TRUTH !!

Also known as the conenose or vampire bug, this insect is very widespread in the American continents, with a few sub-species found in Africa, Asia, and more rarely in Australia. Its favourite choice of a meal is blood from vertebrates - which they seek out at night when their dinner host is usually asleep. Various scientists have linked this insect to the potentially deadly Chagas disease. The nickname of the "kissing bug" for this creature comes about from its very unromantic habit of feeding around the mouth of individuals.
