Differences between bed bug bites and scabies
If you’re wondering whether your itchy red bumps are in fact bed bug bites, there are a few key differences to help you tell them apart.
- Scabies is caused by a tiny mite that burrows into the skin and lays eggs. These little mites can also survive on clothing, towels and bedding if they get away from their human host. This means that even if you don’t have any other signs of an infestation (like live bugs or dead ones), it’s possible to have scabies if you’ve been close with someone who has them.
- Bed bugs are insects that feed on blood—and they won’t be able to reproduce without making new friends with another member of their species first! Bed bugs aren’t known for spreading throughout communities like scabies does; instead they tend to stay put where they find food sources (like humans).
Bed Bugs
Bed bugs are small, flat, brown insects that feed on blood. They can be seen as red or dark spots on a mattress, box spring, and other furniture. Bed bugs can also be found in cracks around baseboards.
Bed bugs have six legs and are wingless. The adult bed bug is about the size of an apple seed (about 1/4 inch long). They do not fly but can travel long distances quickly through wall voids or plumbing lines. Bed bugs prefer to live in dark places near where people sleep such as mattresses or box springs (especially under sheets), couches and love seats, chairs and recliners. They can also hide behind wallpaper or wall-to-wall carpeting; inside electrical outlets; in clocks; fireplaces; under pictures frames hanging on the walls; along baseboards; behind picture frames hanging on walls; inside stereo speakers etcetera!
The entire life cycle from egg to adult takes between 10 – 18 days at room temperature (70°F). A female bedbug lays approximately 200 eggs during her lifetime which hatch within six days after being laid into a mass of white translucent nymphs which molt five times before becoming adults capable of reproducing themselves! Bedbugs live mostly off blood but will eat dead skin cells if they don’t get any food for a while which is why bites may look like pimples rather than actual puncture marks caused by biting
Scabies
The scabies mite is a tiny, whitish-yellow arachnid that burrows beneath the skin of its human host to lay eggs and feed on human blood.
Scabies is transmitted by skin-to-skin contact, and symptoms include intense itching, blisters, and a rash. The mite can be identified under the microscope; however, treatment for scabies begins before you know for sure that it’s scabies. Scabicidal agents such as permethrin cream can be applied to the skin to kill scabies mites before they have time to lay eggs or breed in your skin’s follicles.
Knowing the differences between bed bug bites vs scabies will help you identify an infestation faster.
