2. What are bed bugs?
Bed bugs are small insects that can
live in the blood of humans or
animals. Adult bed bugs tend to be
larger especially after they have
eaten and they tend to turn a reddish
colour. Bedbugs can move very
quickly and the females can lay
hundreds of eggs.
3. Bed bugs can hide! But where?
Bed bugs can feed for up ten minutes! They usually
are active at night whilst you are sleeping. Bites are
usually painless but later become itchy and red.
Bed bugs can hide under beds, in clothing, sofas or
other items. They can fit into tiny spaces and tend
to live in groups.
4. Signs of Infestation
- Itchy areas on the skin
- Blood stains on your sheets or pillowcases
- Dark or rusty spots of bedbug excrement on
sheets and mattresses, bed clothes, and walls
- Bedbug fecal spots, egg shells, or shed skins in
areas where bedbugs hide
- An offensive, musty odor from the bugs' scent
glands
5. Most the times cracks in bed frames
should be examined, especially if the
frame is wood! Bed bugs tend to have an
affinity for wood and fabrics more than
metal or plastic! In this case metal is the
better option when it comes to choosing
furniture!
7. Bed bugs find smooth surfaces hard to
latch on to. Something as simple as
having metal bed bunk frames prevents
bed bugs! Wooden bunk frames are easy
for them to live and breed in. For Dorm
rooms it is essential you choose a metal
bed frame to save yourself from nasty
bites and to get the best sleep you can!
