Bed Bug (Nymph)

Indoor environments, specifically cracks and crevices near sleeping areas such as mattresses, bed frames, and furniture.

Obligate hematophagous insects, meaning they feed exclusively on the blood of warm-blooded animals, primarily humans.

Nocturnal and elusive; they hide during the day and emerge at night to feed. They undergo five nymphal stages, requiring a blood meal to molt into the next stage.

While not known to transmit diseases, their bites cause itching, allergic reactions, and psychological distress. They are considered a significant urban pest requiring professional eradication.
