went down stairs ,got a coffee,did my photocopies and passport photo . At about 8.00 they get everyone to line up in queue number , anyone who was later without queue number at the back

At 8.15 they opened the door and you queue briefly to have documents checked and obtain a queue number specific to your reason to go there

I was there for tourist visa 30 day extension .
I got No.10...by 9.00am everything done passport in hand I left .

Now to sit out the virus risk for awhile .Too many countries have stopped giving visas . I wait to see what to do next

That would be accepted for the for trip into the country since they do not say it has to be a flight ticket . You can also get a train from KL ot the border. Same for the ticket out of the country.

 

A rental agreement in your name and a signed copy of the owners ID card would be accepted. 

  

You assumed wrong since they do not ask for it. Perhaps the assume immigration would ask to see 20k baht when you enter the country.

Ubonjoe ! ...I see you say rental agreement and signed copy of owners I'd ....I'm in an appt in Bangkok owned by a company ...the manager here tells me it's not possible to get owners I'd .

Where in the setv requirements does it say this and do you have any advice how I should get this , or get around it

Sorry to jump somebody's post

Wow ...fast ...thankyou Ubonjoe

looks like im stuck with them taking a page and a half on the old one and the new one , I hate that !!

Passports dont last long , especially when the U.K. say 48 pages and then use several already

hope this is in the right forum.

Ive just received my new replacement passport from the U.K. ( old one full)    What are my choices to "register" it as my current passport ?

Im in Bangkok. I was told to go to Immigration, but can I wait and do it at the airport as I leave ?   I am on a VOA with a 30 day extension until 17 sept .

What do they stamp in the new passport ....just the exit stamp ? or do they put arrival and extn  stamps as well (i would like to avoid as many as possible )

Secondly , can I update my Bangkok Bank with the "unstamped"passport   or will I have to wait for my return

Thanks again ....good call on the desk being open for checking before midnight !

Have to look into that !

Nice forum ....ta

Thank you all for your swift and helpful replies ....I think I'll go through before midnight ...don't fancy extra stamps in the passport ,

Only lose a few hours sleep ,,??

Hi ,hope this is the right place .

I'm in Thailand on a tourist visa, and have extended it for 30 days .

I just booked an air ticket to leave, misread the extension , and have a ticket that leaves on 21st ...not 20th

   Flight is early morning ....can I go through passport control before 12.00 midnight to avoid a fine ?

To change the ticket costs $75 , I presume any fine would be less than that if I do have to pay

  Do they stamp anything bad in the passport .....or is there any other way round this .....advice gratefully received.....Phil
