bluberi 0 Report post Posted January 21, 2008 last nite i was putting back the ironing board into my HHS when my hubby saw some small small whitish insect, abit like ants running on the HHS feature wall... also realised dat there are patches of white white thing sticking onto the feature wall. when i used tissue to wipe it off, it seemed to leave a little wet stain on the tissue. i beri scared is insect eggs leh.. anyone experienced tis b4?hope is nt termites saw fm my ID contract dat it warranty the workmanship n materials for 36mths. if really kenna termites dat means their materials gt prob right? my hubby said most prob coz our HHS feature used alot of plaster on the woods to smoothen the surface, den nt really dry den painter painted over it. so nw gt problem.

Fyi those MJ table with green mesh is smoother to throw card compare to those traditional white paper. HK mj is good for their color & craving but they do not have 4 animals so u have to bring to our local MJ shop to crave. Malaysia MJ got alot of Joker, Fei and Blank cards but I don like their color & craving, fade too easly liao. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
