bed bugs

(Cimex lectularius)

Since the beginning of time they have evolved with humanity. For thousands of years, this pest known as bed bugs became dependent on humans, their preferred food. They are not interested in feeding on animals, only humans.

They hide during the day in dark places, in the wall, under the bed, near where they instinctively know we sleep. Bed bugs attack at night and feed silently. They are very small and difficult to see. We are not aware of their bite while they are feeding but in some cases it can cause a rash. There is no proof that bed bugs transmit or cause disease. However, the presence of bed bugs at home or in a hotel can cause serious discomfort.

For much of its existence, humanity has lived with bed bugs. But in the early decades of the 20th century, we developed biocidal products that seemed to eliminate bed bugs from the face of the earth. Now we know that was not the case and some survived.

For unknown reasons, a new variety of bed bugs began to appear in the world at the beginning of the 21st century. The fast-paced world of transportation and globalization has brought this bedbug infestation to every corner of the planet.
