Bed Bugs

Identifying Bedbugs

The bedbug population in the United States has exploded in recent years. These ectoparasites feed on human blood, and this is enough to send a shiver down your spine. As the name implies, bedbugs are going to hide around your bedroom and in your mattress. Once they’ve found a way inside, they’re going to stay hidden during the day. When it gets dark, they’ll emerge and try to feed on your blood.

Most bedbugs are very small with few reaching 3/16s of an inch. Furthermore, they’re flat and oval.

When you got home, they jumped from the luggage and rushed to your bedroom. In addition to this, bedbugs can travel on used furniture. If you’ve purchased used furniture or clothes, bedbugs might’ve been hiding in the items.

Finally, bedbugs can indeed travel from one dwelling to another. Living near someone with bedbugs cause result in your home being infested in the future.
