Abstract

When children present with features of bed bug bites, many parents are reluctant to accept the diagnosis. Furthermore, standard methods to detect arthropods in or around one's home can be expensive, time-consuming, and frustrating. We developed a simple, inexpensive way to provide evidence that the lesions are in fact due to arthropod bites. The Modified Onesie Biting Bug Assessment (MOBBA) suit utilizes simple alterations to a full-body onesie-type footed pajama, exposing some body surfaces to insect predators while protecting other areas.

摘要

当儿童出现臭虫叮咬的特征时，许多父母都不愿意接受这个诊断。此外，在家中检测节肢动物的标准方法既昂贵又耗时，还令人沮丧。我们开发了一种简单、廉价的方法，可以提供证据表明这些损伤实际上是由节肢动物叮咬造成的。改良连身睡衣叮咬虫评估（MOBBA）套装利用了对全身连脚睡衣的简单改变，使一些身体表面暴露于昆虫捕食者，同时保护其他区域。
