What is a bed bug
What is bed bug?
Bed bugs are small wingless insects that feed solely upon the blood of warm-blooded animals. They are a parasite that has existed since ancient times. There are at least 92 known species of bed bugs found throughout the world. The most common species is the Cimex lectularius, which is best adapted to human environments.

Bed bug eggs are tiny, whitish, and hard to see without magnification, as individual eggs are about the size of a dust spec. When first laid, the eggs are sticky, causing them to adhere to substrates. Newly hatched bed bug nymphs are translucent and lighter in color and continue to become browner and molt as they reach maturity. The nymphs are no bigger than a pinhead.

Bed Bug Bites
Bedbugs are generally active only at night, with a peak attack period about an hour before dawn, though given the opportunity, they may attempt to feed at other times of day. Attracted by warmth and the presence of carbon dioxide, the bug pierces the skin of its host with two hollow tubes. With one tube it injects its saliva, which contains anticoagulants and anesthetics, while with the other it withdraws the blood of its host. After feeding for about five minutes, the bug returns to its hiding place. The bites cannot usually be felt until some minutes or hours later, as a dermatological reaction to the injected agents. Although bedbugs can live for up to 18 months without feeding, they typically seek blood every five to ten days.

Repeated exposures to bed bug bites during a period of several weeks or more causes people to become sensitized to the saliva of these bugs; additional bites may then result in mild to intense allergic responses. The skin lesion produced by the bite of a bed bug resembles those caused by many other kinds of blood feeding insects, such as mosquitoes and fleas. For first time victims, lesions sometimes can be confused with poison ivy and spider bites.

Where bed bugs hide
Where bed bugs hide?
Bed bugs can often be found along the seams of the mattress or inside the box spring and corner guards. They can also be found inside walls, along baseboards, inside alarm clocks, picture frames, headboards and furniture. Many people have trouble finding bed bugs as they normally only active at night and are good hiders. If you can fit a credit card inside a crack there is a good chance that a bed bug can also fit inside.

How Do I Know If I Have Bed Bugs
Bed bugs can be normally distinguished through a visible encounter or by examining signs they leave behind. Common signs include small blood droplets or black fecal matter they leave behind. Small red bite marks in a row are also indicative of bed bugs. If bites are found a thorough inspection of the room can often confirm the presences of bed bugs.

How Do I Get Bed Bug
People are often exposed to bed bugs by coming into contact with an area that has them. This includes areas where people frequently come and go such as hotels, hospitals, cruise ships, airplanes and buses. Bed bugs can easily attach themselves to clothing, suitcases or bags making their way home with the host where they quickly lay eggs and multiply. Each female bed bug can lay over 500 eggs during their lifetime.
Get Rid Of Bed Bugs
How To Get Rid Of Bed Bugs
Bed bugs can be eradicated through the use of a professional pest control operator or by purchasing treatment products and following a proven treatment protocol. Along with either course of action bedding encasements should be applied. Bedding encasements protect your mattress and box spring against invading bed bugs and well as treat mattress sets that are infested with bed bugs. One of the biggest mistakes people make is to throw away their mattresses. Mattresses are expensive costing hundreds of dollars to replace. If the mattress or box springs are ever infested, they can be easily encased with bedding covers trapping any hiding bed bugs inside. Eventually these hiding bed bugs will die of starvation as they can only feed on a live blood source.
