Hey Deep Peeps,
We’ve got an episode in the works about kissing bugs! These are big, colorful insects with a long head that feed on your blood and can pass on the parasite that causes Chagas disease, which can be deadly. It’s the most common parasitic disease in Latin America and some 300,000 infected people are believed to live in the U.S.
Do you have any questions about kissing bugs for our team? Post them here, and we’ll try to answer them in the video!
