Harvard contracts with Waltham Chemical to spray all the Harvard Houses during the summer when most of the rooms are empty. They sometimes encounter problems when summer students refuse to let the exterminators into their rooms or when the students have not had enough time to prepare the rooms for spraying, Berman said...

And the chili is hot enough to make an antihistamine spray seem like a good idea to clear smashed sinuses. Duck Soup is buried in the little jungle of specialty shops on Boylston St., but it's well worth the trouble to find it. And as long as the coffee is only a dime a cup, the prices will be hard...
