Bed bug eggs are small, blood-colored and hard to see. All bed bug eggs have a similar shape, no matter what stage of development they’re in. The eggs are extremely small, though you can’t discern this from looking at them, as the two images below show. Below is a comparison of two bed bug eggs enlarged to show the texture and detail. Now that bed bugs are becoming more of a big deal in houses, it’s important to know what eggs look like and how to get rid of them. Bed bug eggs are very small, almost the size of dust particles. But unless you’re counting dust particles or taking pictures of them, you might not notice them. Unfortunately, some people only find out about their infestation because they feel bites on their skin. Bed bug eggs are a problem to be dealt with. While the adults are small and move quickly, the eggs are small and hard to see. This makes it difficult to eliminate their population especially if you’re dealing with a building or multi-unit complex. For example, bed bugs can lay baby bed bugs that in turn turn into adults and make more eggs. Once they hatch from the eggs, they have no need to have them around anymore which means they’ll become homeless. It’s time for bed bug control solutions!

Bed Bug Egg

Bed bugs have a hard, shiny brown shell that is oval-shaped and about 1/16th to 3/16ths of an inch in length. The color of the shell can range from clear to dark brown. Bed bug eggs are not easy to see with the naked eye because they are very small (about 1mm) and pale yellow in color.

Bed bug eggs take about 5-10 days to hatch if they are kept at 80 degrees Fahrenheit with 70% humidity conditions. The egg hatches into a nymph which looks like an adult bed bug except it doesn’t have wings yet so it crawls around until it finds food then leaves its shed skin behind as evidence for where it’s been searching for food sources if you’re trying to find them during treatment or prevention methods when you don’t see any adults around yet but know there has been activity previously because these shed skins can be found near where one had been feeding on blood back when they were still alive!

Bed Bug Egg 1 is a Bed Bug Egg.

Bed Bug Eggs are laid by female bed bugs to reproduce. They are oval-shaped and translucent, and become browner in color as they age. The eggs hatch within 3-12 days, depending on the temperature and humidity of your environment.

Let’s help you identify the problem, so you can nip it in the bud.

The first step in treating a bed bug infestation is to identify the problem. Here are four key ways to do so:

• Inspect your mattress and box spring for the critters themselves, which look like small brown dots. Look for eggs, which will appear as tiny white specks (they’ll be difficult to spot at first, but you should see them when you look closely).
• Examine sheets, pillowcases and bedding for traces of blood droppings from crushed bugs — these are black or brown spots that look like dried paint flecks or coffee grounds — or any cast skins that resemble small grains of rice. If a blood-covered bug is visible on your sheets, it’s likely crawling around somewhere nearby!
• Check under your furniture (and between cushions) for collections of black fecal matter containing live eggs; this material looks like coffee grounds sprinkled with pepper flakes when dried out after hatching and molting several times over its lifetime.”
