I can smell ants and cockroaches. I can also smell when someone has been in my house hours after they leave. Its annoying as hell to have this sense of smell since its considered rude to point out that someone stinks. To me its like they are screaming in a small room.

I recently had to close my store for an hour, because I was the only one working and couldn't breath due to one customers bad hygiene. People treat me like I'm overly sensitive or making up my discomfort, but to me it feels like being suffocated.

Also I can totally smell roaches, they smell worse than any other thing in existence. Never smelled an ant though. Did not know that was possible.

Bedbugs smell worse than roaches. Roaches will make me leave a place. Bedbugs make me run in terror.
