  1. I have issues with mosquitoes, and with European hotel and homes not having window screens.

  2. Too many homeless people around.

  3. Lots of bed bugs in Michigan don’t think of moving here almost every house has one

  4. They spread like wildfire reproduce like crazy. I’ve seen photos of people with hundreds of bites on them in their homes so that’s a big deal.

  5. Have the French government watch Mark Rober's video on bedbugs. They might learn a thing or 2.

  6. Europe is becoming third world.

  7. Diatomaceous earth gets rid of them… Please only use this indoors though

  8. Growing up poor and not travelin and staying in hotels has its advantages, 😂 I caught headlice from school but we never had the bed critters.

  9. Good for them. Two invaders😂😂😂😂😂

  10. France declaring War on bedbugs. I bet they are going to blame Muslims and immigrants for this bedbugs invasion.

  11. Lets hold conferences and conventions on how to deal with this. That is so French.

  12. They are making a million tiny guillotines to have their heads removed

  13. Bug's Attack🎉…

  14. Bedbugs are the one species I would wipe out if I could. Even mosquitos have an important role in ecosystems, but bed bugs? Nah. eradicate them all.

  15. I wouldn't go in hotels hostels or AirBnB. Just camp somewhere!! Honestly they're impossible to get rid of at home. They breed quickly and hide in walls behind sockets .

  16. Everyone will go to the Olympics , which will be organized by Russia and China , where women will compete with women, and men with men

  17. Paris is Burning!!! Insane and disgusting. We forget about the Black Plague.
