"France's Battle Against Bedbugs Threatening 2024 Olympics"

Paris is grappling with a bedbug infestation ahead of the 2024 Summer Olympics, with social media posts showing the insects on public transportation and in movie theaters. The city's deputy mayor has called for urgent action to address the problem, stating that "no one is safe" from infestations. A recent survey revealed that about 1 in 10 French households have been infested with bedbugs, and the issue is on the rise due to increased travel and pesticide resistance. Bedbugs are not known to transmit diseases but can cause sleep disorders and mental health issues. Similar sightings have been reported in Marseille, prompting residents to take precautions to keep the pests out.
