Abstract

The article focuses on the resurgence of bedbugs and attributes it to factors like globalization, climate change, and the evolution of these pests, which have developed resistance to common insecticides. The rising prevalence of bedbugs in cities is linked to their ability to thrive in warm environments with many hiding spots, while their resistance to insecticides and limited alternatives for control present challenges.
