Where can I buy a pen/marker that has UV sensitive ink that is only visible under UV light? Looking to buy locally in GTA... or is there a way I can make invisible ink?

Yep, just take a UV light to your bedsheets, and you'll see how.

I think I've seen some of these pens at the dollar store... not sure how good they are though.

I swear I've seen them as well, I should really go look again, I asked my friends and they think I'm crazy for thinking dollar store has it, and I haven't had time to check.

some detergents are sensitive ;) and some bodily fluids apparently.
