Parisian spectators had the unpleasant surprise of being bitten during their cinema session by bed bugs. The great disinsectization has begun.

Photos shared on social networks show a shoulder covered with a dozen pimples, or a bloated arm. All report bedbugs. The common point is that they all went to Ile-de-France cinemas. “To have had it at home, it’s a nightmare”, says a resident. “It doesn’t necessarily make you want to go back.”continues another.

A planned budget in cinemas against bed bugs

The cinemas concerned say they have stopped the spread of bedbugs for the moment. MK2 has a budget of 100,000 euros per year for detection and treatment, in particular thanks to specialized dogs. “Once the dog spots the smell of the bedbug, it will stop and sit down.says Élodie Quercy, bed bug expert at Eco-Flair.
