The French government is looking to enact legislation to fight a bedbug crisis and eradicate the persistent pests as France is just nine months away from hosting the Paris Olympics.

The French government has been forced to step in to tackle an infestation of bedbugs as the tiny, blood-eating insects continue to plague the country ahead of France hosting the 2024 Summer Olympics. Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne called an emergency meeting of ministers for Friday to tackle the bedbug crisis, which has impacted homes and the country’s transportation system.

Bedbugs seemingly disappeared with treatment by now-banned insecticides but made a reappearance in the 1950s. They continue to travel the world through tourism. The Associated Press contributed to this report.
