Amy Stewart's choice to highlight insects like the louse that affected Napoleon is intriguing. I wonder what led her to explore these particular stories and their impact.

The stories about how bugs influenced major events are both creepy and captivating. I’m curious if others felt similarly or if it made them rethink nature’s role in history.

The selection of bugs like the louse and others seems very deliberate. I wonder what criteria or research process guided her choices for these 'wicked' insects.
