Bonus 2020-2023 stupidity about "muh horse dewormer": Ivermectin and other close molecules are very effective at killing bed bugs that would feed on you.
They can't hide somewhere away from the bug spray. They have to eat. They were going to bite you anyway. But now they die if they do.
But "experts" who get to gatekeep access to medication won't let you buy those safe medications that are given like candy in areas where River Blindness ( from a parasitic infection ) is endemic. If there were long-term negative side effects we would know by now.
Ivermectin used to work well on head lice, but "experts" insisted you don't take an Ivermectin pill, but instead... use a shampoo containing it. This resulted in repeated sub-lethal exposure selecting for the most resistant lice, and now it's very likely it's not gonna work on the "line" that infested you. Well done "experts".
