I have a theory that you could transfer bedbugs by putting them in water balloons right before you fill them with water and tie them off, that way you could throw them and have them pop then due to how durable bedbugs are they would probably survive to breed

When did you wake up and choose to be evil?

Well maybe if people didn't have easy access to bedbugs such as a mass infestation crisis they wouldn't be spread around so easily

Does this work for ducks too

[–] Kowowow@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

well they are free to take but I think their size would cause them to get hurt when the balloon break on impact, the smaller the creature the less it could be hurt I'd guess like how a mouse can fall off a building without really getting hurt

You need a bigger balloon

What about a spy balloon? If you put some bedbugs in a huge, high altitude balloon would some of then survive being shot down with an air-to-air missile?

you know what it's possible as long as they didn't get squished or burned but this all just theory
