A brief description:                                                                            

The Bed Bug (Cimex Lectularius) is a parasitic insect that’s a member of the cimicid family and Bed Bugs will feed off human blood unlike other members of the cimicid family that will feed of animals.

A full size adult Bed Bug will be approx 4-5mm in length and 2.5-3mm approx in width but newly hatched Bed Bugs and nymphs will be a lot smaller in size.

Bed Bugs are reddish brown in colour with nymphs being lighter/ translucent in colour.

Life span and reproduction:

Bed Bugs can live for up to a year without feeding, in the right conditions such as food availability and warm environment Bed bugs will have a life span of 6-8 months.

Bed Bugs don’t feed on a daily basis, Bed Bugs will feed approx every 7-10 days and after each feed they will shed their skins and grow in size until they reach maturity which will take several cycles over a 2-3 month period.

Bed Bugs on average lay approx 3 eggs a day over their life span than can last between 6-8 months but can live slightly longer if conditions are good.

Habitat and living conditions:

In Britain we had a large problem with Bed Bugs prior to the 1940s but over the next few decades Bed Bugs were pretty much eradicated from Britain, with the use of strong insecticides and a better standard of living and living conditions.

Over the last 20 years we have seen Bed Bugs make a huge resurgence mainly due to things such as cheap air travel and free movement around the world that’s been a factor to their reappearance.

We have also found that areas that are densely populated and have a higher amount of rental property with high turnaround of tenants and diverse communities have a bigger issue than other areas.

Some areas are having such a big problem with Bed Bugs that it’s possible to pick them up on public transport, they can get into luggage at hotels when abroad, can be brought in from family or friends and if neighbouring properties have a severe infestation their able to move from one building to another.

Bed Bugs don’t enter the property from the garden; they need a warm environment to survive so bed beds are brought into the property on a person or by second hand furniture etc.

Habitat and living conditions:

Bed Bugs will tend to live as close to their food source as possible and as infestations grow in numbers they will spread to furniture close by such as bedside cabinets, wardrobes, behind skirting boards, plug sockets and wall paper etc before finding their way into other rooms of the property.

Domestic dwellings make up the majority of Bed Bug infestations but as the Bed Bug epidemic increases business such as hotels and bed and breakfasts are starting to experience issues.

Health and disease:

Although bed bugs feed off blood and can feed off multiple people in close vicinity there’s no proof that their able to spread blood related diseases from feeding such as mosquitoes.

How to determine the presents of mice:

Bed Bugs can be at times hard to detect, not everybody will have signs of Bite marks from the Bed Bugs feeding.

As Bed Bugs are only visible when its dark and hideaway in areas not visible, their presence is not always noted for several weeks

People that experience severe reactions to being bitten will offer feel itchy, have raised track marks around parts of the body such as the neck, arms, legs, face etc   

Bed Bugs are called Bed Bugs as they live as close to their food source as possible so areas such as headboards, the fabric around bases on divan beds and wooden slats on beds are an ideal nesting point.

Other indicators of bed bug activity such as disturbed sleep, feeling lethargic, feeling itchy, blood spots on bedding and pillows as well as shed skins and obviously visual sightings are an indicator of Bed Bug activity.

Bed bugs are attracted to carbon dioxide emissions (breathing) and body heat so will only come out when it’s dark and food is available.
