Loose screws ..wtf will my whole bike fall apart!

So far iv lost one screw off the exauhst and the other one came very loose. Lost a screw off the air deflector and it ended up falling off. Lost a two screws off the forks and an screw off the kick stand. WTF is my whole bike going to end up falling apart. I know its a cheap ebay china bike but dam I didnt expect this, I would of thought the engine would have ****ed up by know.

loctite is kind of a glue that you put on the thread of bolts to stop the nuts coming off you can get it from any hardware store for a copple of bucks.
