Bed Bug

Cracks and crevices in bedrooms, including bed frames, mattresses, and furniture.

Obligate hematophages, feeding exclusively on the blood of humans and other warm-blooded animals.

Nocturnal and elusive; they use heat and CO2 to locate hosts and peak feeding occurs just before dawn.

No known disease transmission, but bites can cause allergic reactions, skin rashes, and psychological distress including insomnia or anxiety.
