Pyemotes ventricosus Dermatitis, Southeastern France

Pyemotes ventricosus Dermatitis, Southeastern France

We investigated 42 patients who had unusual pruritic dermatitis associated with a specific clinical sign (comet sign) in 23 houses in southeastern France from May through September 2007. Pyemotes ventricosus, a parasite of the furniture beetle Anobium punctatum, was the cause of this condition.
