France has been forced to shut seven schools over growing concerns over an infestation of bedbugs, the education minister has said.
“Bedbugs were detected at various levels in … I believe 17 institutions, and currently as I speak to you, seven institutions are closed for this reason,” Gabriel Attal told France 5 television.
The French government has held a series of meetings this week to examine surging numbers of reported bedbug cases at a time when France is hosting the Rugby World Cup and preparing to host the Paris 2024 Olympics.

As someone literally leaving Paris today after spending a week there, this post was not fun to read... I guess so far we don't itch?
Apparently some people don't react to bed bug bites so there's no itching at all
About 50% people do not get any reaction from their saliva at all.
When you get home, for every piece of cloth, either wash it over 60°C, steam it, or freeze it for 3 days. Same for your luggage, shoes, backpack. Also freeze your books and papers Until it's done nothing can be free in your place, place it inside a closed trash bag
