Mob tourism is freying

Addendum: Air Force personnel have been sent in to fill vacancies and speed up processing as a temporary measure

Bangkok International arrivals are starting feel the strain at Immigration checkpoints. Four and five hour waits recently at Don Mueang Airport. To alleviate the problem, they rushed agents from Suvarnabhumi airport, which created long lines there.

Keep in mind, this is the low season. Such understaffed facilities causes overworked officials, so don't expect them to be in a happy mood.

Other areas of tourism are also showing signs of stress.

Mass tourism isn't all that financially rewarding, group and other discounts apply. More people requires more maintenance, quality suffers.

Don't want them bugs in your house ?
Perimeter defense !


Misuse of talc powder on your skin can become a health hazard, it can lead to various cancers. Stand upwind when applying outdoors, avoid inhaling the dust. Most crawling bugs won't cross when talc is powdery. Talc absorbs moisture and becomes solid, every day or so loosen the talc with a broom or brush. Add as needed. Applied powder immediately after the flood waters receded and ground dried, a lot of bugs where looking for dry places to homestead, but decided to look elsewhere. My experience with dogs and cats, they seem to recognize to keep their distance.
