A bedbug or bed bug (Cimex lectularius) is a small nocturnal insect of the family Cimicidae that lives by feeding on the blood of humans and other warm-blooded hosts. Its name comes from its preferred habitat i.e. mattresses, carpets, sofas and wooden furniture. Bedbugs are mainly active at night. Bed bugs are becoming a great problem with us as we don't have any effective method to control them. Most of the insecticides available in market are not effective against bed bugs, may be because of their low quality.

Nice pictures of an engorged female bed bug. Hopefully there aren't more where that came from.

ReplyDeleteHi Anonymous!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment and sharing your knowledge. I think you have good knowledge about bugs. Personally I don't know which of them is male or female.
Hi Osaid!
ReplyDeleteI think you are a lucky person who never saw a bed bug. I was wonder how people say" what do bed bugs look like". We have to fight them each night.
Then thanks again...
