As you can see from this picture of a bed bug, it has two visible eyes, six legs and is about 3/16 inches long. Bed bugs are flat with brownish-red coloration although there are enough variations in color so that it can be hard to distinguish between different species of bed bugs unless you know what characteristics you’re looking for (more on this below). Bedbugs will sometimes get into your house through luggage or clothing from areas where infestations already exist such as hotels within urban areas or residences in outlying areas where pesticides haven’t been used as often because there is less risk for needing them due to proximity to large populations

To determine if you have bed bugs in your home, check for them in the seams of your mattress, in any cracks you see in or around the bed frame, and anywhere else where you might find small insects hiding.

Bed bugs are small insects that feed on human blood. They are not known to spread disease but their bites can cause an allergic reaction in some people. Bed bugs hide during the day and become active at night, when people are sleeping in their beds. Bed bugs do not travel between rooms by flying or jumping, but they do crawl quickly and can make their way onto curtains or other nearby surfaces with the help of clothing, luggage, or furniture moved between rooms.

To determine if you have bed bugs in your home, check for them in the seams of your mattress (both sides), in any cracks you see in or around the bed frame; anywhere else where you might find small insects hiding such as behind wall outlets/light switches; look for cast skins from molting adults as well as black fecal spots on sheets/pillows/mattresses/etc., which appear like ink stains but more often have a shiny appearance (photo below).

While bed bugs cannot fly, they can crawl through walls, ceilings with enough space for them to squeeze through. Bed bugs are most active at night when people sleep and their bodies are still, making it easier for bed bugs to get close enough for bloodsucking. Because of this, many people find out about their presence when they wake up in the morning to find bites all over their body.

Bed bugs are most active at night when people are sleeping. They are attracted to the carbon dioxide we exhale, as well as our body heat. Bed bugs feed on blood, but they can survive without it for long periods of time.

Bed bugs usually bite during the night while you’re asleep and your arm or leg is exposed (perhaps tucked under a blanket or pillow). You might not feel it happening since bedbugs inject an anesthetic into their victims’ skin right before they bite so there’s little pain involved. The only way you’d know that you were being bitten is by waking up in the morning with bites all over your body!

Bed bug bites look like small red circles on the skin. They can cause itching and irritation but they will not cause any physical harm beyond that.
