Officials have discovered bugs in the Paraguayan president's palace, although they are eating rather than listening.
The Lopez Palace - dating back to 1857 - is the seat of Paraguay's government and home and office to president Horacio Cartes in Asuncion.
The Public Works Ministry said the west wing is infested with termites but the main wooden structure is not endangered - for now. The head of maintenance said the government will call for bids on restoring the termite-hit wing, which houses offices and gala rooms.
