Bed Bugs

Breaking Down Bedbugs

Cimex lectularius or bedbugs are hungry for blood. These ectoparasites primarily feed on human blood, but they can consume animal blood too. Once you’ve learned more about their behaviors, you’ll know why they’re called bedbugs. They hide in mattresses and box springs until the lights go out at night. These ectoparasites rarely grow larger than 3/16th of an inch in length, so they’re difficult to find in your home.

Reasons Bedbugs Invade Homes

Unfortunately, bedbugs can invade San Francisco homes rapidly. Once they’ve found a way in, getting rid of them will be tough. One thing to note is that many bedbug infestations occur after a vacation stay. You might’ve stayed at a motel that was crawling with bedbugs. Those bugs climbed in your luggage and you likely carried them home with you. Prevent this from happening by carefully checking the motel room before putting your items down and going to sleep for the night. In addition to this, some bedbug infestations are linked to used furniture and clothes.

If you buy an old mattress, it might have bedbugs hiding in it. If this is the case, you’ll take the bedbugs with you when you return home. Finally, you have to be cautious about bedbugs crawling from a neighbor’s place. If you live near a bedbug-infested apartment, there is a risk that the bedbugs will crawl across the walkway and sneak into your home.

Dangerous Associated With Bedbugs

Unfortunately, bedbugs can feed on any living thing that is warm-blooded. In other words, it is going to feed on you, your dog, and your cat. Nevertheless, they’ll prefer consuming your blood. Although they cannot transmit diseases, they will cause certain problems. For instance, there is a risk that a bite is going to lead to the development of a red welt.
