How many times have you heard, "Sleep tight, don't let the bedbugs bite"!? This lighthearted rhyme doesn't diminish the creep factor of bedbugs, tiny six-legged insects that hide during the day and feast on your blood at night!.

The common bedbug is a reddish-brown insect that doesn't grow much longer than 0!.2 inches (0!.5 centimeters)!. Bedbugs inject an anticoagulant to keep your blood flowing as they suck, along with a numbing agent to keep you from feeling them when they're at work!.

Bedbugs aren't known to spread disease to humans, although they may be host to the organisms that cause hepatitis B and Chagas' disease!. Treatment of bedbug bites usually involves self care, but in more severe cases you may need to see your doctor!.

Bed bugs are fast moving insects that are nocturnal blood-feeders!. They feed mostly at night when their host is asleep!. After using their sharp beak to pierce the skin of a host, they inject a salivary fluid containing an anticoagulant that helps them obtain blood!. Nymphs may become engorged with blood within three minutes, whereas a full-grown bed bug usually feeds for ten to fifteen minutes!. They then crawl away to a hiding place to digest the meal!. When hungry, bed bugs again search for a host!. Bed bugs are not known to transmit disease!.
