The bed bug bite is similar to that of a mosquito, but they can be harder to spot on black skin because they are often lighter in color than the person’s skin. Bed bugs are small, flat, wingless insects that feed on the blood of warm-blooded animals. Despite their name, bed bugs don’t just live in beds—they can hide in furniture and fittings as well as behind curtains and under loose wallpaper.

Bites from bed bugs look like other bug bites — they can be red spots on skin or red marks that look like a rash. But unlike mosquito, flea or tick bites, they do not itch or cause irritation. Bed bug bites are often found in clusters or rows on exposed areas of the body such as arms, legs and face (see illustration).
If you believe you have been bitten by bed bugs, call an exterminator as soon as possible. They will inspect your home and rid it of the pests.
