Bed Bug

Found in human dwellings, typically in cracks and crevices near sleeping areas, such as mattresses, bed frames, and baseboards.

Obligate hematophages, which means they feed exclusively on the blood of warm-blooded animals, primarily humans.

Nocturnal insects that emerge at night to feed. They undergo incomplete metamorphosis (egg, nymph, adult) and can survive for several months without a meal.

They do not transmit diseases but their bites can cause allergic reactions, skin rashes, and psychological distress. They are considered a significant urban pest.
