Bedbugs are tiny, reddish-brown insects that feed on the blood of warm-blooded animals, including humans. They are a growing problem in many parts of the world, and bedbug infestations can be both physically and emotionally distressing. In this blog, we’ll explore what bedbugs are, the signs of a bedbug infestation, and the steps you can take to prevent and control them.
What are bedbugs?
Bedbugs are tiny insects that are approximately the size of an apple seed. They have flat, oval-shaped bodies, and they are reddish-brown in color. They are known for their nocturnal habits and their tendency to feed on the blood of humans and other warm-blooded animals.
Signs of a bedbug infestation
There are several signs that you may have a bedbug infestation. These include:
1. Bites: Bedbugs often bite humans while they sleep, leaving small, red welts on the skin.
2. Shed skins: Bedbugs shed their skins as they grow, and these skins can be found on sheets, mattresses, and other surfaces in your home.
3. Live bedbugs: You may see live bedbugs in your bed or on other surfaces in your home.
4. Fecal stains: Bedbugs leave small, black fecal stains on sheets, mattresses, and other surfaces.
5. Unpleasant odor: Bedbugs give off a musty, unpleasant odor that can be detected in infested homes.
How to prevent and control bedbug infestations
To prevent and control bedbug infestations, you should follow these steps:
1. Inspect your home regularly: Regularly inspect your home for bedbugs, paying close attention to your bed, couch, and other furniture.
2. Vacuum regularly: Vacuum your home regularly, paying close attention to areas where bedbugs may hide, such as cracks and crevices.
3. Seal cracks and crevices: Seal any cracks and crevices in your home to prevent bedbugs from entering.
4. Wash bedding regularly: Wash your bedding regularly in hot water, as bedbugs cannot survive in high temperatures.
5. Seek professional help: If you have a bedbug infestation, seek professional help to eradicate the infestation.
6. Precautionary measures: Use of eco-friendly repellents is an excellent way to keep your place free of bedbugs and other pests. It avoids the infestation at first place.

HONOLULU (KHON2) — Beg bug infestations in the islands are a problem more common than you think. Now, a lawmaker wants to make it illegal for a landlord to rent a property known to have the pests.
They are tiny, flat, blood sucking parasites that often hide in mattresses, biting and feeding on their unsuspecting hosts while they’re asleep at night.
“The goal is that neither tenants nor landlords should knowingly rent a place that has bedbugs in it before they eradicate them,” Rhoads explained.
And, he said tenants should also be obligated to avoid introducing them to rental units and have to let their landlord know if they are experiencing them.
Montalbo said bed begs are hitchhikers. His advice to prevent bringing them home: check mattresses when you travel, inspect your suitcases and bags before you get home, and thoroughly inspect any second hand furniture you purchase before moving it into your house.
Bedbug infestations can be a major problem, causing discomfort, frustration, and financial strain. By taking preventative measures and taking immediate action if an infestation is suspected, you can protect your home from bedbugs and enjoy a comfortable, bedbug-free living environment.
