About Bed Bugs

Bed bugs are parasites who live on blood of any warm-blooded animal, most prevalent targets being humans.They are commonly found in beds and that is how they get their name, but they can spread anywhere in the living areas.Bed bugs cannot fly or jump as they do not have wings. Their small, oval shaped body and potential to live without food for a long time, enable them to reside and shove anywhere.

Easy hideouts for bed bugs are bags, folds of luggage, and furniture.These insects have two very predictable habits: they do not spend more than 10 mins on their victims, and prefer to stay close to them. Hence, are mostly found under the mattress.
