What are bedbugs? And do they really bite? What does it feel like? Seriously!?


Question:


Answers:
Bedbugs are flat flea like creatures, they live in the crevices of your bedsted, behind wallpaper, in light fittings, and along the edges of carpets.
They can be introduced to the home on luggage brought into the house from overseas or from staying elsewhere.
They can live without a feed for up to one year. They can be the size of ladybirds (ladybugs if you are american).
You will need a professional exterminator to remove them.
They are very resiliant to most household pesticides so you need the strong stuff that the experts use.
They do bite.. usually in rows of 3 or 4 bites.. flat, red, rounded marks on the arms.
If you have a wooden bedframe, look around it for their droppings and on the mattress seams. Their droppings look like little black bits of mascara, but are infact little bits of bedbug excrement.

They DO NOT mean you are dirty at all. They will come into some of the cleanest places on earth. Just like fleas who prefer CLEAN hair.

Google BEDBUGS . You will find some images and good information on them
Seriously.
