Summertime brings pests like ticks, mosquitoes, and now, assassin bugs, which are becoming more common. These bugs, also known as “kissing bugs,” feed on blood and can transfer parasites causing Chagas disease when they defecate at the bite site. Chagas can lead to severe symptoms, including headaches, fever, rashes, and fatigue, and may affect the heart if left untreated. Many infected individuals show no symptoms, making early detection through blood tests crucial. Awareness of assassin bugs is key to staying safe outdoors, as it helps with effective prevention and vigilance against bites. Knowing the risks ensures better protection during summer activities.
