Bed bugs do not transmit harmful diseases to humans, but they remain a major nuisance pest in urban areas.
Bed bugs have genetically adapted to survive environmental changes that kill other insects, making them resilient pests in urban environments alongside humans.
Bed bugs prefer to feed on sleeping hosts near their breeding sites like mattresses, bed frames, and furniture cracks and crevices. They are attracted by carbon dioxide, body heat, and skin chemicals.
While complete elimination is challenging due to their resilience, pest professionals can significantly reduce bed bug populations and biting risks through thorough inspection, treatment, and monitoring.
