Crazy As A Bed Bug

We often hear and use the phrase, “as crazy as a bed bug” when referring to an insane person. Did you know that the term “crazy as a bed bug” originates from the 16th century?

Crazy As A Bed Bug

Introduction

There are some crazy misconceptions about bed bugs that I want to clear up once and for all. For instance, did you know that it’s impossible for bed bugs to be spread by cockroaches? Or that the reason bed bugs are so hard to kill is because they don’t like sunshine? Also, did you know that a lack of cleanliness has nothing to do with bed bug infestations, no matter what your parents told you? Don’t feel bad if any of these facts surprised you—they probably surprised your mother, too! If you’re still wary of these tiny pests after reading this article and want to take extra precautions to exterminate them from your home (or if your mother will only believe she’s rid of them when they’re truly gone), we recommend hiring a professional exterminator today!

Question 1

You are not alone. The good news is that you do not have a mental illness or a hormonal imbalance. You are not crazy.

There are many people who experience the same symptoms that you do, and they have them because they have bed bugs in their home or business. Bed bugs are found around the world, but they are most common in urban areas with high population densities and where people live in close quarters (e.g., apartments). Your symptoms may be caused by stress from having a bed bug infestation at home or work, which can cause anxiety about being able to fully clean up your environment for fear of spreading them once again when it comes time to move out (or back into).

Question 2

If you think you have bed bugs, it’s important to be aware of the facts. Bed bugs are not a sign of dirt or uncleanliness. They can live in clean homes, filthy houses and everything in between. They’re not a sign of poor hygiene. Bedbugs don’t care if you shower every day and use lots of soap or never bathe at all; they don’t discriminate based on how well (or poorly) your personal habits match up with society’s standards for personal hygiene. They also aren’t an indicator that your housekeeper is doing a bad job cleaning up after them either; this phenomenon has been observed even when good housekeeping practices were followed by people who had no previous history of having bedbugs before moving into their new home!

It’s important to know these things so that we can stop spreading misinformation about this pest and start focusing our efforts on finding ways to control it instead!

Question 3

Asking questions is a good thing, but you don’t want to get too anxious or worried. You can ask the doctor anything you like and he or she will be happy to answer your questions. You can also make sure that you tell the doctor if anything they do makes you feel uncomfortable. Doctors are there to help people feel better, not make them more worried or nervous!

Doctors are not judgmental either—if something happens that causes patients stress, it’s usually because there was no other option for them (like taking off an infected limb). Doctors don’t want their patients worrying about bad news either; if there is something wrong with you then they’ll tell

you straight away so that treatment can start sooner rather than later.

Question 4

Bat bugs are small, wingless insects that feed on the blood of animals. They live in cracks and crevices in the wall, floor or ceiling of a structure. They can also be found hiding behind baseboards, inside electrical outlets and switch plates. Bat bugs are more common in the eastern United States than western states but have been found in every state except Hawaii.

Bugs that look like bedbugs but are not include:

  • Crickets (most commonly confused with fleas)
  • Springtails (often mistaken for ticks)

Question 5

When you feel crazy, it can be hard to remember that you’re not the only one. Feeling anxious or stressed about bed bugs is common, even normal. You’re not going crazy—you’re just having an anxiety reaction to something frightening.

If you feel like your mind is playing tricks on you and making things worse, try these tips:

  • Remind yourself that the symptoms of anxiety are very real and often exaggerated by our minds’ tendency to assume worst-case scenarios.
  • Think through each potential problem from a logical perspective as opposed to an emotional one; this will help keep your thoughts more grounded in reality
  • Try writing down what’s bothering you about a situation; this may help clarify issues for both others (if they see them) and yourself

Question 6

You are not crazy. You are not alone. There is hope.

You aren’t crazy!

You are not crazy. It’s true that you have a problem, but it’s not your fault—you didn’t choose to get bed bugs!

If you haven’t yet figured it out by yourself, bed bug infestations are very common in apartments and hotel rooms around the world. Bed bugs are tiny blood-sucking insects that live in dark crevices and come out at night to feed on people (and pets). Unfortunately, they don’t always stay where they belong—they hitchhike in luggage and furniture from one place to another. If you’ve ever had an itchiness under your skin when traveling overnight or staying someplace new, there’s a good chance those were bites from bedbugs!

Conclusion

So, were you able to figure out what the common thread was between these six seemingly unrelated questions? If so, give yourself a pat on the back; we certainly had a hard time coming up with them.

As it turns out, the key to answering each of these questions is in the title; all of them can be solved by considering bed bugs. What do they have to do with Germany? Well, they’re known as “German cockroaches” there. How about a communist leader? Karl Marx famously declared that Friedrich Engels was “as red as a bedbug.” Or perhaps even a famous scientist and inventor like Nikola Tesla? He claimed that he found inspiration for his work in dreams about giant bedbugs crawling around his laboratory! Who knew they could be so inspirational?!

So take heart—if you ever find yourself staring at your ceiling at night wondering how you got here or what this all means, don’t worry; it could just be your mind playing tricks on you. And if not… well then maybe those giant bedbugs really are after your brain! Either way, have fun figuring it all out 🙂
