How to React If You Get Bit by This Bug

Assassin bugs, or “kissing bugs,” are rising in numbers, particularly in southern U.S. states. These blood-feeding insects can transmit Chagas disease, which can lead to serious health issues. When bitten, they often defecate near the wound, transferring harmful parasites.

Prevention and Habitat
Assassin bugs live in gardens, under porches, and sometimes inside homes. To reduce risk, clear plant debris and clutter regularly.

Symptoms
Chagas disease can cause headaches, fever, rashes, and fatigue, but many people show no symptoms initially. Seek medical attention if bitten, as early detection via blood tests can help prevent complications.

Stay vigilant and informed to protect yourself and your family from these pests.
