Any hispanic people here? i have a question....?

ok, so yesterday i was talking to my mom and she sais something so typically hispanic. She says i should not eat sugar at night b/c of something called "bichos". i have no idea what that means and she could not explain it to me.

Can anyone explain to me what "bichos" are and what they have to do with sugar?
Additional Details
she said it in a way that mean it seem as if the bichos live within the body!

Obama is a socialist
In Colombia they beleive that if you eat sugar before you sleep bugs will be attracted to the smell. Ants, cockroaches, and others.
I dont personally buy it, but Im not all that keen on waking up with a cockroach in my mouth either.

i'm venezuelan and to me that means like a bug thats what my mom always used to say but i havnt heard it used like that since i was a kid

Bichos is a word to use to describe bugs or insects. In some countries such as Puerto Rico, that word is an offensive slang word for "penis".


Pinolera
It depends what country you are from. Bichos to me is "bugs". Sugar attracts bugs so that is why she told you not to eat sugar at night. Bicho is also another term for "vagina". Bicho raro is also known as "strange specimen".

It means bugs or pests..your mother was probably telling you not to eat sugar at night because the scent will draw bugs..more than likely, ants..
