Bed Bugs – What Type Of Insect?

The scientific term utilized to describe the bed bug is ‘Cimex lectularius.’ The diet for these tiny ectoparasite is comprised of human blood.

Bed bugs have been shown to hop rides with humans and animals in search of a new host.

They are commonly sighted in hotels, inns, college dorms, apartment complexes, and motels, where they have access to different hosts.
