About this trial

This is an interventional prevention trial for Sting focused on measuring Bed bugs, Cimex, insects, bites

Eligibility Criteria

undefined - undefined (Child, Adult, Older Adult)All SexesAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • On the site of takings presence of insects and eggs evoking bedbugs of beds. The identification of certainty will be made in the laboratory. All the insects not apartment to the family of Cimicidae (Criterion of exclusion) are thrown(cast) in trash cans of laboratories for organic products.
  • voluntary Patients after reading of the information sheet and the signature of the consent
  • Membership of the patient in the national insurance scheme

Exclusion Criteria

  • On the site of takings absence of insects and eggs evoking bedbugs of beds

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Morphological identification of every bedbug Porterage of bacterial agents Porterage of viral agents Biomolecular identification of the insect A breeding of bedbugs Tests of sensibility in insecticides

Secondary Outcome Measures

Study of the direct pathogenicity of lectularius C.
During each of four consultations a questionnaire and a descriptive index card(form) of the general and dermatological signs will be informed. The criteria of evaluation, associated with anonimisées photos, are split into two groups: general Signs and dermatological Signs

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
During the last years, the investigators were the witness to the increase of a old emerging pest due to bed bugs (Cimex lectularius) in the world. Insecticides resistances apparitions and internationals transports increases seem to be the reasons of the pest. Cimex lectularius as vector of parasites, bacteria or virus was often suggested although not much observation are recently investigated in France. This study intends to examine the vectorial ability and the direct pathogenicity of Cimex lectularius.
