Change is the rule of this world. From humans to animals and from insects to trees and plants, everything in the world changes. Organisms also change according to changes in weather, conditions and nature. Recently, scientists have given such a warning about a small creature, you will be surprised to hear about it. These creatures hide in our beds and cots. Earlier you might have killed them easily, but now they have become merchants of death, that is because according to nature they have changed so much that now they have become 20 thousand times more dangerous. Killing them will now prove to be a big challenge.
According to Daily Star News website, scientists have come to know about a super-powered bed bug, which has become 20 thousand times more dangerous. Now it is 20 thousand times more difficult to kill this bed bug. Japanese researchers have given information about this. It was told that there have been 729 mutations in bed bugs due to which even pesticides are not having any effect on them. The shell of bed bugs has become even thicker, due to which ordinary insecticides or sprays have no effect on them.

Bed bugs become 20 thousand times more powerful
Researchers at Hiroshima University’s Graduate School of Integrated Sciences have discovered a super bug that has 20 thousand times more resistance to pyrethroids. This is the most common type of pesticide. Experts claim that with this data, the problem of critters can be eliminated in Britain or other countries of the world because research can be done on them also due to this insect.
Bed bugs can cause problems
Bed bugs do not spread any disease to humans, but their bites can cause rashes, itching or minor infections in humans. It becomes very difficult to get rid of bed bugs. A female bed bug can lay 5 eggs and can lay 500 to 700 eggs in her entire life. This new study was published in a journal named Insect. Pesticides like DDT, which are now banned, controlled bed bug populations in the 60s. But gradually the bedbugs also evolved. Experts believe that bedbugs can be killed by increasing the temperature of the house. But it can also cause inconvenience to humans.
