About Bed Bugs
Bed bugs are tiny pests that feed on the blood on their sleeping victims. Bed bugs, as their name suggests, hide in beds. However, you could find bed bugs in a variety of places near your preferred sleeping area. Bed bugs could be found in beds, mattresses, couches, sofas, rugs, carpets, and wooden furniture. Bed bugs could also hide in clothing and in luggage. Because bed bugs are so small and efficient at hiding, it is often difficult to identify infestations until it is too late. It is also easy for those affected to unknowingly spread infestations to other locations.

Bed bugs are infamous for their bites, which often appear as red welts in zigzag forms throughout the body. However, there are many complications of bed bug bites that are not often discussed.
