As if we needed another reason to have a good time

As I'm sure you're aware BED BUGS have reappeared and are becoming an issue. As such many researchers are studying the problem. A study from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln found that bed bugs avoid blood with a high alcohol content. Feasting on human blood is how these little critters grow and reproduce. Those feeding on alcohol laced blood eat less and lay fewer eggs than their sober counterpoints. The more alcohol in the blood they consumed the less they grew. These finding will be presented at the National Conference on Urban Entomology in Atlanta. Why do you suppose they don't do research on how to get rid of the pests? Is someone telling us it's ok to drink more especially before bed?
