Ok, so you might be asking yourself, “Why the name “Bed Bug Bites Black People?” I’ll tell you: because it’s rare when a black person get bit by bed bugs. It must be from my Jamaican blood, but in my family we have only one member that has ever been bitten by this tiny creature. And who was it? Well…I was. Yep, that’s right, it was me and I am proud of it. Are you a black person that is currently experiencing the traumatizing experience of bed bug bites? Are you embarrassed to talk to friends and family about them? Do you feel as if they’ll make fun of you because they have never had to deal with this before? Well, there are solutions out there for black people. That’s right — I’m talking to you Garrett Jackson! Bed bugs are most active at night. They feed on humans, but will feed on other warm-blooded animals as well, including birds and dogs. Because of the size difference between bed bugs and people, bed bugs bite people all over their bodies, making the bites difficult to count and find. Black people can get bit more easily because they have a higher amount of skin showing (which is the reason why they are seen more often) .

Bed bug bites are not a sign of dirtiness.
The most common misconception is that bed bug bites are a sign of dirtiness. We have heard this many times. It’s not true! Bed bugs are attracted to carbon dioxide and heat, so they don’t care if you’re filthy or clean. They can live anywhere in the world—even in Antarctica! Bed bugs just like to live in places with lots of people, because humans provide both food (blood) and shelter from the elements (a host). So if you have bed bugs? Don’t worry about it! You’re probably not alone—and there’s nothing wrong with having them around
Preparing for pest management is key.
If you decide to hire a professional, it’s important to know what you’re getting into. First, give them a call and explain the situation. Tell them all of the problem areas in your home and how many bugs you’ve found. You’ll also want to give them access points so they can check for themselves if there are any other signs of an infestation (such as eggs).
Once your pest management specialist has inspected your home, he or she will come up with an action plan for dealing with the problem. This might include treating only certain rooms or removing items from rooms that are more affected by pests than others. If this is happening in one room but not another—for example, if the kitchen has been invaded but not bedrooms—you may want to focus on treating just those affected areas rather than trying expensive methods that cover all of your property at once (like fumigation). The pest control expert may ask about other problems in addition: Are there rodents? Rodent feces? Do leaks occur frequently? Is mold present anywhere? Are pets living inside? All these factors play into how much damage has been done already by pests before they were discovered; how many times they’ve returned since then; whether they’ve spread out over large areas yet; whether new pests could come through cracks around windowsills or between floorboards instead of coming through vents near where they were first spotted during inspection; etc., etc., etc…
The life cycle of bed bugs is interesting.
The life cycle of bed bugs is interesting. After a female bed bug lays eggs, they hatch in about 7-10 days. The young nymphs are called “first instars” and they look like small adults but have no wings and are orange or yellow in color before becoming more reddish brown as they mature. At this point, the nymphs will seek their first blood meal to develop into reproductive adults.
Unlike other species of insects that bite only when irritated, bed bugs feed on human hosts by piercing their skin through microscopic holes using two sharp stylets found inside the insect’s mouth parts (beak). Bed bugs inject an anti-coagulant substance that prevents blood from clotting while they suck up your bodily fluids leaving you with itchy welts or bites on your skin which can be painful depending on how many times you were bitten by one single insect!
Bed bugs are not just in beds.
You may be wondering how bed bugs end up in places like your furniture, carpet and curtains. Bed bugs have a tendency to hide in cracks and crevices of the home. They are not just limited to beds, so it’s important to check all areas of your home for signs of infestation.
Bed bug infestations can also be found in hotels, airplanes and other public places where people travel frequently. The most common way they get into these locations is through luggage or other personal belongings from travelers who unknowingly transport them from place to place.
A bed bug bite may be a sign of having bed bugs.
Bed bug bites can be hard to identify. They can also be mistaken for mosquito, flea or other insect bites. If you think that you have bed bugs, look for the following signs:
- Bed Bug Bites – Bed bugs are very tiny and therefore difficult to spot. They are not visible to the human eye without magnification. Some people do get bed bug bites but never realize it because they are so small and sometimes painless. Bed bugs feed on blood while they sleep at night, which causes small red marks in a pattern around the area where they were feeding (typically the legs). However, if you don’t see any evidence of them on your sheets or mattress then this does not mean that your home does not have an infestation of these pests!
- Excessive Ants – One way to tell if there is an ant problem in your home is by looking at the number of ants present around your house; especially those coming inside from outside sources like cracks between walls/floors etcetera… but I digress… If there are lots of ants in corners near outside doors as well as other places inside then chances are good that something might be attracting them such as food scraps from previous meals left out overnight which become covered with crumbs overnight due humidity levels rising during summer months here in Florida making this worse than normal conditions elsewhere across America where temperatures remain cooler due lack snow cover during winter months preventing moisture buildup indoors along walls where pipes run underneath insulation materials (such…
You might need professional help to get rid of bed bugs in your home.
If you live in an apartment building and are having trouble getting rid of bed bugs by yourself, you should hire a professional exterminator to help.
If you do decide to hire an exterminator, be sure that they know how to deal with bed bugs. They should have experience with bed bug extermination and be able to explain what they plan on doing before they do it. If you’re unsure whether or not your pest control company is qualified, ask them if they have any certifications in treating pests like mice, termites or fleas.
Exterminators will disinfect your home after removing all infected items from the residence. This means that furniture will need to be removed from bedrooms prior to treatment so it can be steam cleaned and then reassembled after treatment is complete. Non-disposable clothing items like shoes and bedding may also need special attention before being returned home after treatment because these items may harbor eggs which would otherwise hatch into new adults capable of reinfecting whole households over several generations unless properly disposed of immediately upon detection during each subsequent visit back into living areas during follow-up treatments performed by exterminators working under contract with their respective companies whose services include ongoing monitoring plans designed specifically for homes where previous infestations have occurred within recent history (usually within 6 months).

Bed Bug Bites Black People
Bed bugs are an equal opportunity pest, and not just for those of African-American descent. They don’t discriminate based on race or socioeconomic status. It’s important to keep this in mind when you get bitten by a bed bug—it does not mean that your home is dirty or run down and crawling with vermin. In fact, there’s no reason at all why bed bugs shouldn’t be found in the cleanest of homes.
If you’re living with African American roommates or family members, they may have been bitten by the same insects as you—but it doesn’t necessarily mean they’re dirty people who live in unsanitary conditions. Bed bugs can thrive anywhere if their environment is conducive to them (i.e., warm and dark). The only thing that gives away their presence is a telltale red bite mark on your skin!
