Bed Bugs

Guys let we talk about a small, elusive and parasitic insects known as bed bugs. Bed bugs are the insect's preferred habitat of infesting houses and especially beds or other common areas where people may sleep such as mattresses and furniture. Bedbugs can survive a wide range of temperatures and atmospheric compositions and when it's cold, bedbugs can live for a year without feeding.
When feeding, a bedbug will pierce the skin of its host with two hollow feeding tubes. With one tube it injects its saliva, which contains anticoagulants and anesthetics, while with the other it withdraws the blood of its host.

You need to know that bed bugs symptoms include itchy, irritated skin, raised red bumps, and inflammation of the area. Rashes from bed bugs look a lot like multiple mosquito bites. Rashes from bed bugs can appear on any part of the body.

Even individual responses vary greatly but bed bug symptoms do not normally require any medical treatment but of course you need to treat the infected area of your home so that the bugs die and no more in your home.
To treat the infected area of your home you need vacuuming the entire area; mattress, bed, furniture, carpet and so on.
