Bed bugs are small wingless insects that feed solely upon the blood of warm-blooded animals. Their color ranges from nearly white or a light tan to a deep brown or burnt orange. Bed bugs are generally active at night while the hosts are asleep. Bed bugs seek out people and animals, generally at night while these hosts are asleep, and can do so painlessly. The skin lesion produced by the bite of a bed bug resembles those caused by many other kinds of blood feeding insects, such as mosquitoes or fleas. Fortunately, bed bugs are not known to transmit any infectious agents. Signs that you may have a bed bug infestation include itchy skin, rashes, blood stains on your sheets or pillow cases, dark or rusty spots of bed bug excrement or egg shells and skin that has been shed.
