Insects and parasites are certainly the most amazing and ubiquitous creatures on Earth. Some are attractive, others repugnant, but all have a more or less direct and immediate impact on our existence. Useful or pests, conquering or timid, dangerous or inoffensive, they meet mankind on all continents and throughout time. But how well do we really know them?

With its richly documented and humour-filled international investigations and captivating electron microscopy shots, "Squatters" leads us on a voyage to discover the many facets of these aliens that populate our daily lives: from the anti house dust mite brigades in the USA, to South American culinary specialties based on flies, via fleas used as live syringes.
