It happens to the best of us – you wake up in the middle of the night, and then it hits you…you have no idea why! What time is it? Where am I? How did I get here? What day is it? Why are there curtains on the ceiling? It can be scary. After all, you don’t remember a thing between lying down and waking up – except for waking up, and then remembering that you don’t remember anything. It’s called bed bug memory loss, and it’s a fact of life (or death?) as a bed bug sufferer. Have you ever had someone tell you about a really strange experience? Something that seemed so far fetched, so crazy, and so ridiculous that you at first doubted it? Someone told me about bed bugs causing amnesia. Let me clarify something, I’m not talking about some half-baked conspiracy theory. I’m talking about someone who actually experienced this firsthand. Bed bug amnesia sounds far fetched, but before you let your imagination get the best of you just keep reading.
Bed Bug Memory Loss
Bed bugs are back!
You’ve probably heard that bed bugs are back, but what does that mean? Bed bugs are small insects that feed on blood. They were once thought to be eradicated in the United States, but they’re now making a comeback in urban and rural areas.
Bed bugs do not cause memory loss; however, they do affect your sleep quality. Sleep deprivation can lead to mental health issues like anxiety and depression—which may contribute to memory loss! If you have bed bugs at home, we recommend contacting an exterminator as soon as possible so you can get rid of them before they spread any further than necessary.
Avoid bed bugs by practicing good health habits
Bed bugs do not spread disease. They do not carry germs or other harmful organisms, nor are they associated with any diseases that affect people. Furthermore, bed bugs cannot fly or jump like fleas can. Thus, they generally stay close to where they feed on blood and shelter (like mattresses), but they do not have the ability to travel very far away from their feeding source once it is gone.
Bed bug bites differ from mosquito and tick bites in several ways:
- Bed Bug bite marks are not always clearly visible on the skin – there may be faint red marks or no marks at all
- Bed Bug bites tend to itch more than those of other insects
- Bed Bug bites often appear in groups at regular intervals on exposed areas such as ankles, wrists and ankles
Symptoms of a bed bug bite
Bed bug bites are often mistaken for mosquito bites, flea bites, and other pest bites. They can be red welts that itch or swell with a blister-like pattern or raised bumps. Bed bug bites usually look similar to each other; however, the true definition of a bed bug bite is one that is raised on top while it sinks in at the bottom. You may also notice that you have several bite marks on your skin at once which could mean there’s an infestation nearby.
Bed bugs usually do not spread disease but they can cause psychological distress by just being around someone who has them! If you suspect you may have been bitten by a bedbug then contact us today for treatment options!
Dangers of bed bug infestation
There are many dangers that can happen when you have bed bugs in your home. Some of the main dangers include:
- Bites and infections
- Allergies or skin conditions
- Mental health problems (such as anxiety, stress, and depression)
- Insomnia caused by nightmares or restlessness due to fear of being bitten while asleep
There are also other potential risks that may be less common but still important to consider:
How to treat bed bug bites
For bites that are large and painful, or if you suspect an allergic reaction to the bed bug bite, see a doctor. If you have been bitten by a bed bug and are experiencing memory loss symptoms, it is important to consider treatment options such as antihistamines.
As with other insect bites, wash the area with soap and water to remove any dirt or debris that may be present on your skin. This will help avoid infection from bacteria in these materials getting into the bite wound itself. If a secondary infection develops where there was no initial bleeding from the bite itself but rather from bacteria on objects like clothing or bedding then seek medical attention immediately as this may be more serious than initially thought due to lack of awareness when first seeking out aid for what seemed at first like just another mosquito bite!

Wondering how to get rid of bed bugs? Read on for valuable tips on how to rid your home of these pests.
- Call a pest control company. If you have an infestation, it’s best to hire an expert. A professional will know how to treat the problem and prevent future infestations.
- Wash bedding and change sheets daily in hot water (120 degrees Fahrenheit) for at least five minutes or use the highest heat setting that’s safe for delicate fabrics (wool, silk). Dry clothes on high heat if possible.
- Vacuum your house thoroughly every day until you’re sure there are no more bed bugs present—at least three times per week with a high-powered vacuum cleaner like this one from SharkNinja!; using a regular vacuum will not kill adult insects or eggs properly because most vacuums only have suction power equivalent to about 200 miles per hour compared with approximately 300 miles per hour needed for effective removal of these tiny pests by their legs from carpet fibers where they tend live most often when dormant cold weather conditions exist outside).
