.In a matter of days, France has turned issue regarding a surge in the event of insects right into a matter of nationwide anxiety. “They are all over: in beds, in movie theaters, trains, local areas and also even health centers,” announced Le Parisien, a popular everyday paper, in a cover story. French evening-news talk shows have covered little else.
On Oct 3rd Mathilde Panot, a hard-left participant of parliament, carried a vial of insects into the National Assembly, describing an “eruptive situation” in the country. Images of tiny critters creeping around train chairs have gone viral on social networking sites. On Oct 6th the French government had an unique meeting to discuss the bedbug crisis.
Is actually the panic deserved?
