Habits
Bedbugs infest homes, apartments, hotels by taking a ride on luggage, furniture and other items from one infested area to another. It only takes a female bug and a few eggs in a bag to begin a new infestation elsewhere. They spent their day resting in cracks and crevices in the day and when they detect your body warmth on the bed, they will crawl on you and feed on your blood. Bedbugs are able to survive without blood meal for months.
