HW #6

I find this entire thing very gross and scary. To know that there are creatures living in your bed with you as you sleep, no matter how tiny, is so strange. The fact that there are billions of bugs of different species making a comeback along with bedbugs and head lice is frightening as well. It shows that they are learning to adapt and find new ways in which to better survive. They do not have much of a positive influence for us in any way either. For the longest time I had no idea that these types of insects flourished so much and came up so often. They are being found everywhere too, including some of the top places where you wouldn't want them crawling alongside you. Because they are coming into the country through people from other areas and easily spread, it is hard to find a way to prevent them from entering. We are lucky that they are not truly harmful but just creep individuals out.
