Mr. Bedbug
There is currently an increase in bedbug infestations
due to an increase in foreign travel.
Bedbugs, hide during the day to feast at night.
They inject an anticoagulant into their host
to keep its blood flowing as the insect feeds,
as well as an anesthetic agent
to keep the host from feeling the bite.
A number of products can control bedbugs
but the difficult part is finding the bedbugs
so that they can be effectively treated.
Due to bedbugs desire to avoid light
and fondness for tight spaces
they are often difficult to detect.
However political campaigns
are always a good starting place
in finding such blood-suckers.
