Has anyone seen what a just-hatched bed bug looks like?

Posted by admin on June 25th, 2009

How small is a freshly hatched bed bug? We’re worried about an infestation but haven’t seen any signs of them yet. We did, however, see a very tiny bug crawl across a pillow of mine (it had been stored in the closet.) It was smaller than a millimeter, rather long/oval in shape, and rather opaque. We couldn’t make out details like if it had wings or antennae before we lost sight of it.

Most pictures of baby bed bugs I’ve seen show them being more round than elongated, but I don’t know if these pictures are of truly just-hatched bugs or not. Anyone seen an incredibly young bedbug before and can describe it to me?

Bed bugs? Pictures included.?

Posted by admin on June 23rd, 2009

I have bugs in my bed…but I'm not sure? They are small and remind me of the bugs you find in rice. I don't have any unusual bites on my body…but I've tried washing my sheets but they keep coming back. I've inspected my mattress…it's old but nothing looks necessarily wrong with it?

Please help…thanks!

I'm almost certain it isn't bed bugs. They are never clustered or in a row. They are always scattered. I see them in daylight and during the night when my lamps are on.

Still, I want to know what they are and how to get rid of them.
They are not earwigs.
vt_ctgirl: thank you. really, you're great. where do you get all your wisdom?

is the bug in my bed a bed bug?

Posted by admin on June 21st, 2009

i recently found a bug in my bed and i’m not sure if it’s a bed bug. i looked up pictures of bed bugs and it didn’t really look like the ones in the pictures that were reddish brown. i also couldn’t find any other telltale signs of bedbugs (like blood drips or excrement). the one i found was flat and black and reminded me a little bit of a sunflower seed. can you tell me what it is? it’s creeping me out… and if it is a bed bug, what do i do next? help!

any pictures of bed bug bites?

Posted by admin on June 19th, 2009

I have what I thought were chigger/bed bug bites, but they don’t itch. Anyone know what they could be?

Posted by admin on June 17th, 2009

I have looked at all pictures of bed bug and chigger bites. They were never inflamed and never itched; I have also checked for bed bugs. All the bites are on my feet.
